Sightseeing train trip

Cognitive Vacation by Train

This is a 20-day combined tour, thanks to which you will get to know the most important and interesting things from the Sri Lankan past and present, but you will also have the opportunity to relax on the shores of the Indian Ocean or with an iced drink by the pool. Traveling by train will usually take place in 1st class waggon, which are air-conditioned and have a greater comfort than on airplanes. Only on side routes we will travel 2nd class waggon (there is also 3rd class). In places where there is no possibility of transport by train, we will move minibuses.
