Maldives
What better incentive is there to go away together on a cricket tour than an extension to the Maldives?
The Maldives are just 90 minutes away by air from Colombo. A miracle of geography and nature, the Maldives comprise a collection of exquisite coral islands so tiny that their total land mass is somewhat less than the Isle of Wight, scattered across an area of velvety, deep blue sea the size of Portugal.
As part of the Maldives' unique 'one island one resort' philosophy, around 80 of these islands have been transformed into idyllic holiday retreats, skilfully designed and constructed to complement the natural beauty of their surroundings. Wherever you stay, expect immaculate powder-soft white sand beaches, shallow lagoons perfect for swimming and reef snorkelling, a range of room types to suit all budgets (from comfortable beach bungalows to luxurious water villas), indulgent spa centres, thrilling watersports and a selection of international restaurants. Island resorts range from medium class 3* to deluxe 5* and each has a style and personality of its own.
Kuoni are holding a full allocation of rooms especially in support of the Tour at Kurumba (deluxe), Laguna (1st class) and Kuramathi Village (medium class). You can find out more about these and other Maldives resorts bookable as part of your cricket tour on the Kuoni Maldives webpages.

Sri Lanka
It need hardly be said that there's more to Sri Lanka than just cricket.
The heroes of Horace Walpole's fairy tale Three Princes of Serendib had the happy knack of stumbling across marvellous situations entirely by chance, gifting the English language the term 'serendipity'. Their country is now known as Sri Lanka, and never was a word more appropriately coined. Marvellous situations - breathtaking views, magical experiences and friendly encounters - abound in this Indian Ocean paradise.
Let that fiction become fact by exploring the treasures of Sri Lanka, from the endlessly photogenic and uniquely dramatic 5th Century rock fortress at Sigiriya, to the ancient capitals of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa, the enchanting cultural and religious centre of Kandy to the charming elephant orphanage at Pinnawela, on your choice of escorted tours.
Alternatively relax at one of the luxurious resorts that fringe the coast, or head up country on an escorted tour to discover the colour and culture of this enchanting island, where highlights include the monumental 5th Century rock fortress at Sigiriya, rising sheer out of the jungle plains, the vast, sprawling ancient capitals of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa, the vibrant cultural and religious centre of Kandy, and the charming elephant orphanage at Pinnawela. And, while you are there, try the consistently outstanding food and the world-famous tea!

Dubai Stopovers
While Sri Lankan Airlines provide the opportunity of non-stop flights to Sri Lanka from London, or via the Maldives, their business partners Emirates Airlines provide the opportuinity to fly from London, Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle or Glasgow via Dubai. This provides both the opportunity for Heathrow, Gatwick, regional and Glasgow departures and also the ideal opportunity for stopovers in Dubai.
There is nowhere in the world quite like the glittering city-state of Dubai in 2007. From the new, insanely innovative building projects to the super-deluxe hotels that grace the beaches, city and desert, the thrilling sports and activities to the massive malls of duty-free boutiques, this city of gold constantly buzzes with new ideas.
Something amazing is happening in Dubai where the world's most spectacular city is being built. Just 15 years ago, this was a small port surrounded by rolling sand dunes inhabited by nomadic Bedouin. But, in the early 1990s, a remarkable metamorphosis began.
Iconic, beautiful, super-deluxe hotels such as the seven-star Burj Al Arab created an instantly recognisable skyline against which outstanding new tourist attractions (the Wild Wadi Water Park, for example) and vast malls of duty-free boutiques have taken their place. Entire holiday villages have sprung up along the Emirate's golden coastline, alongside racing clubs and championship golf courses. And even the parched desert has been tamed, with oasis-like resorts offering complete tranquility beneath a canopy of a million stars, but with every conceivable luxury and convenience at your fingertips, and a range of thrilling activities to enjoy.
You can select from any Dubai resort on the Kuoni Dubai webpages.
