I have have traveled extensively in Sri Lanka and posses a good knowledge on authentic local experiences which would only come from a well experienced local travel specialist. I believe in experiential journeys, rather than just going from one big hotel to another or visiting one monument to another. I can tailor make a holiday to remember with many authentic experiences hosted by locals and with stays in small authentic hotels. Take a look at this Sri Lanka itinerary proposed by me and write to me to customise this trip. I am available on Whatsapp almost all the time to chat on +94 773 476288.
