About us

Your journey, your way. About JEMS Travels & Tours

Who we are

We're passionate about helping travellers discover the beauty of Sri Lanka.

JEMS Travels & Tours offers personalised tours, reliable transport and travel experiences tailored to your interests and budget. From golden beaches and misty mountains to wildlife safaris and the island's ancient cultural heritage, we help you explore Sri Lanka in comfort, safety and style.

We're a small, independent company based in Homagama, just outside Colombo. That means you deal with us directly: we plan each trip from scratch, answer your messages ourselves and look after the details. Tell us what you'd like to see and how fast you like to travel, and we'll shape the route around you.

Your journey, your way, with memories that last a lifetime.

Your driver

The people behind the wheel

  • Experienced

    Years on Sri Lanka's tourist routes, in every season, including the winding hill-country roads.

  • English-speaking

    Easy to talk to, and happy to explain what you're passing along the way.

  • Licensed and insured

    Fully licensed drivers in insured vehicles, so you are covered for the whole trip.

  • Know the island

    Where to stop for lunch, which sites are best early in the day, and the quieter way round when the main road is busy.

  • Patient and flexible

    Your pace and your stops. Pull over for a photo or a king coconut, or change the plan for the afternoon.

  • Careful on the road

    Steady driving and sensible daily distances, so you arrive rested rather than rattled.

What we stand for

01

Honesty

One clear price agreed before you arrive. If something costs extra, we tell you first.

02

Your stops, your choice

We plan the stops around what you want to see, and you can change them along the way.

03

Safety

Licensed, experienced drivers, insured vehicles, sensible daily distances and no night driving on mountain roads.
