My name is Lakmal, and before I became a tour operator, I was simply a young Sri Lankan with big dreams and a determination to build a better future.
I didn't come from wealth or privilege. Like many people in Sri Lanka, my journey started with humble beginnings. I worked in many different jobs, often earning less than the average salary, doing whatever I could to support myself and my family. Every opportunity, no matter how small, became a lesson. Every challenge made me stronger. Every person I met taught me something valuable.
Over the years, I realized that my greatest passion was sharing my beautiful country with people from around the world.
Sri Lanka isn't just where I live.

Today, I am proud to welcome visitors from every corner of the globe through LOVE YOU SRI LANKA, a company built on honesty, kindness, trust, and genuine Sri Lankan hospitality.
When you book with me, you're not hiring a driver.
You're gaining a local friend.
From the moment your flight lands at Bandaranaike International Airport in Colombo, I personally welcome you with a smile.
From there, I stay with you throughout your entire journey—driving you safely across our beautiful island, helping you discover hidden gems, introducing you to local culture, recommending authentic restaurants, and making sure every day is unforgettable.
When your holiday comes to an end, I don't simply drop you outside the airport.
I personally take you all the way to the departure terminal, making sure your journey home begins as smoothly as your adventure started.
Your comfort, safety, and happiness are always my highest priorities.
I believe the best holidays aren't measured by how many places you visit.
They're measured by how you feel.
I want every guest to feel relaxed, safe, cared for, and completely at home.
I take pride in creating experiences that cannot be found in a travel brochure—sharing local stories, introducing village life, finding breathtaking viewpoints, discovering quiet beaches, enjoying authentic Sri Lankan food, watching wildlife in its natural habitat, and experiencing the true spirit of our island.
When you travel with LOVE YOU SRI LANKA, you can expect:
Because this isn't just a business.
It's my way of sharing the country I love.
Sri Lanka is known as the Pearl of the Indian Ocean, a land filled with ancient kingdoms, sacred temples, misty mountains, golden beaches, incredible wildlife, tea plantations, waterfalls, and some of the warmest, most welcoming people you'll ever meet.
I want every visitor to experience the real Sri Lanka—not just the famous attractions, but the hidden places that locals cherish.
Just your own private journey through paradise.
Every guest who chooses LOVE YOU SRI LANKA becomes part of my story.
Your visit helps support not only my family, but also local hotels, restaurants, guides, artisans, drivers, farmers, and small businesses throughout Sri Lanka.
Thank you for considering me to be part of your journey.
I look forward to welcoming you personally at Colombo Airport, showing you the beauty of my homeland, and saying goodbye at the departure gate with memories you'll treasure for a lifetime.
Until then...
Ayubowan! (May you live a long and happy life.)
I can't wait to show you why we proudly say...
"Come as a visitor... Leave as family."
