With over 5 years of experience as a tour guide, I offer a unique opportunity to explore Jaffna. My passion lies in the way travel connects people, and having been a lifelong resident of Jaffna, I bring a perspective on its traditions that few others can. Exploring Jaffna with me ensures a deep dive into its culture, history, and lifestyle. Travelers can join me on my motorcycle, or if they hold a license, I can provide them with a motorcycle while accompanying them on another. This flexibility allows for a personalized experience where they can stop and immerse themselves in locations that interest them, enjoying a 360-degree view of the surroundings. Our motorcycles are in excellent condition and are ideal for exploring Jaffna. There are no additional charges for fuel, and I ensure a safe journey, guiding and supporting travellers throughout the tour.

"This is Sri Lanka’s only hands-on sea cucumber farming experience, set in the natural beauty of Ariyalai's coastal waters. Unlike other tours, we take you directly into the middle of the sea to visit a real working aquaculture farm — not a museum or demonstration tank. Guests will hold live sea cucumbers, learn directly from experienced farmers, relax in a wooden hut floating above the ocean, and enjoy local Ceylon tea with breathtaking sea views.
