About us

A new company, run by people who aren't new to this.

Green Isle Travels is a young Sri Lankan tour operator. That means fewer clients, more attention, and a team that still remembers every trip it has planned.

What we do

Inbound now. The rest of the world soon.

We are an inbound tour operator, which means we plan and run trips for people coming to Sri Lanka.

Mountains, beaches, heritage sites and the quieter places in between — we put the days together and take care of everything on the ground. Transport, hotels, guides, entry tickets, the airport at both ends.

Every trip is built for the people taking it. Nothing on this site is a package you have to fit yourself into. You tell us your dates, your budget and what kind of days you want, and we draft a route around that, then keep changing it until it reads like your trip rather than ours.

Your trip gets planned by someone who will still remember it next year.

Outbound packages are coming. Before long we'll also be arranging trips out of Sri Lanka to destinations abroad, for clients who would rather travel with a team they already know than start again with a stranger.

We are a young company, and we treat that as an advantage rather than something to hide. Fewer clients means more attention on each one. If you write to us, you are writing to the person who will actually build your itinerary.

What we handle

Everything between the two airport runs.

You arrive, and the rest is arranged. Here’s what’s normally covered in a trip we plan.

Customised itineraries

Drafted around your dates and budget, then redrafted as many times as it takes before anything is booked.

Private transport

An air-conditioned vehicle sized to your group, with the same driver from arrival to departure.

Hotels to suit

From boutique villas above Galle Fort to clean family guesthouses in Ella. We book what your budget actually allows, and say so plainly.

Guides and entry

Licensed guides for the sites that need one, and entrance fees and permits arranged before you get there.

Airport transfers

Met at Bandaranaike on arrival, whatever hour your flight lands, and dropped back with time to spare.

Someone on call

A number that answers while you're travelling. Not a call centre — the person who planned your trip.

Tell us roughly what you have in mind, and we'll draft something.
