Chennai sits closer to Sri Lanka than almost any other Indian metro, making the island a natural getaway. Direct flights from Chennai reach Colombo (CMB) in little over an hour, so you can be sipping Ceylon tea or watching leopards on the same day you leave home. Holiday Vibez, a South-India operator, is ideally placed to plan your Chennai-to-Sri-Lanka trip — route, hotels, private driver and all. Here's what to expect.

Sri Lanka on Chennai's doorstep

Being so close pays off. The flight is barely over an hour, the online ETA is simple and the value is excellent, so Chennai travellers can enjoy a genuine international break without a long journey. Beaches, safaris, temples and tea hills are all within easy reach.

Flights from Chennai

Direct flights link Chennai with Colombo (CMB) in a little over an hour — one of the shortest international routes from India. We help you choose convenient timings; airfare is quoted separately from the land package. Share your dates to begin.

What's included

Holiday Vibez Sri Lanka packages usually cover:

  • Hotels in your chosen tier with daily breakfast
  • A private car and English-speaking driver-guide throughout
  • Colombo airport transfers and a day-by-day itinerary
  • Assistance with your ETA e-visa

Best time to travel

For the west-and-south circuit through Colombo, Kandy, the hills and southern beaches, December to March brings the driest weather. If you'd prefer the east coast around Trincomalee, plan for May to September. We tailor your regions to the season for the best conditions.

ETA visa assistance

Indian passport holders need a Sri Lanka ETA (Electronic Travel Authorization), applied for online and quick to obtain. We help Chennai travellers complete the short application so it's sorted before departure — one less thing to think about.

Travelling with my parents and two kids, I was nervous. Holiday Vibez planned every single day perfectly, and the Alleppey houseboat was the highlight. We are already planning our next trip with them.

Best price I found anywhere, and the desert safari and Burj Khalifa tickets were all sorted before we even landed. The team was on WhatsApp whenever I had a question.

The Gulmarg gondola, the shikara ride on Dal Lake — exactly like the photos, no surprises at all. By the end of the trip our driver felt like family.
