Luxury travel company Abercrombie & Kent has warmly welcomed the Australian Government’s softening of its travel advisory to Sri Lanka and is celebrating with special offers on its two ready-to-book private journeys. While the monsoon plays out across the country, A&K is advising its discerning travellers to book now for spring and summer getaways before the crowds return. Security across the country has been heightened and its ancient ruins, colourful temples, national parks and vibrant markets are less impacted by typical visitor numbers.

A&K has its own office in Colombo with more than 50 staff dedicated to delivering the seamless journeys which are the hallmark of A&K, securing added value for its guests and providing up to date advice, making realistic recommendations and giving guests certainty, reassurance and flexibility. For added peace of mind, the company has also introduced a flexi-booking programme with much reduced deposit requirements, relaxed payment conditions and a generous cancellation schedule.

With A&K, guests will discover why this dreamy tropical destination has enticed travellers for centuries – with its laid-back vibe, countless World Heritage sites, colonial architecture, endless culinary delights, acres of tea, golden palm-lined beaches and wildlife rich national parks. The locals are eager to share their beautiful island with visitors and are more welcoming than ever plus a jam-packed festival calendar means there’s a colourful Buddhist celebration to observe in every season.

In the coming months, the Hindu Festival of Lights, Deepavali, and the full moon Duruthu Perahera will take place. Whale watching begins along the south coast while surf’s up in the west. The tea harvest commences in the highlands and the Minneriya elephant gathering will occur. Whether a traveller seeks wildlife, culture, beach or active adventure, a journey with A&K through Sri Lanka will deliver on every level.
