Sri Lanka Tourism in collaboration with tourism industry stakeholders, SriLankan Airlines and the Sri Lankan Embassy in Thailand arranged a familiarisation tour of Sri Lanka for 10 key travel agents from Thailand.
The tour was arranged to coincide with the Kandy Esala Perehara, in line with SLTPB’s strategy of promoting local events globally. The group was in Sri Lanka from 10 to 17 August and covered key tourist attractions including the Cultural Triangle.

Thailand is considered as a potential market for Sri Lanka not only for Buddhism-related activities but also for ild life, heritage and exploring of other scenic beauty of the country,” said Chami Lanka Gasnawage, Assistant Director of SLTPB.
The event was a great collaborative effort as the airline tickets for the group was provided by SriLankan Airlines and transport was provided by Jetwing, both on FOC basis.
