Sri Lanka —
the whole island,
properly.

I live here. On a private lake estate in the Western Province, in a house surrounded by cinnamon and coconut, on an island I have spent years learning properly.

Not as a visitor. As a neighbour.

I know which market is worth the detour on a Tuesday morning. I know the stretch of coast that isn't in the guidebooks and the road out of Colombo that saves two hours. I know Jaffna in a way that most Sri Lanka accounts don't — because I've been there, slowly, more than once.

This is what I offer: my knowledge, in exchange for yours about what kind of trip you actually want.

What I offer
I
Digital Travel Counsel
A written advisory brief or a direct conversation — your itinerary questions answered by someone who has actually been there, recently, and paid attention. No generic recommendations. No commission on what I suggest.
From $300
II
Bespoke Itinerary Design
A full journey, designed for you. Destination by destination, property by property, day by day. Built around what you're running toward — and what you're running from. One revision included. WhatsApp support throughout.
From $2,000
III
Concierge Partnership
The complete service. I design the trip, make every booking, arrange ground logistics, and remain available throughout. For those who want Sri Lanka done entirely — and done right. Includes the option of a day with me on the island.
From $5,000

I do not sell itineraries. I give counsel. The difference is a relationship — and the difference between a good trip and the right one.

The south coast is not Sri Lanka. Ella is not Sri Lanka. The cultural triangle is not Sri Lanka. They are three chapters of a much longer book.

The right place
to start is
a conversation.
I take a small number of counsel clients each season. If you are planning a trip to Sri Lanka and want it done properly, get in touch. There is no obligation and no pitch — just an honest conversation about what you are looking for and whether I can help.
