Premil Shasendra
Founder, Travel Agent
Tourism has always been my passion. I have had the privilege of serving clients from across the world. It brings me immense joy when clients arrive at the airport, marking the beginning of our journey to explore Sri Lanka. Each experience is unique, and it is truly gratifying to know that I have touched someone’s life during their happiest moments.
I embarked on my career in tourism in 2016 and subsequently established Real Lanka Holidays travel agency in 2018. My goal was to seamlessly merge my Sinhalese culture, personal experiences, and extensive knowledge with my clients’ ideas and desires, thereby assisting them in crafting their perfect holidays. Operating within the LGBT, bird watching, and wildlife categories, I strive to offer specialized experiences tailored to these specific interests.

After 12 years in the fast-paced world of logistics, I felt it was time for a more meaningful journey. My love for meeting people from all corners of the globe and sharing the rich culture of Sri Lanka led me to the travel industry — and I haven’t looked back since. For the past 3+ years, I’ve been crafting unforgettable travel experiences, turning every trip into a story worth telling. This isn’t just a job — it’s my passion, and I’m here to help you discover the heart and soul of Sri Lanka, one journey at a time.

After over a decade in the logistics industry, I felt a deep desire for change—something more human, more connected. My passion for meeting people from around the world and sharing the beauty, stories, and culture of Sri Lanka led me into tourism. It’s not just a job; it’s a joy. Every journey I guide is a chance to create memories, build friendships, and grow our company—without the stress, but with all the heart.
