How much does a Sri Lanka trip from Delhi cost?

Budget about Rs 49,000 to Rs 90,000 per person for the land package, depending on the number of nights and the hotel star rating. A standard 5 nights, 6 days trip for a couple sits near the lower end; a 7 nights, 8 days luxury or multi-country trip sits near the top. Return Delhi to Colombo flights usually add about Rs 20,000 to 23,000 per person unless your package is sold flight-inclusive. The figures below are per person on twin-sharing and exclude flights unless noted.

These are land costs; add return airfare where it is not bundled. For a full India-wide budget breakdown by season and style, see our Sri Lanka trip cost guide.

Flights from Delhi to Sri Lanka

The Delhi to Colombo route is a short international hop. SriLankan Airlines flies it non-stop in about 3 hours 35 minutes, and Air India and IndiGo run direct services depending on the day. Return economy fares from Delhi typically run about Rs 20,000 to 23,000 per person, so most travellers book the land package with us and add flights, or choose a flight-inclusive option like the Sri Lanka and Maldives trip above. Colombo's Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB) is about 35 km north of the city, and most packages include the airport transfer to your first hotel.

Visa and ETA for Indian travellers from Delhi

Indian passport holders need an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) to enter Sri Lanka. Apply online before you fly, carry a passport valid for at least six months, and keep a printout of the approval and your return ticket for immigration. The standard tourist ETA covers a 30-day stay and is usually approved within a day or two. The ETA is currently free of charge for Indian passport holders, though rules can change, so confirm the latest on the official portal close to your travel date; your agent can also arrange it as part of the booking.

Full step-by-step detail is in our Sri Lanka visa guide for Indians.

Best time to visit and how many days you need

From Delhi, December to March is the sweet spot: dry, sunny days on the south and west coasts and cool evenings in the tea hills, which also lines up with the winter break back home. April is hot, and the southwest coast gets heavier monsoon rain from May to September, while the north and east stay drier then. Whale season off Mirissa and Kalpitiya runs roughly November to April. Four to five nights is enough for beaches plus Kandy; six to eight nights lets you add the hill country, a wildlife safari and more coast.

Top experiences to build into your trip

These are the sights most Delhi travellers ask us to combine. Tell your agent which two or three matter most and they will route the itinerary around them.

• Leopard safari in Yala National Park: an early-morning jeep safari for leopards, elephants and sloth bears, best December to July.

• Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic in Kandy, the island's most important Buddhist site, paired with a lake walk and a cultural show.

• Galle Fort: a walkable Dutch-era rampart town of cafes and boutiques on the south coast, easy to pair with Mirissa beach.

• Sigiriya Rock Fortress: the climb to the fifth-century palace and frescoes in the cultural triangle near Dambulla.

• The tea-country hill train to Ella and the Nine Arch Bridge, one of the most scenic rail journeys in Asia.

• Mirissa whale watching off the south coast, plus calm swimming beaches for families.

•Dress modestly at temples, cover shoulders and knees, and do not pose with your back to a Buddha statue. Hide any Buddha tattoo.

•Drink bottled or filtered water, not tap water.

•English is widely spoken, so getting around from Delhi is easy for a first international trip.
