FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Everything You Need to Know Before You Travel

Answers to the most common questions about our private tours, booking process, and on-ground support.

How do your private tours work?

Every tour is 100% private. You have a dedicated air-conditioned vehicle and an experienced licensed driver-guide exclusively for your party from airport arrival to departure. You can set the daily schedule, make spontaneous stops, and travel at your preferred pace.

Can we modify any of the sample tour itineraries?

Yes, completely. Every package on our site is a flexible starting point. We can easily add days, swap hotel tiers, add specific wildlife parks or cultural sites, or build a brand-new itinerary from scratch.

What is included in the tour quote?

Our quotes typically cover your private air-conditioned vehicle, all fuel and highway tolls, your licensed driver-guide (including their meals and accommodation), handpicked hotel stays with daily breakfast, and airport transfers. Entry tickets and safari jeeps can be included upon request.

What happens if our travel dates change?

We understand that flight schedules and holiday plans can change. We offer flexible date adjustments up to 30 days before arrival without administrative fees, subject to hotel availability.

Will we have support during our trip in Sri Lanka?

Yes. In addition to your on-ground driver-guide, our management team stays connected with you via WhatsApp 24/7 throughout your stay for quick assistance, restaurant recommendations, or itinerary adjustments.

Do you cater to families with young children or small groups?

We do. We arrange spacious high-roof passenger vans or mini-coaches with ample luggage capacity, and can provide child safety seats upon request. We also ensure family itineraries feature relaxed driving days.

How do we confirm a booking?

Once you are happy with your customized day-by-day proposal and quote, a deposit paid via secure online card payment or bank transfer confirms your driver-guide and hotel reservations.
