Arrival — Colombo & Negombo
Welcome to Sri Lanka
Met on arrival and transferred to a boutique property in Negombo to settle in.
RIZ-1010 Days / 9 NightsPrivate Journey
Romance & Honeymoon
Private moments, boutique hideaways and scenic coastlines designed for couples and honeymooners, balancing culture, hill country and coastal romance.
PRODUCT POSITIONING
Designed for Two.
Romance & Honeymoon moves at a slower rhythm than RIZ's other itineraries, with private experiences and boutique properties chosen specifically for couples — candlelit dinners, private pools, and time built in for spontaneity rather than a packed schedule.
The route pairs cultural heritage with the hill country's romantic mist and the south coast's beaches, closing with several unhurried days by the ocean.
