Mathaka Travel was founded on a simple but powerful belief — that the best way to experience Sri Lanka is through the eyes and heart of someone who truly lives and breathes it. I'm Malinda, a Sri Lankan travel specialist who has spent years exploring every province of this extraordinary island, discovering its hidden corners, building relationships with local communities, and crafting journeys that go far beyond the tourist trail.
After years of watching travellers miss the soul of Sri Lanka while rushing through overcrowded itineraries, I knew something had to change. Mathaka Travel was born to offer a different kind of experience — deeply personal, locally rooted, and thoughtfully designed to reveal what makes this island truly extraordinary.
Whether it's a sunrise at Sigiriya with no crowds, a home-cooked meal in a village in the hills, or a private whale watching sunrise off Mirissa — every moment we plan carries the intention of creating something you'll carry with you long after you return home.
"I didn't build a business. I built a way to share the Sri Lanka I fell in love with — one traveller, one journey, one unforgettable memory at a time."
— Malinda Nishantha, Founder
