Bucketlist Roadtrip in Sri Lanka: Coast to Hills

Fifteen of you. Strangers on Day 1 in Colombo, a tribe by the farewell in the hills. This is the Sri Lanka your friends keep meaning to do, and the control stays yours the whole way. Three slow days on the south coast to catch your first wave at Weligama, hunt down Galle Fort by WhatsApp, and watch for blue whales off Mirissa. Then you climb into tea country, ride the train everyone films through the clouds to Ella, and end at a rustic hideaway above Kandy where the only plan is a spa, a river, and one last party. Cars and drivers throughout. Every night, every permit, every meal that matters, handled. You just show up.
