Questions
Good to know
How is the price worked out?
It covers the car, its fuel and a professional driver for the distance of your trip. A one-way ride includes part of the car’s drive back, every day includes at least 100 km, and each night you keep the driver and car with you adds the driver’s food and room. Rides from the airport add a small charge for waiting and parking. You see the full price before you book.
How much do I pay online?
Only a small advance, by card through OnePay, to secure your ride. You pay the rest to your driver on the day.
Do you pick up at Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB)?
Yes, day and night. Add your flight number when you book and your driver will meet you in the arrivals hall with a name board.
Can I keep the same driver for a round tour?
Yes. Book the first leg online or message us your plan on WhatsApp and we will arrange one driver for the whole trip.
What if my plans change?
Message or call us on +94 76 115 1550 with your booking reference and we will help you change the time, place or vehicle.
