Itinerary
Arrival Day
Meet your guide and get set up with your bike. After completing the necessary formalities, the rest of the day is yours to unwind or take a short ride to explore the bustling fish markets.
Day 1: Negombo — Sigiriya
The adventure begins! We start early, leaving the coastline behind as we ride towards Sigiriya. Our journey takes us through scenic open roads, with opportunities to explore ancient sites that few travelers visit. Upon reaching Sigiriya, enjoy a village ride and visit the famous Sigiriya Rock Temple. As the sun sets, relax with a refreshing drink amidst the stunning jungle landscape.
Day 2: Sigiriya – Kandy
Today’s ride is one to remember! We venture into the Knuckles Mountain Range, navigating winding mountain passes, scenic tea estates, and dense rainforest trails. As we ascend, experience diverse climatic changes, from misty highlands to lush valleys. The route takes us through unspoiled jungle paths before we reach the cultural city of Kandy by afternoon.
Day 3: Kandy – Nuwara Eliya
Wake up to breathtaking mountain views before continuing our ride through Sri Lanka’s central highlands. Today’s route features exhilarating mountain passes leading to Nuwara Eliya, a charming hill station often called “Little England” due to its colonial heritage. We arrive in the afternoon, where you can soak in the cool, misty atmosphere.
Day 4: Nuwara Eliya – Ella
After a refreshing morning, we head towards Horton Plains National Park, home to World’s End – a dramatic cliff offering breathtaking views. On clear days, the panorama stretches for miles, while cloudy days create a surreal, dreamlike experience. The ride continues with a thrilling descent through the Devil’s Staircase, leading us to the charming town of Ella.
Day 5: Ella – Yala National Park
Riding through tea plantations and waterfalls, we make our way to Tissamaharama by lunchtime. In the afternoon, swap your bike for a 4WD jeep and embark on a wildlife safari in Yala National Park. Keep your eyes peeled for elephants, leopards, wild buffalo, sloth bears, and over 200 bird species in this vast sanctuary.
Day 6: Tissamaharama – Mirissa
Following the scenic southern coastline, we journey towards the stunning beaches of Mirissa. This vibrant beach town is famous for its breathtaking sunsets and lively seaside atmosphere. Along the way, witness traditional fishing villages that dot the coastline.
Day 7: Mirissa Exploration Day
Take a well-deserved break by the beach, sipping on tropical cocktails and enjoying Sri Lanka’s laid-back coastal lifestyle. For those up for an adventure, opt for an early morning whale-watching excursion or explore the historic city of Galle, a UNESCO-listed fort town with colonial-era charm.
Day 8: Mirissa – Ratnapura
Back on the road, we traverse through river valleys and waterfalls, passing through remote villages and lush mountain terrain. Our route takes us via Kuruwita, a significant Buddhist pilgrimage destination near Sri Pada (Adam’s Peak), before reaching Ratnapura.
Day 9: Ratnapura – Negombo
Our final ride takes us through rubber plantations and deep jungle trails near Kithulgala, where the Kelani Ganga River flows. From there, we head towards Negombo, passing rice paddies and palm-lined roads. Upon arrival, celebrate your adventure with a farewell lunch and a toast to an unforgettable Sri Lankan journey.
Departure Day
It’s time to bid farewell to Sri Lanka. A transfer will take you to the airport for your onward journey, leaving you with incredible memories of this epic ride.
