A honeymoon should not feel like a tour. So ours are always private, with fewer stops, more nights in fewer places and a few surprises we arrange quietly with the hotels.
Two weeks for two
Slower than our usual tours, with the best rooms we can find.
Where we send honeymooners
Small houses where you are not one of 300 guests.
Adding the Maldives?
We do not book the Maldives ourselves, but many couples fly on from Colombo.

Honeymoon questions
December to April for the south and hill country; May to September if you want the east coast.
Yes. Honeymoons are always private with your own driver-guide.
Of course – flowers, a cake, a private dinner. Tell us quietly in your enquiry.
Our Sri Lanka honeymoons are planned individually: every Sri Lanka honeymoon tour is private, with hotels, driver-guide, entrance fees and special touches in one price. For luxury honeymoons in Sri Lanka we choose the island’s finest small hotels.
A planter’s bungalow in the tea hills, a villa with a private pool near Sigiriya, a colonial hotel in Galle Fort and a quiet beach near Tangalle are our favourites.
Plan your honeymoon
Why Sri Lanka works for a honeymoon
A honeymoon in Sri Lanka combines adventure and rest in a way few destinations can. You can climb the Lion Rock at sunrise, ride the train through the tea hills and end with a week in a beach villa – all within two weeks, without long flights in between. Hotels are small and personal, and staff love to spoil newly-weds.
Honeymoon ideas in Sri Lanka
A sunrise climb of Sigiriya, followed by breakfast by the pool. A private cookery class in a tea planter’s bungalow. A candlelit dinner on the ramparts of Galle Fort. A boat trip on a quiet lagoon. A couple’s Ayurvedic treatment in the hills. We add the touches that suit you – quietly, without making a fuss.
When to plan
For a honeymoon between December and April, book six to nine months ahead to secure the best rooms. For summer honeymoons, the east coast is at its best – and the hotels are often less busy. Let us know your wedding date and we will plan backwards from there.
