Ovi Travel Guides

Your local connection

Travel with someone who knows the island.

Waruna Chamara, founder of Ovi Travel Guides, at the Temple of the Tooth in Kandy

Ovi was created by Waruna Chamara after more than a decade in hospitality and travel. The idea is simple: show visitors the Sri Lanka locals love, while making every part of the journey feel easy, safe and personal.

Ovi is small on purpose. Waruna answers the messages, plans the routes and knows the drivers personally. That’s why plans can change mid-trip — a longer morning in Ella, an extra night on the coast — without anything falling apart.

We’d rather plan fewer trips, properly.

No call centres, no fixed departures, no group buses. One conversation, one plan, one person responsible for it from arrival to departure.
