Sri Lanka on your bucket list? Here’s why you should book that trip with ETG

Picture this: You’re sampling a cuppa at a historic tea plantation in Sri Lanka. You’ve spent the day visiting the country’s pristine beaches, exploring the hill country villages, and spotting the elusive leopards on the island’s jungle trails.

The trip is planned to a tee, offering all of the immersive experiences you want, but without the hassle of having to find them for yourselves. 

This is all thanks to Experience Travel Group, an award-winning travel agency that specialises in luxury Asia holidays.

After all, Sri Lanka is the birthplace of ETG – the travel group began its tours there two decades ago and calls the country its “spiritual home”.

Since 2004, ETG has built a coveted black book filled with all the local contacts and knowledge it needs to ensure that every trip it plans for you in Sri Lanka will be one that you will never forget.

Whether you are looking to experience the country as a solo traveller, looking for a romantic getaway for two, want to go on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure with your pals, or you’re looking for a family-friendly destination filled to the brim with culture, ETG can plan the perfect Sri Lanka trip for you. 

Think: visiting serene wilderness reserves, discovering the vibrant Tamil culture in regions like Jaffna, or exploring the ancient Hindu temples.

Nature enthusiasts will love The Knuckles mountain range for its bird watching and local fauna, while those chasing adrenaline-pumping experiences will delight in the local train journeys through misty highlands – and the ever-popular journey across the Nine Arch Bridge.

With ETG, visitors can learn ancient martial arts with an Angampora mater, take bike rides through the hill country, or even try their hand at making hoppers in Galle.

Food lovers will relish in the country’s culinary offerings too, from bustling markets, to street food stalls, and small, family-run eateries where you can expect to be served everything from curries, to fresh seafood dishes.

Plus, booking with ETG offers a feel-good element too, as the company focuses on supporting local communities and wildlife through sustainable practices, choosing local guides, and community-run guesthouses as part of its trips – along with each trip including a ‘Give Back’ experience.

So, make your next trip a meaningful one.
