About the Author

Husband and wife duo, Kannan (Prakash) and Niranjala, were both born and raised in Sri Lanka. Niranjala, a Sinhalese from the island's south, and Kannan, a Thamil from the north, together bring a rich blend of cultural perspectives.

They previously ran the award-winning Sri Lankan restaurant Elephant Walk in Hampstead, London, for eight successful years.

Driven by a shared passion for travel and an intimate knowledge of Sri Lanka's history, heritage, and landscapes, they began curating bespoke luxury holidays - first to Sri Lanka and the nearby Maldives. Today, their offerings have expanded to include the stunning islands of Mauritius and the Seychelles in the Indian Ocean.
