In 1997 I entered the tourism field as a management trainee at the Colombo Hilton. This was my Gap year and I never looked back as tourism and hospitality was a natural fit for my skill set. I was part of the team that launched 2 Hilton Projects in Sri Lanka (Deli Market & Hilton Residence) and these were invaluable formative years in my Journey. In 1999, United Holidays, which is now A&K Sri Lanka came calling. United Holidays was the GSA for United Airlines and Air Canada and was also a DMC that handled many accounts including Hayes & Jarvis and SAGA Holidays. Joining as an Assistant manager, I rose through the ranks to head the DMC as Executive Director within a few short years. I also headed Business development for the group and was part of the team that set up a new out bound travel company as well as other ventures such as the introduction of ISIC to Sri Lanka. During my tenure, we diversified the company and added many new markets and segments. In 2009 as the war came to an end, I had also reached the limit of my potential at United Holidays and made a move to start my own DMC in partnership with Expolanka. Luxe Asia was founded with a zero base and grew to a sizable operation and was eventually sold to Thomas Cook India. At which point I was appointed CEO of Thomas Cook Lanka in addition to being MD of Luxe Asia. I served in this capacity until 2020 before Joining Trip Fusion as the MD. Trip Fusion is a unique opportunity to build exactly the type of Inbound DMC without any encumbrances that comes with corporate ownership. To apply all the lessons learnt through the years and build a business that is lean and with a sense of civic conscience. Completely service-oriented catering to specific markets and segments that not only looks after the employees but all stakeholders that we work with, Trip Fusion can occupy a unique niche in the industry. The focus is on experiences for the guests and a sense of family and community for all those involved. The journey continues.

Ayubowan! My name is Randika. As a Luxury Travel Designer working at Trip Fusion, I love being able to curate journeys through this magical island I call home. I’ve been a part of the industry for 12 years – being a foodie and an ardent traveller myself, I find that they both compliment my work. Being able to show a glimpse of Sri Lanka to a traveller is something that I treat sacredly. Undoubtedly, Sri Lanka being an Island surrounded by the Indian Ocean, is a perfect getaway for tranquillity and soul-searching. Within the span of a few hours, one can experience a vivid mix of culture, thrilling wildlife, greenery, adventurous expeditions to a range of beautiful golden beaches across the island with a smiling sun all year around. I have been living in Sri Lanka my whole life but there is always something new to explore. I can assure that you will have an amazing experience during your stay in this resplendent island.
