ABOUT SRI LANKA

Welcome to Sri Lanka, a land full of stunning natural beauty, vibrant culture, and warm hospitality. An island where the sun shines every day, and coconut palms sway gently to the warm sea breeze. From northern Hindu temples to ancient kingdoms and tropical jungles, the beauty of Sri Lanka grows greater the deeper you ride into its heartland.

Think of a land where smiles are plenty; and a dose of island hospitality rooted in every soul you meet. A place where the aroma of warm, sizzling coconut oil wafts through the kitchen windows and fishers offload the freshest catch in the wee hours of the morning.

Our cycling tours focus on capturing the best of Sri Lanka through a mix of well-trodden journeys and rugged pathways known to a few. Sri Lanka is the ideal place for you to cycle in, whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced cyclist. From seemingly easy flat coastal highways to rugged zigzagging pathways in the central hills, Sri Lanka has a lot to offer for cycling enthusiasts.

Although a small island nation, Sri Lanka packs a punch with its history spanning over 2000 years, with influences from its past colonial rulers—the Portuguese, Dutch and British. A country shaped by a series of historical invasions from neighboring India and migrations of different cultures and communities across the world who walked through the island and settled down, Sri Lanka has a truly unique identity today. An amalgamation of cultures and communities, the diversity shines through the island’s rich cuisine and festivities. And despite the diversity it boasts of, one thing remains universal across the island; locals here in this tropical island are warm and friendly, and you will instantly feel at home with our welcoming hospitality in Sri Lanka. With love, laughter, and adventure, come with us to enjoy this amazing country on a cycle.
