Later explore Kandy’s charming sights and your stay here is at Kandy House, a wonderful boutique hotel that exudes effortless intimate luxury. Proceed further west in Hill Country to Dickoya, where Sri Lanka’s mesmerizing beauty lies in the undulating tea plantations. Our favourite spot here is the Camellia Hills. Few locations in Sri Lanka, can match the panoramic splendour of the Castlereagh Valley, in the island’s western hill country, and this is the setting for five-bedroom Camellia Hills. Days at leisure or choose from a range of relaxed activities to fill up your day as and when you would like.

We very much enjoyed Sri Lanka and appreciated your efforts in putting together a good itinerary in what was a really a short time and close to the planned departure date. The hotels were good and met our expectations, especially the Amaya Hills in Kandy. Our driver was very experienced in hotel management and kept us highly informed about the places we visited and the local site guides he selected were excellent. Qatar Airlines were excellent and our stay in Doha was superb.
