The Heritage

The Story Behind Wildscape

Wildscape Sri Lanka was founded by Shehan Janith Hettiarachchi, with the guidance of his father, Supurna Hettiarachchi — a veteran of Sri Lanka's tourism industry — and stems from a shared, long-standing interest in wildlife.

The company combines that field experience with structured travel planning to offer tours that showcase Sri Lanka's biodiversity, with an emphasis on hospitality throughout.

Beyond Wildlife

A Broader Sri Lanka Journey

Wildlife guiding is where Wildscape started, but a trip with us doesn't have to stop there. We also plan Cultural & Heritage tours through Sri Lanka's ancient cities and sacred sites, and Adventure tours covering trekking, rafting, and the coast. Every trip is tailor-made — built around your own interests, time, and pace, whether that's one of these themes or a combination. Get in touch to start planning.
