What is this journey for?

Choose everything that appeals. There are no wrong answers — this simply tells us where to start.

When would you like to travel?

Approximate is fine. Sri Lanka has two monsoons, so we will match the destination to your dates rather than the other way around.

How long, and who is coming?

Our partner physicians recommend at least seven nights for a genuine Ayurvedic programme. Shorter stays work beautifully for yoga and rest.

Your budget, and where to send the itinerary.

A budget range lets us propose something realistic rather than something aspirational. Excluding international flights, per person.

How it works

Four steps, and very little effort from you.

No forms to chase, no call centre. One advisor, two working days, and an itinerary you can change as often as you like.

  1. 01

    Tell us what you need

    Share your dates, how long you have and what you are hoping to change. Five minutes on our enquiry form, or a WhatsApp message if that is easier.

  2. 02

    We design your journey

    Within two working days you receive a proposed itinerary: which centre, which programme, why we chose it for you, and what it costs — with no obligation.

  3. 03

    Refine your experience

    We adjust as often as you like. Different centre, longer treatment course, more or less travelling — until the journey reads like yours.

  4. 04

    Travel & reconnect

    We handle transfers, confirmations and the details. You are met at the airport, and your advisor stays reachable for the whole trip.

While you decide

Things worth knowing before you send this.

None of it changes what you should write. It may change what you expect back.

There is no deposit at this stage

You will see a full itinerary and a price before anything is held or paid. Most journeys go through two or three drafts first.

Seven nights is the honest minimum

For a genuine Ayurvedic programme, our partner physicians ask for at least seven nights. Shorter stays work beautifully for yoga, rest and food.

Tell us about your health

Medication, existing conditions and pregnancy all change what a physician will recommend. Put it in the message field — it is read by a person.

We will tell you if we are the wrong fit

If your budget and your dates do not work together, we would rather say so than sell you a compromise.

A reply from a named advisor

Not an autoresponder and not a call centre. The same person stays with you through the trip.

Prefer to talk?

WhatsApp is the fastest way to reach us, and there is a Sri Lankan phone number that a person answers during office hours.

Traveller stories

Wellness journeys that stay with you.

Reviews from travellers who let us design their time in Sri Lanka. We have not edited them for enthusiasm.

I arrived sceptical about Ayurveda and left with a routine I still keep two years later. The doctor spent forty minutes with me on the first day — nobody has ever asked me that many questions about how I actually live.

What I appreciated most was the honesty. I asked for a fourteen-day detox and was told plainly that ten days of treatment plus four in the hills would suit me better. They were right.

Three weeks of Panchakarma is not a holiday and they never pretended otherwise. The preparation notes they sent beforehand meant I knew exactly what I was walking into. I slept better in week three than I had in years.
