Serendipity, Sri Lanka’s luxury Destination Management Company (DMC) has announced its strategic focus on targeting the super niche segment of the Indian tourism market. With a focus on the growing Indian outbound travel market, Serendipity aims to tap into the growing demand for high-end, personalized travel experiences among Indian travellers.
India has consistently ranked among the top five leading primary markets for Sri Lanka’s inbound tourism, making it an attractive prospect for tourism-related businesses. In 2023 alone, India contributed to over 300,000 tourist arrivals, marking a noteworthy uptick in the overall growth of the tourism sector. Recent statistics further underscore this trend, with approximately 30,000 Indian travellers visiting Sri Lanka in March alone. Notably, the first quarter of 2024 witnessed an influx of around96,000 Indian tourists to Sri Lanka, indicative of a steady rise in Indian outbound travel.
The proximity of Sri Lanka to India, coupled with short flight durations and hassle-free visa services, positions the island nation as an appealing destination for Indian travellers seeking short-haul luxury vacations. Serendipity recognizes this unique advantage and is poised to capitalize on it by offering curated experiences tailored to meet the diverse preferences of luxury-seeking Indian travellers.
Shaleen Shanthikumar, Director, Serendipity Experience said, “India represents a lucrative market for luxury travel experiences, and we are excited to announce our targeted approach towards catering to the super niche segment of Indian travellers.

Serendipity is poised to elevate travel experiences beyond conventional offerings, with an emphasis on crafting long-lasting memorable journeys. With the recent trends indicating steady growth in tourist arrival from India to Sri Lanka, Serendipity has an optimistic outlook on the potential for revenue growth and market expansion.
