Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about hiring a private guide in Sri Lanka.
Most private guide services range from about $40 to $80 per day based on language, season, and route complexity. Vehicle, hotels, and activity costs can be added separately or bundled in a full itinerary.
A driver-guide is one person handling both driving and practical guidance, which is cost-effective for couples and small groups. A separate guide with a dedicated driver can be better for larger groups or travelers wanting deeper historical interpretation.
We work with experienced local guides and driver-guides across culture, hill-country, safari, and coastal routes.
Typical inclusions are private air-conditioned transport, guide or driver-guide service, and itinerary planning support. Hotels, breakfasts, entrance tickets, train seats, and safaris can be optional based on your requested package.
