Moments worth sharing
Along the way

On the Classic route, Sigiriya brings the island’s ancient history into view before the journey continues to Kandy and the tea hills.
A change of scenery
Watch the island open into highland views and tea country. Train arrangements, where offered, depend on the final programme and tickets.
