Two incredible countries, one epic adventure. India and Sri Lanka are a perfect match — think rich history, vibrant cultures, mouthwatering cuisine, and landscapes that range from misty highlands to sun-drenched beaches. Kick things off in Delhi before checking off bucket-list icons like the Taj Mahal and Amber Fort. Get a taste of local life with homestays and village visits, explore the buzzing cities of Mumbai and Negombo, and trade cityscapes for rolling tea plantations in Ooty and Nuwara Eliya. And of course, there’s plenty of time to unwind — whether it’s on Goa’s golden beaches or soaking up the coastal vibes in Hikkaduwa. Adventure, culture, and a crew of like-minded travellers — what more could you ask for?
