OUR STORY

A Journey Built
on Trust

Ceylon Jay Travels is a registered Sri Lankan travel agent specializing in tours of Sri Lanka, proudly welcoming clients from every corner of the world. Founded on a deep love for this island nation and years of first-hand experience as a national tourist guide, we exist to share the very best of Sri Lanka with every traveler who walks through our doors.

We began with a simple idea: offer reasonably priced, flexible tour packages that could be tailored to each individual traveler — because no two journeys should ever be the same. From the misty highlands of Nuwara Eliya to the ancient stupas of Anuradhapura and the leopard trails of Yala, we craft every experience with intention and care.

Today, with over 2,000 satisfied clients and 400 completed tours, we are proud to maintain the best market rates without ever compromising on quality. Satisfaction is not just our goal — it is our guarantee. Many of our guests return again and again, and that loyalty is the greatest compliment we could ever receive.

At Ceylon Jay Travels, we encourage every client to slow down, breathe in the beauty of Sri Lanka, absorb its extraordinary history, and savour its delicious cuisine. This island has so much to give — and we are here to make sure you receive every bit of it.

We had a fantastic experience with our guide, Jayasuriya, during our trip to Sri Lanka. He was incredibly friendly and made the whole journey feel personal and relaxed. Jayasuriya shared so much knowledge about the country, from its history to local culture, and was always happy to answer our questions.

Gamini was an absolute pleasure to deal with in the lead up to and throughout our time in Sri Lanka. There was nothing he wasn't willing to do to make our trip feel fun, educational, safe and relaxing. We will be back in Sri Lanka in 2025 and will be engaging Gamini again.
