Leopards, Tea & Temples is a privately guided journey through Sri Lanka, designed for travellers seeking deeper, quieter experiences away from the crowds. With overtourism on the rise, this itinerary focuses on meaningful, low-impact travel, including Kumana Under Canvas, a remote and immersive safari escape curated with our expert partners, Leopard Trails. Game drives here offer exceptional leopard sightings in a tranquil, less-visited national park. Guests also spend time at a working tea estate in the Central Highlands, learning the art of hand-rolling tea, and exploring UNESCO-listed sites such as Sigiriya and the Temple of the Tooth in Kandy. Stays are at small-scale, independently owned boutique properties that are part of the Ceylon Artisan Association and committed to sustainability.
