How it works

Four
unhurried
steps.

Most platforms make you do the work. We made the work disappear.

01

Tell us what you love

A sentence is enough. “Mountains, food, no crowds, two weeks.” A concierge takes it from there.

02

Get a draft in 60 seconds

An end-to-end itinerary — hotels, drives, food, the order of the days — costed and sent back to you.

03

Shape it with a human

A Colombo-based concierge refines the draft over chat or a video call. As many rounds as you need.

04

Land and let go

Driver at the airport. Hotels expecting you. One thread for everything else.

The Roamify promise

Four things we won't get wrong.

Drafted for you, vetted by locals

A concierge drafts your route — then a team in Colombo confirms every hotel, road, permit, and price before it reaches you.

One thread, all hours

A real concierge from the moment you book to the moment you fly home. No phone trees.

Sri Lanka, kept beautiful

1% of every trip funds reforestation in the central highlands. We measure it. You see the receipts.

Free changes, real refunds

Rebook for free up to 7 days before. Cancel for any reason up to 30 days before. No fine-print circus.

Verified guests

What travellers
are saying.

All reviews from real travellers, post-trip, no incentives. We publish them only once the traveller has told us we may.

Roamify will be my go-to travel partner. I had a hassle-free holiday. I believe it's more to do with the team's coordination that put me at ease. I had my own doubts in the beginning as I have never used a tour operator before but now I believe this is one of the easiest ways to enjoy a holiday. Special thanks to Ravindu for being such a wonderful driver, guide and a friend who kept us safe and engaged.

This trip was wonderfully customised based on our preferences, making sure that everyone in the group could enjoy it to the fullest. Every place we visited has left us with beautiful memories. The calmness of Anuradhapura, spotting leopards in Wilpattu, and the excitement of snorkelling and whale watching were some of the highlights of our trip. Although our stay was quite short, we truly enjoyed every moment and would definitely love to come back to explore and experience more of this beautiful country.

The Concierge

A human, on the other end of every message.

From the moment you book until the day you fly home, you have one in-app thread with a Colombo-based concierge. Reschedule a driver, swap a hotel, change a meal.

sinharaja rainforest
Sri Lanka, kept beautiful

We don't just take you
there. We plant a piece of it.

Every trip funds reforestation in the Sinharaja and Knuckles ranges, through our partnership with Rainforest Rescue International. You receive the plot's GPS coordinates after travel.

FAQ

Things people actually ask.

Don't see yours? Our concierge will reply — even before booking.

Ask a real human

Who actually books my trip?

A Colombo team confirms every single component before you pay. No surprise availability gaps. No hotels you’ve never heard of, booked without a human looking.

Can I change my mind after booking?

Yes. Rebooking is free until 7 days before departure. Cancellation refunds are full until 30 days before, then taper transparently — published before you pay.

Does Roamify cover the whole island?

Yes — and a few places that aren’t on the standard map. Hill country, cultural triangle, all coasts, plus the lesser-travelled east and far north.

What if something goes wrong on the trip?

You’ll have one direct line — your concierge — available around the clock in your timezone. Drivers, hotels and emergency services are pre-coordinated.

How does the 1% reforestation work?

We partner with Rainforest Rescue International (Sinharaja and Knuckles range). Every trip funds a measurable number of trees; you’ll receive the plot coordinates after travel.

Can I book just one experience, not a full trip?

Of course. Many travellers book a single day-trip or short escape rather than a full itinerary. Same concierge, same standards.
