Who is a Discoverer?
Someone who lives in Sri Lanka and knows its hidden places.
A Discoverer is anyone in Sri Lanka who knows a beautiful place, a local custom or a small festival that travellers would love, and is happy to show it to us on video.
You do not need a licence or a business. You need a phone, a place you love, and a few minutes to film it. The Sarisara team visits the best places, checks them, and builds them into the trips our guides lead.
How you help
Three simple things.
- You find the places that are not on every map yet.
- You film them so we can see them as a traveller would.
- You share what only a local knows: the best time, the way in, the story.
Discoverers are opening soon.
We are not taking Discoverers yet. Join the list below: when we open, the Sarisara team looks at every video and invites the people chosen, by email.
How to record your video
Hold your phone upright, start with yourself, then show us the place.
Step 1
Start with you
Hold your phone upright (9:16) and face the camera. Say your name, your village or town, and the name of the place.
Step 2
Turn the camera around
Turn the phone slowly to the place. Walk a little and show it the way a traveller would see it on arrival.
Step 3
Show how to get there
Show a road sign, a turn-off or a landmark near the place, and say how long it takes from the nearest town.
Step 4
Tell us what is special
The best time of day, what to bring, what makes it worth the journey. One to three minutes is enough.
Step 5
Put it online and paste the link
Upload the video to YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, Instagram or Vimeo as public or unlisted, then paste its link in the form below.
