Our Story
Sesatha Travel Pty Ltd was established in Brisbane in 2021 with a clear vision: to promote the enchanting beauty of Sri Lanka to Australian travellers through bespoke travel experiences. Fuelled by a deep passion for travel and a profound appreciation for Sri Lanka’s rich culture and stunning landscapes, we set out to create personalised journeys that resonate with our clients' unique interests and desires.
After working for one of Australia’s largest travel companies, the founder and managing director of Sesatha Travel recognised that many Australians haven’t discovered the wonders Sri Lanka offers as a holiday destination. Sri Lanka, an enchanting island nation in the Indian Ocean, is renowned for its rich cultural heritage, breathtaking natural beauty, and genuine hospitality. Unlike many tropical island destinations, Sri Lanka boasts both warm tropical beaches and a lush, cooler hill country. In just a few hours by car, travellers can experience the best of both climates.
At Sesatha Travel, we are dedicated to providing friendly and personalised customer service. We strive to deliver unforgettable experiences and lasting memories. Our services include free travel consultation, tailored itineraries, and round-the-clock care during trips, ensuring our clients’ safety and satisfaction. Our guiding principle is to uphold honest and ethical business practices, even in today’s highly competitive travel industry. This way, our clients always feel secure and valued when journeying with us.
