What it costs
| Transport | Quoted by the agent | No vehicle rates are published for this country yet. |

Indicative, and only for the part we hold published rates for. Nothing here is a quote — agents send those, and theirs are binding.
Common questions
What does a 10-day Sri Lanka trip include?
This one visits Nilaveli Beach, Uppuveli Beach, Marble Beach, Lover's Leap Waterfall and Hiriketiya Beach over 9 nights, arriving and leaving through Bandaranaike International Airport. Agents quote for private transport with a driver, accommodation and the activities you want — you compare the quotes and pick one.
How much driving is there?
About 406 km across 5 stops, measured between the coordinates we hold for each place and allowing for real roads. It is a planning figure, not a drive time — road conditions decide that, and the agent who knows them will say.
Is this route realistic in 10 days?
10 days means 4 moves across 9 nights — about 10 hours behind the wheel in total, about 2½ hours per relocation. That is a comfortable pace — no transfer takes most of a day.
Can this itinerary be changed?
Yes — it is a template, not a package. Swap a stop, add nights, or start from it in the trip planner and rebuild it around your own dates and party. Whatever you end up with is what agents quote against.
