Candid reviews of all the best places to eat and stay, from laid-back beachside guesthouses to tranquil ayurveda resorts and elegant colonial-era hotels, plus informed coverage of Sri Lanka’s history, culture and religions, plus the lowdown on all the island’s colourful festivals and maps for every region.

This review is from: The Rough Guide to Sri Lanka - 2nd Edition (Paperback)
We went to SL last year and used this guide extensively. It proved to be an invaluable travel companion. Highly recommended. I also bought the RG map that cross references the attractions and can recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars In depth Sri Lanka, 23 July 2009
By C. E. Sayer (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Rough Guide to Sri Lanka - 2nd Edition (Paperback)
This book has good detailed information on Sri Lanka with fact on many of the smaller towns as well as the larger tourist areas. We felt that the book could be made easier to navigate and include more pictures and maps, hence the 4 stars.
