Your dollar stretches farther here
To think you could be sipping fresh coconut water on beautiful beaches for less than a dollar. Or imagine eating a delicious rice and curry feast at about the same price as a coffee back home! You could easily budget your day, and you'd be doing great - accommodation in guesthouses from $10-15 a night and a really nice meal at a mid-range restaurant that won't break the bank.
Adventure on a Budget!
Want to see some elephants? The entrance to national parks costs a tiny fraction of an African safari. How about a train ride through rolling emerald tea plantations? The scenic ride from Kandy to Ella costs less than the price of a movie ticket.
