What’s New and Upcoming in Sri Lanka Tourism for 2020

As 2020 continues to roll on, there is a growing sentiment among Sri Lankan tour operators that Sri Lanka will once again become a popular travel destination in Asia. By the latter half of 2019, there had been a surge of positive reviews from travellers who had visited the island and seen its attractions. Regarding this, a tour operator from Steppes Travel elaborated that travel bookings are showing a steady increase and are expected to rise above pre-April 2019 levels once again.

Ecotourism has become one of the biggest reasons for Sri Lanka’s tourism resurgence, with Forbes magazine highlighting Sri Lanka as the best safari destination outside of Africa. Aside from safaris, cultural sites that are entwined with nature – such as Ritigala – along with opportunities to get close to the local populace are proving to be popular with tourists. Tourists also have an array of accommodation options now at all major tourist destinations on the island – say you’re looking for a luxury resort in Kandy, you can check into the Hunas Falls Hotel Kandy
