Best Time to Visit Sri Lanka
Planning a visit to the beautiful island nation of Sri Lanka? Choosing the perfect time to explore this tropical paradise is crucial for an unforgettable experience. Nestled in the Indian Ocean, Sri Lanka boasts a diverse landscape, from lush tea plantations to pristine beaches and ancient temples. The best time to visit Sri Lanka depends on your preferences and the kind of experience you are seeking. The island's southwest monsoon, occurring from May to September, brings lush green landscapes and is perfect for exploring the central hill country's tea plantations. In contrast, the dry season from December to March, influenced by the northeast monsoon, is ideal for sun-soaked beach vacations along the southern and eastern coasts. Understanding these seasonal variations is essential while you are planning a trip to Sri Lanka, whether you're seeking ideal weather conditions, vibrant cultural festivals, or wildlife encounters.

An amazing all round trip - Sri Lanka is one of my favourite countries I have been to so far ! Sri Lanka truly offers everything from beaches ,mountains,safaris and forests. The people are so friendly and the food is incredible . This trip enables you to see the whole of Sri Lanka at a fair pace - you able to see all the main attractions and the lesser known spots as well . There is a perfect amount of free time allowing you time to relax by the pool or enjoy the hotel . The hotels were of high standard and the service at all of them was exceptional. I felt like we had sufficient time in every place and everything ran so smoothly.We were able to see and learn so much in the two weeks. This holiday was incredibly well planned and run . Thank you Exodus !

This is one of the best trips I have been on with Explore in a beautiful country. The guide was excellent, the walks were good, lots of wildlife and visits to some of the main sites in Sri Lanka. Would thoroughly recommend although the steps up and down to Adam’s Peak were challenging and there were plenty of leeches on some of the walks.

We arrived in Columbo to rain to be met by our smiling guide for the trip who introduced himself as Suresh. From there on, everyday was different, due to the time of year the weather was a little chilly in the hills but improved greatly as we descended to the lower levels. Suresh was amazing and everyday, he showed us something different and made sure our holiday experience was amazing. Suresh's ability to spot wildlife on our cycling trips was unbelievable, almost as if he had planted the wildlife!!. I have taken some amazing photographs from the holiday and Suresh has provided us with his amazing photographs also. Suresh always seemed to go out of his way to make our holiday experience better and better, he is a star. The whole team was incredible, nothing was too much trouble and they were always looking out for our best interests, including keeping us safe. Best Exodus cycling trip yet, amazing wildlife, amazing Sri Lankan experiences, amazing leader, amazing team.
