"Travel is not just about the destination; it’s about the journey, the moments in between, and the connections we make along the way"

Message from AB

Dear Trade Colleague,

I’m excited to reconnect with you this September as we reflect on impactful milestones and look ahead to exciting new adventures. From the heartwarming success of Pedal Sri Lanka 2024 to the re-launch of Sri Lanka Day Tours, we’ve continued to make meaningful progress in connecting people with the beauty of our island.

I am especially thrilled to introduce Lolu Village Resort in Anuradhapura, an immersive retreat nestled in the heart of Sri Lanka’s cultural heritage. This new addition offers a perfect balance of tranquility, history, and modern comforts, providing guests with a serene escape in one of the country’s most significant regions.

Additionally, I’m proud to share the latest update on our Human-Elephant Conflict (HEC) mitigation project in Gonaganara Buttala. For the fourth consecutive season, no elephants have entered the village through the tank, allowing uninterrupted cultivation of paddy fields. This success underscores our commitment to fostering harmony between wildlife and local communities, ensuring both the safety of villagers and the preservation of their livelihoods.

As we continue on this journey, I’m grateful for your support and look forward to sharing more exciting updates with you in the months to come.

Warm regards,

Anuruddha Bandara (AB)
