The best travel company for Sri Lanka holidays
Red Dot was recognised as one of the best travel companies for holidays in Sri Lanka long before the island became one of the hottest holiday destinations in the world.
For 20 years, our dedicated and talented representatives in the UK and Sri Lanka have tailored memorable holidays to our clients' exact requirements.
Our own Colombo-based company, Red Dot Lanka, ensures we can provide an expert personal service and unbeatable value for money so there is no point struggling on alone.
As well as a constantly-assessed choice of accommodation to suit all budgets, we also offer a wide selection of specialist itineraries, a huge and enticing range of activities and we regard our pool of chauffeur-guides as the best in the country.
Our fair booking conditions and anti-fraud protection, and proven professionalism through good times and bad, make us a company you can trust.

The scenery and wildlife of Yala and Gal Oya national parks have always enchanted her, and she also holds a special place in her heart for Kandy, Sri Lanka’s last royal capital. In her spare time, Dulmini can be found swimming, trekking or curled up with a good book.
Andrea Goonesekera
Known as ‘Awesome Andy’ around the office due to her laidback, friendly nature, Andrea was born and raised in Colombo but spent a few years living in Canada. After a short-lived career in banking, Andy opted instead to pursue her passion for travel and now has several years of sales experience.
Mevantha de Silva
After a short teaching stint at his alma mater, Mevantha joined the travel industry in the hope of fulfilling a childhood dream of traveling around the world and getting into conservation. Currently on his seventh year in the travel trade, Mevantha is passionate about theatre and when he’s not experimenting with new food at the latest restaurant, he plays cricket and futsal.
Lahiru Kularatne
Lahiru made a case against her career as a lawyer, deciding it was not really her cup of tea. She now spends her days helping clients see the best of Sri Lanka, doting over her teenage son and running her own gorgeous homestay. She is proud to have been on the Mahaweli River Expedition and particularly loves the tea hills.
Mohamed Rikaz
Having entered the field of travel with a love for meeting people from different walks of life, Rikaz is now in his twelfth year in the trade. When not at his laptop, he’s most likely to be found with his eyes glued to a book instead or perhaps engrossed in a serious game of Scrabble. Apart from home, his favourite places so far are New Delhi, Dubai and the beautiful shores of Maldives.
Nazreen Nazar
Stumbling into the world of tourism quite by chance, Nazreen says her list of random decisions is topped by the best one yet – her move to the travel industry. Now she enjoys planning holidays to showcase the best of Sri Lanka to others and in her free time, she’s likely to be glued to a screen, watching Anime. Sigiriya Rock Fortress and the cooler climes of Ella are amongst her favourite places yet.
