Explore Northwest, East & Central Tour in Sri Lanka
Explore Northwest, East and Central Tour in Sri Lanka is a combination of the best of wildlife, history and culture specifically focusing on covering the Northwest, East and the cultural triangle.
The North East of Sri Lanka is a world distinct from the rest of the island. The community has kept its distinct character while being closer to India than Colombo. Because Tamil migrants from southern India frequently invaded and colonized the Northeast, the culture of the region owes as much to Hindu India as it does to Buddhist Sri Lanka.
In this Explore Northwest, East and Central Tour by Blue Lanka Tours, you are not only going to explore the culture and get to know the stories of the North and East, but also you will explore the North West with Kalpitiya and then discover the wildlife in Wilpattu National Park. With a little bit of everything, this itinerary is sure to cover the main highlights of the Northwest, Northeast, and the NorthCentral parts of Sri Lanka.
