Traidcraft Meet the People Tours, Fair Trade / Responsible Holidays in Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is a relatively small country rich in everything from culture to wildlife. Probably known around the world for its beaches and its cricket team, Sri Lanka has so much more to offer. This tour combines producer visits to Golden Palm and Gospel House with a first-hand insight into the ancient history, culture and people of this fascinating country. We travel from Colombo to Dambulla, and then onto Kandy and Nuwara Eliya visiting amazing ancient cities and temples and through some of Sri Lanka’s most varied and scenic locations. We see wildlife, not least elephants, before our onward journey to Tangalle to see the work being done by Gospel House in the tsunami affected areas of the south-east coast.

Our partners, Adventure Lanka are a locally owned company run by people with a passion for their country, its people and its environment. With a strong belief that all guests have an authentic yet responsible and sustainable experience of Sri Lanka, the guides are keen to share their knowledge and even teach you a few phrases in Sinhala to enable you to interact with the locals you meet. Adventure Lanka are always eager to make sure you leave Sri Lanka as friends and not as clients.
