June - Sri Lanka by Private Car + Driver
Having your own Private Car + Driver is the most flexible - and cost-effective - way to see the wonderful sights of Sri Lanka. You can do sightseeing at your own pace rather that being tied to a group, so you can tailor things to your own requirements. Add some time on at the beach afterwards if you wish!
