Island Adventures

"I highly recommend speaking with Suren from Island Adventures if you are looking for authentic local experiences, creativity, quality and attention to detail. This company has really impressed me; they are genuinely committed to sustainability and community involvement (just ask - they have many tangible examples)."

They have a strong team and demonstrate care for the environment and passion for their beautiful country."

Sri Lanka

Island Adventures is based in Colombo and operates all over this diverse country.

Unique experiences

A great deal of resources is invested at Island Adventures to research and develop unique cultural and special interest tours for groups and FITs. From trekking, cycling, wildlife safaris, luxury experiences and family adventures, challenge them to devise something to inspire and excite your customers!

Commited to sustainability

Sustainable travel is at the core of each experience Island Adventures designs, ensuring that the trip is equally enriching to travelers and the environment and communities they explore. This results in some truly special encounters with local people and a ‘feel good’ factor of supporting worthwhile affiliated projects.

Since 2015

Island Adventures was founded in 2015 when two friends (with extensive experience in the travel industry in Sri Lanka) decided to build a business around their passion for showcasing their country at its best. The company is staffed by an expert team and professional guides who consistently deliver to the highest level of service.

Suren Basnayake

Suren spent ten years designing and operating adventure travel for one of Sri Lanka’s leading DMC’s before founding Island Adventures with his friend Nalaka, an award winning special interest, nature and trekking guide, with over 30 years’ experience. They love creating their authentic tours so much, they claim to have never ‘worked’ a day since!
