Frequently asked questions

How much does a Colombo holiday package cost?
You'll find cheap prices on Expedia for your Colombo escape. However, a range of factors like the season, length of stay and your choice of hotel will determine how much your holiday to Colombo costs.
What are the cheapest months to go to Colombo?
You're likely to find lower rates and greater availability in April, May and October. Explore our cheap Colombo holiday packages and you could get some great off-season deals.
How many days is enough for Colombo?
With around 3 days, you'll have enough time to experience popular neighbourhoods like Colombo 03 and Thimbirigasyaya during your Colombo holiday. Make sure to also add Elphinstone Theatre and St Lucia's Cathedral to your sightseeing itinerary. Searching for more adventures? Consider venturing outside of Colombo on day trips and tours.
Is it worth booking a holiday package to Colombo?
Colombo has all the ingredients you need for a memorable break --- walking trails, coastal beaches and culture are just the start. Whether you want to visit attractions such as Colombo City Centre and Galle Face Beach, or take the path less traveled, you'll find plenty to see and do on your Colombo holiday.
How to find the best Colombo package deals?
Use Expedia's handy filters to find some terrific Colombo package deals. When you start your search, simply set your maximum budget and then order the results by "Price: low to high." If you want to save, plan your escape for midweek, or browse for Colombo package deals in the off-peak season. Play around with your travel dates and you may score even bigger discounts. As a rule of thumb, it's usually best to lock in your holiday package as early as possible.
Is it cheaper to book a Colombo holiday as a package?
Expedia holiday packages are designed to make your money go further. Bundle your hotel, car rental and flight into one great-value price and enjoy significant savings. You'll generally get a better deal than booking each component separately. And you'll still get the flexibility to create a customised Colombo holiday by choosing your favourite type of stay, airline and car class.
When to book a holiday package to Colombo?
If you've got your Colombo holiday dates confirmed, book early to grab some fantastic deals. With Expedia, you can generally reserve some flights up to one year ahead of time. Prefer spontaneous getaways? Our last-minute deals are perfect for setting off on a whim.
