As with everything in life though it pays to be organised. So if you plan on seeing Sri Lanka on one of our amazing weekend trips and would like to be guaranteed a place please book well in advance of travel.

You can simply add this weekend trip when applying for any programme in Sri Lanka under ‘Optional Extras’. If you’ve already signed up for one of our volunteer programmes in Sri Lanka and would like to add this weekend trip, then you can simply request this within your My Trip account. Please note that places on our weekend trips are non-refundable and non-transferable.

We operate a number of amazing weekend trips every month that allow you to explore the country as a group with your new-found friends. The structured itinerary will allow you to make the most of your free time and we have maximised time to provide you with something different and exciting every day.

A member of our local team who knows the country inside out, will accompany you throughout the trip. Not only will you get to share all of their knowledge, but the trip will be even more enjoyable and safe.

Maldives paradise islands long weekend trip

Only £499pp — Includes return flights, airport transfers, speedboat transfers, accommodation and breakfast

Everyone dreams of visiting the Maldives, but for most it is generally too expensive! Well, here is your chance to live the dream and to explore the beautiful Maldives for a long weekend! There is nowhere else in the world quite like it, with pristine white beaches, tranquil azure seas and amazing tropical coral reefs.

Based on the island of Maafushi, you will spend 4 days and 3 nights where you can truly experience the best islands in the world! There is no planned itinerary for the trip, just time to enjoy yourself in the sun in the Maldives! 

The Maldives are the perfect place to come and chill out and relax. Spend your days soaking up the sun on the pristine white beaches and having long dinners as the sunsets and time slowly goes by without a worry in the world! 

If relaxing is not your thing then there are plenty of activities our local co-ordinator can organise nearby! Some of the things you could get up to include:

  • A half day snorkelling trip where you can snorkel with sea turtles, swim with dolphins and have lunch on an uninhabited island
  • Full day on a luxury resort island where you can relax in style at one of the many 5* resorts!
  • An island hopping tour with Nemo point snorkelling
  • Watching the giant whale sharks gently swim past
  • Sunset night fishing with BBQ dinner

The Maldives are just an hour’s flight from Sri Lanka and you would be crazy to give up visiting these beautiful islands for a once in a lifetime experience.

The TMR team will arrange your transfers, flights and accommodation, but please note that no team member will accompany you. This is an opportunity for some independent travel.
