Even if you are visiting the island of Sri Lanka for the second and third time, it will still be a paradise island like no other. But for first-time visitors, it will surely be a haven on earth and before you make your visit, here is a small guide that will help you!
You don’t need to rush
Sri Lanka is a small country. So, you don’t really need to be in a hurry to explore this beautiful country. After you arrive at the Bandaranaike International Airport in Sri Lanka, don’t start travelling from that very moment itself. Try and rest at one of the hotels near Katunayake Airport and take it slow from the next day. There are many good options such as Amagi Aria to serve you at this point.
Give yourself an Ayurvedic bliss
To relieve all your stress and tiredness, Sri Lankan Ayurveda treatments can help you out. You will be able to get these treatments either at your hotel or even at a separate Ayurvedic spa. Sri Lanka is famous for them!
Always have change-money with you
Although hotels, big shopping malls, and restaurants accept credit card payments, you will need some changed cash always in your pocket to pay for tuk-tuks and other small vendors.
Eat like a local
When in Sri Lanka, it’s always a good idea to eat like a local. Say no to spoons and forks, and use your hands to eat! You will surely find your meals to be super delicious this way.
