Sri Lanka - Tea Trails & Coastal Tales

Tour Itinerary

• Day 1 • Jetwing Blue, Negombo

  Ayubowan! Nearly half a century ago, our legendary brand of hospitality was born on this very coastline. From the warm hearts of a Sri Lankan family, the values of passion, humility, integrity, and tenacity were brought to life in a charming beachside villa that has since inspired a world of luxury spread across our tropical isle. It all began here – at our original home of Sri Lankan hospitality. The home in which we welcomed the world as part of our family, and treated the world as one of our own. From mouthwatering meals to unique experiences, we have always been delighted to share the magic of our land with you. And today, as our timeless seas hold a wealth of stories past, we invite you to our nostalgic shores to begin one of your own.

• Day 2-3 • Amaya Lake, Dambulla

  Fly to Osaka. Begin with a visit to Osaka Castle, one of Japan’s most famous landmarks, surrounded by beautiful parkland. Stroll around Shinsaibashi-suji, a bustling shopping arcade, then spend your evening in Dotonbori, famous for neon lights, and takoyaki (octopus). Use one of your days for an optional trip to Universal Studios Japan or the historic temples of Nara, just under an hour away.

• Day 4 • Hotel Suisse, Kandy

  Nestled beside the tranquil Kandy Lake, Hotel Suisse offers guests a rare opportunity to experience a piece of Sri Lanka’s history in style. Originally built in the 17th century as the private residence of the Royal Granary’s Chief Minister, this remarkable building has evolved over centuries. Now thoughtfully restored, Hotel Suisse stands as a living monument to its regal past, welcoming guests to experience its timeless charm. Blending colonial architecture with modern comforts, the hotel offers a unique stay beside the tranquil Kandy Lake—where history, heritage, and hospitality come together.

• Day 5 • Grand Hotel, Nuwara Eliya

  The Grand Hotel, a timeless masterpiece, where heritage and natural beauty converge. Nestled amid lush surroundings, this luxury hotel in Nuwara Eliya, exudes luxury and sophistication. With its rich history, exquisite architecture, and top-tier amenities, it offers an enchanting blend of old-world charm and modern opulence, making it a premier destination for discerning travelers.

• Day 6 • Jetwing Yala, Yala National Park

  There are only a handful of places on earth where you may wake up to the calls of a tropical wild, and that too on an uncharted coastline. At the edge of Sri Lanka’s most popular national park, this experience is all too familiar in a natural habitat we have shared with wildlife for centuries, and now with the world for centuries more. Proudly emerging out of the coastal wilderness, our home of Sri Lankan hospitality in the deep south brings a sense of luxury and refinement to the harmonious disorder of our resident grasslands. Embodying the true spirit of nature, we believe in a sustainable coexistence that extends an open invitation to indulge in our hospitality, wherever you may find yourself in the world.

• Day 7-8 • Jetwing Lighthouse, Galle

  Over the centuries, the seas below us brought the world to these very shores. As the waves crashed against our rocky coast, we watched as foreign cultures melded with our own, in a thriving harmony that transformed an ancient trading post into the bustling coastal city we are proud to call our home. The influences of the world have shaped the very fabric of Galle as we know it. From the iconic Dutch fortress in the heart of the city, to the traditional fishing villages at its fringe, these cross-cultural charms have since extended into the nature of our legendary hospitality, and have been brought to life in an architectural masterpiece designed by Geoffrey Bawa, which will always remain open for you to come and discover our heritage of tropical luxury on the southern coastline of Sri Lanka.
