Grab your passport, it’s time to dust off the holiday hit list and explore somewhere truly special with Riviera Travel! Let us introduce you to the Indian Ocean's best-kept secret...Sri Lanka. And guess what? We’re doing it solo, because the world’s too big to wait for someone to join you on every adventure. And let’s face it, travelling solo doesn’t mean going it alone. Especially not when it’s this easy, this beautiful, and this wonderfully welcoming.
A Snapshot of Sri Lanka!
If you haven’t already seen the surreal photos and glossy videos of Sri Lanka, let us spark your holiday envy.

Our Top 3 Highlights of Riviera Travel's Sri Lanka Tour
We all know the most common question when travelling... "what should we do today?" On this fully-escorted Riviera Travel Tour you don't need to worry, its all covered! From ancient cities to breathtaking coastlines, here are our top three favourite included experiences that make this journey truly unforgettable:
Yala National Park
Buckle up for a wild ride through Yala National Park, where dusty tracks wind through untamed wilderness and every bend holds the promise of a wildlife encounter. From the back of a 4x4, keep your eyes peeled for elusive leopards slinking through the underbrush or elephants strolling across open plains. As the jeep bounces over rocky trails and splashes through shallow streams, the sense of adventure is undeniable.
Sacred city of Kandy
Tucked among misty hills and lush tea-covered slopes, the sacred city of Kandy is a step into Sri Lanka’s spiritual heart. Wander the peaceful grounds of the Temple of the Tooth, where golden roofs glint in the sunlight, incense fills the air, and pilgrims offer lotus flowers in quiet reverence. With its shimmering lake, colonial charm, and deep sense of tradition, Kandy is a place that invites you to slow down and soak in the magic.
Sigiriya Rock Fortress
Rising dramatically from the thick jungle like something out of a storybook, the ancient remnants of this royal palace are a must-see Sri Lankan sight. Stroll through the giant stone lion paws that guard the fortress entrance, climb the gentle steps to reach the top at your own pace, and be rewarded with panoramic views, mystical frescoes, and the feeling of having stepped back in time.
The Riviera Travel Difference
What makes Riviera Travel stand out? It’s all about the little things. Their carefully crafted tours focus on comfort, luxury, and authentic experiences. With intimate groups, local guides, and seamless travel arrangements, you’ll feel like you’re getting VIP treatment every step of the way!
Why Go Solo? Even Just Once!
Embarking on a solo adventure doesn’t mean travelling alone. It means discovering the world on your own terms.
Whether it’s born from a longing to see the world, the need for something new, the fear of regret, or the reluctance of those around you that spurs you to travel solo, one thing is for sure. You’re not in it alone. More and more people are trading the worries of the unknown for the joys of solo travel. With endless reasons to embark on a solo adventure, there’s no one face of solo travel. That’s part of its beauty. Solo touring is a place where diversity thrives, and age, gender, and background come together.
