20 Jul sri lanka: your 2022 incentive destination
like all countries across the globe, sri lanka has also been affected by the pandemic, but during that time the country has developed – with new highways that will reduce journeys across the country down from 5 hours to just 2 or 3 and brand new 5-star hotels to really wow your guests.
sri lanka boasts historical and cultural importance whilst also offering year round good weather – making this an unforgettable incentive travel destination. in this blog, we cover how to get there, where to stay and the activities you must include in your programme.
getting there
sri lankan airlines schedule direct flights into colombo from london, sydney and melbourne. other airlines, such as cathay pacific and qatar airways offer indirect flights from destinations around the globe. upon your arrival in colombo, we can arrange coaches, trains or charter flights to other areas of the country.
where to stay?
if you are looking for a beach stay, either the bentota or tangalle regions are perfect for groups. hotels like the anantara, taj bentota resort and the cinnamon bentota beach all have over 100 bedrooms if you’re group is large. for smaller groups, boutique hotels like saman villas and cape weligama are pure luxury.
if you’re looking to really go all out, the wild cost tented lodges in yala are a must do. this spectacular luxury tented campsite is situated on a rugged, empty beach, overlooking the indian ocean and opposite one the yala national park, know for it’s wild leopard population.
what to do when you are there?
from catamaran cruises with seafood lunch on board, to visiting the oldest tea plantation in the country – we have something for all budgets and tastes. nearly all of the world’s cinnamon is grown in sri lanka, so a trip to a private, local plantation is a real highlight.
