About Travel Buddies

Your trusted partner for unforgettable adventures across Sri Lanka

Our Story

Travel Buddies was born from a shared passion for exploring the hidden beauty and vibrant culture of Sri Lanka. What began as a small group of friends traveling across the island soon grew into a community dedicated to helping others experience the same wonder we found on our journeys.

Founded by three Sri Lankan adventurers, Travel Buddies started with a simple idea to connect travelers with authentic local experiences and showcase the heart and soul of Sri Lanka beyond the usual tourist paths.

Our mission is to make travel more personal, more meaningful, and more connected. We believe that the best adventures come from real stories, local friendships, and unforgettable moments that bring people together.
