Why Tailor-Made

A Holiday Built Around You, Not A Brochure

A tailor-made tour means nothing is fixed until you are happy with it. You choose when to travel, where to go and how long to stay in each place, and we take care of the planning, the hotels and the logistics.

Because we are based in Sri Lanka, we can advise honestly on routes, driving times and the best season for each region, so your itinerary is realistic as well as memorable. Whether you dream of culture and tea country, wildlife and beaches, or a slow, romantic honeymoon, your private Sri Lanka tour is planned from scratch around you.

Questions

Tailor-Made Tour FAQs

Everything you need to know about planning a private, tailor-made Sri Lanka tour with us. Can’t find your answer? Just ask.

What is a tailor-made tour?

A tailor-made tour is a private holiday planned from scratch around you. Instead of joining a fixed group itinerary, you tell us your dates, interests, travel style and budget, and we design a day-by-day route, choose hotels to match and arrange a private vehicle with your own chauffeur-guide.

How much does a tailor-made Sri Lanka tour cost?

The price depends on the length of your trip, the number of travellers, the time of year and the hotels you choose. Share your budget in the trip planner and we will design the trip to fit it, then send you a clear written quote showing exactly what is included.

Do you charge for planning my itinerary?

No. Your itinerary and quote are free, with no obligation to book. We are happy to revise the plan until it feels right.

How far ahead should I start planning?

The earlier the better, especially for travel between December and April, when the most popular hotels fill up quickly. We can often arrange a trip at short notice too, so get in touch even if your dates are close.

Can I change the plan during my trip?

Usually, yes. Your chauffeur-guide and our team stay in touch throughout your tour, and we will do our best to adapt the plan if you want to stay longer somewhere or try something new. If a change affects a hotel booking or the price, we will always tell you first.

Can you plan a honeymoon or a family holiday?

Yes. Tell us about the occasion and who is travelling, and we will choose the pace, hotels and experiences to suit, from romantic hideaways for couples to shorter drives and family rooms for travellers with children.

How long should my Sri Lanka tour be?

We can plan anything from a few days to a grand tour of three weeks or more. For a first visit, ten to fourteen days lets you see the Cultural Triangle, the hill country, a national park and the coast without rushing.
