A Sri Lanka safari — dawn and dusk game drives with a ranger.

🗓️ 6N / 7D4.9 (505)🏨 Safari lodge & tented camp🌤️ Best: Nov – Apr

₹53,999 / person

Overview

Game viewing is decided at dawn and dusk, so this 6-night Sri Lanka safari is built around those hours — twice-daily drives with a ranger, Safari lodge & tented camp nights in between, and all park fees handled. Sigiriya Rock Fortress and Temple of the Tooth, Kandy fill the quiet middle of the day.

Nov – Apr is the sweet spot for Sri Lanka (South Asia), and we plan departures from Surat around it — flights via Mumbai or Ahmedabad, Safari lodge & tented camp hotels locked in writing, and this itinerary from ₹53,999 per person on twin sharing.

Explera's Surat desk runs the whole journey end to end — flights, stays, transfers, guided sightseeing, Sri Lanka visa assistance and insurance — with a written day-by-day plan before you pay and a human on call 24/7 while you travel. Every departure is fully customisable to your dates, budget and travellers.

Colombo was our first big trip and Explera made it stress-free — visa guidance, forex tips, a sensible day plan and a driver who knew the area. Came back with amazing memories and zero complaints.

★★★★★
Fantastic trip with friends. The Colombo package was customised to our dates and budget, the safari lodge & tented camp were lovely, and they even rebooked one activity when the weather changed. Five stars.

Great value for a 6-night Colombo trip. Clear communication before travel, GST invoice for our records, and genuine 24/7 support. This is how a holiday should be planned.
