HONEYMOON IN SRI LANKA
Unforgettable, varied honeymoon on the tropical island
Did you know that Sri Lanka is THE dream destination for all honeymooners who want to experience a varied honeymoon without being bored? Here we give you an overview of the many options for an unforgettable honeymoon in Sri Lanka and some tips to make your first trip as a married couple the best vacation of your life.
Is Sri Lanka suitable for a honeymoon?
Sri Lanka is the perfect choice for your honeymoon if you want to experience a varied holiday without being bored. The small island offers everything you could want for a successful honeymoon: unique hotels (in every price segment), great travel weather, indescribably beautiful beaches and many adventure opportunities to discover another world together. You can also experience many unforgettable adventures in Sri Lanka that make your first vacation as a married couple something very special.
When is the best time to travel to Sri Lanka for a honeymoon?
A honeymoon trip in Sri Lanka can take place all year round, you just have to know when you should travel where so that you are likely to have good travel weather. Sri Lanka is a good travel destination all year round because it is always in season somewhere on the island (see our information on the best time to travel to Sri Lanka).
If you are planning a honeymoon in Sri Lanka, it is only important that you take the respective travel time into account when planning the itinerary and beach vacation. Unfortunately, there is still no cure for the unpredictability of the weather, but with good planning you usually have a huge advantage because you can at least exclude the areas that are definitely “bad”.
Which Sri Lanka trip is recommended for a honeymoon?
Which Sri Lanka trip is best for your honeymoon actually depends entirely on your vacation wishes. Would you like to experience a lot of action and adventure or would you rather take the trip calmly and comfortably and focus on romantic togetherness? Would you like to stay in small, traditional guesthouses to be close to the people or would you like to be pampered from head to toe in unique hotels with lots of comfort? Or should it be a colorful mix so that you can experience the beautiful island from all its sides?
In any case, we recommend that you not only spend your time in Sri Lanka on a beach holiday, but also plan at least a short tour. The beautiful island offers such diversity and so many experiences that it would be a shame if you only discovered one of the many beautiful sides of Sri Lanka during your honeymoon.
Tour tips for a honeymoon in Sri Lanka
Since your honeymoon should be individual and unique, we always plan it completely tailor-made for you (see dream trip questionnaire). What your personal dream trip will look like depends primarily on your wishes and travel interests. However, the time available to you in Sri Lanka (the possible travel duration), your travel time (the travel month) and your travel budget are also crucial.
In this context, Sri Lanka really offers endless possibilities for designing tour routes. To give you a rough idea of what your honeymoon trip in Sri Lanka could look like, we have three (very different) tour tips for you here:
Tip 1: The diverse classic tour
If you would like to get to know Sri Lanka from all sides and get a good overview of the diversity of the small island, we recommend our highlights Sri Lanka tour (or a variant of it). On this wonderful tour you will see (at least) a little bit of everything in just 8 days: history, culture, nature and animals.
We always adapt the route to the respective month of travel, which means the trip can take place all year round. It is therefore perfect to combine with a beach holiday on both the south/west coast and the east coast. Our highlights Sri Lanka tour is a real all-rounder and also a good reference point for more individual route planning.
Hotel tip: This trip is best when you choose a colorful mix of accommodations. From small, charming guesthouses to luxury hotels, everything can (and should) be there. This way you can experience the diversity of Sri Lanka twice.
Tip 2: The active adventure tours
For all newlyweds who want to spend an active, adventurous honeymoon, we recommend our adventure trip (or a variant thereof). Our adventure trip is particularly suitable for the winter months – i.e. the travel period between November and April. Hikes, jeep safaris, a whale watching tour, snorkeling and turtle watching are just some of the highlights on this exciting tour of Sri Lanka. If you want to experience a lot with your partner on your honeymoon and if you prefer to be sporty and active, then this trip is definitely right for you.
Hotel tip: Romantic adventure accommodations such as a treehouse or a safari tented lodge go well with this trip.
Tip 3: The cozy relaxing tour
Would you like less action and more cozy togetherness for your honeymoon? Then we recommend a slow travel Sri Lanka trip. Slow travel trips can be planned for each travel month and can therefore be optimally combined with beach stays on all coasts of Sri Lanka. These tours are characterized by few hotel changes, a small daily program and plenty of time to relax. The motto here is to discover Sri Lanka, but not all at once, but rather in a comfortable and relaxed manner. The more time you have for this trip, the better.
Hotel tip: Since you spend a lot of time in the hotels on a slow travel trip, we recommend good, comfortable accommodation for this trip and – depending on your travel budget – something luxurious. Some nice accommodation suggestions can be found at Hotels in Sri Lanka.
