This sri lanka 11 day itinerary covers Negombo, Sigiriya, Anuradhapura, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Ella, Yala, Galle, Bentota and Colombo. Compared with our 10-day route, 11 days in Sri Lanka adds a full arrival night in Negombo, giving you time to settle in before the cultural triangle leg begins. Private air-conditioned transport, an English-speaking chauffeur guide, and airport transfers are included throughout.

Your Sri Lanka 11 Day Itinerary at a Glance

Looking for our most complete sri lanka tour package with a relaxed start? This sri lanka 11 day itinerary is it — a full night in coastal Negombo to recover from your flight, then everything our 10-day route covers: the ancient cities of Sigiriya and Anuradhapura, cultural Kandy, cool hill country in Nuwara Eliya, scenic Ella, a Yala safari, and a proper finish across Galle, Bentota and Colombo.
This is our fullest general-interest itinerary — 11 days in Sri Lanka gives you an easy first night near the airport rather than a long drive straight after landing. Every tour is entirely private: your own vehicle and driver-guide throughout, never a shared coach group.
