Tour Summary
Duration: 10 Nights / 11 Days
Wander & Awaken combines wellness practices with cultural discovery, highland scenery, wildlife and coastal relaxation. Unlike a retreat based in one location, this itinerary moves through Negombo, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Ella, Yala, Mirissa and Colombo. Yoga, meditation and Ayurvedic-inspired treatments are integrated with temple visits, a Horton Plains trek, scenic rail travel and a wildlife safari. Time in Mirissa provides space for beach relaxation and sunrise movement before the journey concludes in Colombo. It is ideal for travellers seeking a restorative holiday that still includes exploration, gentle physical activity and meaningful connection with Sri Lanka’s landscapes and traditions.

Itinerary
Arrive in Sri Lanka and transfer to Negombo for a gentle first day. Rest beside the coast and begin easing into a slower travel rhythm.
Travel to Kandy and visit the Temple of the Tooth while learning about the city’s spiritual traditions. Dedicate time to guided yoga, meditation and quiet reflection in the cooler highland environment.
Travel further into the mountains and explore Horton Plains on foot. The highland trek provides fresh air, open scenery and a restorative connection with nature.
Take the scenic train to Ella and visit Nine Arches Bridge and other local landmarks. Include mindful movement, yoga or meditation while overlooking the surrounding valleys and Ella Gap.
Descend to Yala and reconnect with the natural world through a guided wildlife safari. Observe animals quietly within their habitat and enjoy an evening near the wilderness.
Travel to Mirissa for coastal rest and gentle wellness activities. Enjoy an Ayurvedic-inspired massage, sunrise yoga and unhurried time beside the Indian Ocean.
Continue to Colombo for a relaxed exploration of the capital. Visit selected markets, cafés and cultural sites without an overly demanding schedule.
Transfer to the airport following breakfast. Complete the journey feeling refreshed by a combination of movement, nature, culture and coastal wellbeing.
