Who We Are

Born in the Maldives.
Built for explorers.

Ark Quests is not a hotel booking service. We are a team of Maldivian travel designers who craft multi-day journeys across the archipelago — blending culture, adventure, and luxury in ways that only locals can.

Our Story

From a dhoni on the Indian Ocean to your inbox

Ark Quests started with a simple frustration: visitors were flying thousands of miles to see the Maldives, but only ever seeing one resort island. The real Maldives — the inhabited islands, the local teashops, the fisherman's dawn — remained invisible.

We set out to change that. As a team of Maldivians with deep roots across the atolls, we designed journeys that weave together luxury stays, local life, and natural wonder. Each quest is a hand-drawn route across islands, connecting experiences that no resort itinerary could offer.

Today, we work with travelers from over 30 countries, but our mission hasn't changed: to share the Maldives as we know it — in all its layered, breathtaking, surprising beauty.

What Guides Us

Our values

The principles that shape every journey we design.

Authenticity First

We show you the Maldives through Maldivian eyes — real islands, real people, real stories. No manufactured resort bubbles.

Handcrafted, Not Templated

Every quest is built from scratch for you. We listen, we design, we iterate — until the itinerary feels like it was written just for you.

Sustainable Travel

We partner with local communities and eco-conscious operators. Your journey supports the islands you visit.

Local Expertise

Our team was born and raised in the Maldives. We know every atoll, every current, every hidden sandbank worth waking up early for.
