Tropical Treasures: Sailing the Maldives & Exploring Sri Lanka
Board a traditional Maldivian Dhoni cruise and sail through idyllic turquoise waters and palm-fringed beaches. Our cabins are compact, but with plenty of room for two people and luggage. However, many customers choose to enjoy the tranquillity of sleeping under the stars on deck for at least some of the nights.
Situated just a stone’s throw away from The Maldives is Sri Lanka and we can offer an enticing opportunity for a trip extension. Let the holiday continue and join our 7 day “Highlights of Sri Lanka” tour.
From thrilling safaris in Sri Lanka, where you’ll seek out leopards and elephants, to delightful snorkeling in the crystal-clear turquoise waters of the Maldives, you’ll truly get the best of both worlds.
