Heliyan Tours & Travels is inaugurated as a branch of Heliyan International (pvt) Ltd by two siblings who studied at Sorbonne University in Paris, France. The sister has completed a Law degree, then a Master’s I in Corporate Law and a Master’s II in International Business Law.  She is presently working as a Legal Officer for a French Asset Management Bank. Her younger brother has completed a Master’s in Management & Economics.

Born in France, off Sri Lankan parents, these two young adults had the rare opportunity to learn and experience Asian Cultures while growing up in Europe. They know well both occidental and oriental cultures. They have a vast knowledge about Sri Lanka its people and its traditions, as a result of ancestral heritage.

With their excellent educational background and the values adopted from two great cultures – namely French and Sinhalese –  they are in a position to bridge West and East in a lucrative manner. They do understand easily what people in both regions need when they travel back and forth, from West to East.

Tilini Clara and Taridu Sacha have gathered most relevant and essential but practical knowledge to become professionals in the field of Tourism. As a client, no matter from Europe or from Asia, require guidance to travel in those regions, these two will react immediately with their so-called instinct in addition to their formal education to provide all the necessary information or even accompany the groups that plan to travel.

Heliyan Tours & Travels provide predefined and customer-defined itineraries focusing on specific destinations (countries and cities) allowing travelers to feel comfortable but secure and achieve their travel goals.

Once an individual or group decides to travel with our organization, we would give preference to the goal-oriented desire of the customer by taking several factors into account. In this regard the language is playing a very important role. We are glad to say that, we only employ the tour guides who could explain everything in main European languages like English, French and German. It would ease smooth communication between the travelers and the guide when they are keen on understanding and experiencing the culture historical and prehistorical places and geographical locations in the destinations they intend to visit.

These two young pioneers who have founded Heliyan Tours & Travels are blessed with the appropriate guidance of their parents (of Sri Lankan origin) when they undertake tours for the Europeans visiting Sri Lanka.

The mother organization Heliyan International (pvt) Ltd is mainly involved in Imports from around the whole world and exports from Sri Lanka.

We are proud to announce that doing profitable business is our family tradition. Don Peter MANNAPPERUMA – the Great Grandfather of Tilini and Sacha – was the first in Sri Lanka to establish the business to import Bicycles and accessories. Later, his sons became the leading importers of first class Japanese Vehicles and spare parts in Sri Lanka. The name MANNAPPERUMA is written in the history of business in Sri Lanka as the pioneers of importing Vehicles, accessories, and tires over the period of 50 years.

This is a bit of information to describe the history of Heliyan International (pvt) Ltd, which has the roots in the ancestral business of Automobile Enterprise in Sri Lanka. Now, it has come to the third generation to continue with the pride of extending excellent services.

Having this great idea in mind to serve customers best, Tilini and Sacha are moving forward with the blessings of both parental and ancestral business ventures. The long family tradition in business and the close contacts, communication and cooperation with parents give these two young siblings to repeat the success that the MANNAPPERUMA family have already attained.
