Exclusive experiences with expert local knowledge!
This is a relaxed trip with minimal travelling, including a taste of Sri Lankan culture as well as time on the beach. Stay within the Dutch colonial fort at Galle, walking the narrow cobbled streets lined with boutiques, museums and cafes. Driving along to the beachside town of Bentota, you will be able to relax on one of Sri Lanka’s rose-gold beaches. Simply relax at your hotel or spend time visiting a local turtle sanctuary or village market.
On arrival you're met by your private chauffeur-guide and transferred down to the south coast to Hikkaduwa, a two or three hour drive depending on your flight time. Once here, you have time to settle into your hotel and enjoy some time at leisure. We would recommend taking a gentle stroll around the local area as this is an excellent city to explore on foot.

Today undertake a private city tour of Galle with your chauffeur guide. Galle is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is home to a beautiful Dutch fort, with quaint streets and pretty walkways. The fort area is the largest remaining fortress of its kind in Asia.
Today is free for you to independently explore Galle/Hikkaduwa and the surrounding areas. **Optional: if it is the right season, you have the chance to arrange a whale watching excursion. Blue and Sperm whales are often spotted in the ocean off the south coast
This morning drive back along the coast with your chauffeur guide to the sleepy town of Bentota and the beautiful crescent shaped beaches. This journey takes about one and a half hours but you might like to stop to explore along the way. In the afternoon your chauffeur-guide can take you to the lovely Brief Garden which is just outside of Bentota. Previously the home of the landscape architect Bevis Bawa, the gardens make for an interesting afternoon excursion. Read more
Enjoy a day at leisure today in Bentota. We would recommend going to visit a nearby turtle hatchery where a local project is helping to release baby turtles back into the ocean or a boat ride in Madu River.
Day at your own leisure. Bentota has some of the best beaches in this region of Sri Lanka, so this is a great chance to sit back and relax in the tropical sunshine
Transfer to airport for departure.
We had a great time visiting both the highland and the south coast. We saw some lovely nature on our drive through some of the country. We had good contact with the the traveller agency when we were in Sri Lanka, and we could even change some of the plans during the stay. The roads in Sri Lanka is not as good as in Europe, so be aware of the lenght on the drive each day. Read more
I am afraid another good review will make people sceptical. Too good to be true? No, this is a genuine report - cross my heart. I travelled with Euphoria in August 2014 together with my 16 year old daughter. It was our first trip to Sri Lanka and Euphoria helped make it an enjoyable one. Our itinerary was truly tailormade to our needs and it felt right to us. Response time was minimal and Euphoria stayed in touch throughout our trip. We toured for 10 days, got to see the main sites without feeling awfully rushed and stayed at pleasant hotels. Our driver was always friendly, willing to accommodate us and a very knowledgable guide on top. He even managed to make us feel (almost) safe in the crazy Sri Lankan traffic. All in all, i can wholeheartedly recommend Euphoria Exotic Holidays - and will do so to family and friends. In fact, I am planning a return visit just now - with Euphoria. P.S. We stopped at Euphoria Spice Garden for a cooking lesson and lunch. It was great fun and one of our best meals on the island. Don't miss out! Read more
Sri Lanka is such a beautiful place where people are so friendly and food is just amazing. If you are thinking of planning a trip to Sri Lanka, do not look anywhere else!! I usually book all our holidays myself as I am very picky and believe that travel agents can cost a lot of money but this time due to time constraint I decided to book my trip with Sashini via Euphoria Exotic Holidays and it turned out to be the best decision ever! We travelled to Sri Lanka from 18th April 2016 for 18 days with a 2 year old. We provided the dates and roughly what we wanted to see to Sashini and within days she put an amazing itinerary together. We were quite demanding and specific as were worried about travelling with an infant but for Sashini none of our questions or request was too much and she delivered everything as promised. Our itinerary was so well done that I could have not done better myself: • She ensured that we can see all possible in the time we had without getting too tired with our little one. • We had a very good, clean and comfortable Air conditioning car • Our driver/guide : Vijitha he was just the best: very knowledgeable, organised, kind , so punctual and he went above and beyond his responsibilities to ensure we were safe, comfortable and helped us lots with our baby • We stayed in 6 different hotels throughout the trip and they were all just amazing. They were clean, great food, it also had all we asked for such as Baby cot, swimming pool. • Cost – She worked with us to ensure we stayed within our budget and was very patient even when I was being difficult and changing my mind 20 times I recommend Euphoria Exotic Holidays to anyone that is looking for a well organised, comfortable and tension free trip. Sashini is not just very good at her job but she is also very kind and friendly person. She is not one of those people who don’t care about how your trip goes once she has been paid. Once we arrived in Sri Lanka, she rang the driver to check that we have arrived safely and that we are ok with the car and driver etc. She also rang on daily basis to ensure we were happy with the hotels and trips etc. and now that we are back home she still keeps in touch. Thank you Sashini and Euphoria Exotic Holidays for giving our family one of the best memorable trip of our life. Read more
