Lanterns in the Hills.

A Vesak Weekend in Kandy

30th - 31st May

This Vesak Poya, we're heading to Kandy for a slower, more meaningful weekend in the hills. A much needed escape from the city.

As the cultural heart of Sri Lanka and home to the sacred Temple of the Tooth Relic, Kandy transforms during Vesak: lantern-lit streets, decorated temples, mountain mist, and an atmosphere that's difficult to describe unless you've experienced it yourself.

With friends, misty mountains, culture and unforgettable memories.

This weekend means different things to different people and we know that. For some, it's a chance to unwind. For others, it's about good company, mountain air, late-night conversations, new memories, or simply escaping the usual city routine for a few days.

So we've tried to curate something that feels effortless from start to finish. A weekend that's easy, relaxed, exciting when it should be, peaceful when it needs to be, and full of moments you'll genuinely never forget.

No stressing about transport either. We'll pick you up as close as possible to your homes in our AC coaches and get you back safe and sound. Leave getting out and about in Kandy to us. Beautiful places, good food, fun activities, hidden spots, proper downtime, and an incredible five-star mountain resort awaits us.

To be honest, we're just doing this for the love of the game.

We've worked hard to keep this weekend as affordable as possible without losing out on quality, so we appreciate your patience.

Most importantly though, this isn't meant to feel like some rigid tour package. It's our weekend. So check out the itinerary ideas, tell us what you'd love to do, and help us shape it into something special together. There's no profit in this for us at the moment. We just want to see what we could be capable of in the future.
