We're passionate locals who believe Sri Lanka is one of the world's most incredible destinations. Let us share our island paradise with you through authentic, memorable experiences.

Jolly Lanka was born from a simple yet powerful dream — to share the breathtaking beauty and vibrant culture of Sri Lanka with the world. Founded in 2015 by a group of passionate locals, we began our journey with just one tour guide and an unwavering love for our island home.

Like many in the travel industry, we faced immense challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. But through resilience, hope, and the support of our community and travelers, we’ve made it through — and we’re back, stronger and more inspired than ever.

Today, we are proud to be one of Sri Lanka’s most trusted and respected tour operators. Over the years, we’ve welcomed thousands of travelers, guiding them through unforgettable experiences — from the sacred temples of Anuradhapura to the sun-kissed beaches of the southern coast.

Of course, anyone can travel alone in Sri Lanka — it's a welcoming, vibrant country. But what makes us special is the access we provide to the hidden gems that don’t appear in the travel guidebooks. We don’t just show you the sights; we introduce you to the soul of Sri Lanka — through its people, traditions, stories, and secret places that only locals know.

At Jolly Lanka, we believe the most memorable journeys are those filled with genuine connection and discovery. Come explore Sri Lanka not just as a tourist, but as a welcomed guest. Let us show you the magic that makes this island feel like home.

These core values guide everything we do and ensure every traveler has an exceptional experience.

The passionate people behind Jolly Lanka who make every tour an unforgettable experience.
