We were able to travel all over the country while there: The national park lodges, if you can book them, are in spectacular locations and very affordable (Yala, Gal Oya and Wilpattu National Parks), a train trip to Kandy, visiting the tea plantations in Nuwara Eliya, Dambulla & SIgirya, a visit out to Mannar, kite surfing and frequent visits to Kalipitiya, north of Trinco and out to Pigeon Island, the history in Jaffna and of course Galle!
Plus you can get fairly cheap flights to India and Bangkok, which enabled us to see Goa, Bangalore, Rajasthan, Delhi, Myanmar, Cambodia, Thailand, Singapore and Borneo. - Mar 2017
