Sri Lanka is a great place for family travel. The country is rather small and safe, you don’t need vaccines and the food is not as spicy as in India. Specialist agency Sri Lanka in Style is a great option to prepare your trip there. The owners, a couple from Europe, spent years in Asia. Miguel is Spanish and Irstel is Dutch; they have lived on the island for many years and they frequently travel all over the country with their three young children. They know the best spots from North to South. Their team is super friendly and the service they provide is excellent.
Below is a video of Guido, Miguel and Irstel’s youngest son, on an adventure at the Colombo station.
