SriLankan Airlines unwraps Ramayana Trail for Indian Travellers

SriLankan Airlines is inviting Indian travelers to embark on a spiritual journey through the epic Ramayana with its exclusive Ramayana Trail package. This carefully designed tour brings to life the legendary tale of Lord Rama, Sita, and Hanuman, taking travelers to 20 sacred sites across Sri Lanka, each steeped in mythology and history.

Highlights include visits to the Seetha Amman Temple, believed to be where Sita prayed during her captivity, and Rumassala Hill, said to be a fragment of the Himalayas brought by Hanuman. Travelers will also explore Ravana’s cave, the lake where Lord Rama defeated Ravana, and the legendary bridge built by Lord Rama's Vanara army.

Sri Lanka Tourism Promotions Bureau, Chairman, Buddhika Hewawasam said, “India has been the prime source market for Sri Lanka’s inbound tourism.  Travellers from India hold a very special place in our hearts, as they have always been the first to arrive in our shores signalling the end of difficult times. This trend has been visible in the context of all unprecedented challenges that we faced recently as a country. We are proud to collaborate with the National Carrier, SriLankan Airlines in its latest strategic marketing drive, ‘Ramayana by SriLankan,’ which will continue to inspire discerning travellers from India to explore the charms of old ages blending seamlessly with modern day travel.”

SriLankan Airlines, Chief Executive Officer, Richard Nuttall said, “We are pleased to make a grand comeback in the India market with this exclusive range of Ramayana Trail excursions which is guaranteed to inspire travellers to explore destinations like Sri Lanka like never before. India is our single largest market in terms of number of cities connected and flight frequencies. We are certain that this endeavour will further strengthen our future expansion strategies whilst portraying Sri Lanka as a destination that is closely connected to their devotion and culture.

The package includes stays at premium 4- and 5-star hotels, guided tours of Ramayana landmarks, and convenient direct flights from major Indian cities. Along with exploring Sri Lanka’s spiritual sites, travelers can indulge in its vibrant culture, festivals, and cuisine, making the journey both fulfilling and memorable.
