Golf in Sri Lanka is unlike anywhere else in Asia.
Colonial-era golf clubs hidden among mist-covered mountains. Oceanfront fairways shaped by sea winds. Championship courses surrounded by tropical forests, tea estates, and ancient reservoirs.
Here, golf becomes more than a game.
It becomes part of a slower and more refined journey through the island’s landscapes, heritage, and luxury hospitality.
At Longview Tours, we create tailor-made luxury golf holidays in Sri Lanka featuring private transport, championship golf experiences, luxury resorts, wellness retreats, tea country escapes, and bespoke itineraries designed entirely around your pace and interests.
Whether you seek a relaxed golf retreat in the hills of Nuwara Eliya or a multi-course luxury golf journey across Sri Lanka, every experience is carefully curated with elegance and authenticity.
Sri Lanka offers one of the most unique golf experiences in Asia.
Within a relatively compact island, travellers can play across dramatically different landscapes from cool highland courses to tropical coastal fairways and championship resort greens.
Unlike crowded golf destinations, Sri Lanka combines world-class hospitality with a more intimate and immersive style of luxury travel.
