Lets Go Maldives has been named Maldives’ Leading Tour Operator 2026 by the World Travel Awards, marking a major milestone for the Maldives-based Destination Management Company as it celebrates 21 years in tourism.
The award was announced at the World Travel Awards Asia, Oceania & Indian Ocean Gala Ceremony 2026, held at CROSSROADS Maldives on 27 September 2026.

The next chapter: local expertise meets travel technology
While Lets Go Maldives celebrates 21 years of experience, the company is also looking towards the future of Maldives tourism.
Travellers increasingly discover destinations through artificial intelligence, conversational search and personalised digital experiences. Lets Go Maldives believes the future will combine technology with human hospitality and local destination expertise.
This direction includes Kamana, the Maldives AI Concierge, developed to make Maldives knowledge more accessible through artificial intelligence and conversational travel assistance.
The objective remains the same as it was when Lets Go Maldives began in 2005: help people experience the Maldives with confidence, knowledge and someone they can trust on the ground.
The technology may change. The human promise should not.
