Sri Lanka
Amidst the competitive fixtures and the breath-taking sights, perhaps the most treasured memories will stem from the interactions with your Sri Lankan hosts themselves. After all, anywhere afforded the nickname "land of the smiling people" can't be too bad! A tour with Smile Group Travel balances playing high standard fixtures with the opportunity to experience Sri Lanka with tours and excursions. There are opportunities to whale watch, learn about the culture on a tour of the Galle Fort and also experience the amazing elephant orphanage.
