| Tour General Information
●About the time required for sightseeing
The estimated sightseeing time is about 1.5 to 3 hours. (This may vary depending on the schedule, location, and weather.) The time can be adjusted, so please feel free to contact us in advance if you have any requests.
●About the pick-up area
The driver will flexibly accommodate stops at supermarkets and rest stops along the travel route, so please feel free to consult us on the day. (If the travel distance exceeds the limit due to a major change in route, etc. (approximately 20 km), an additional fee will be charged locally. Please keep this in mind.)
●About meals
Outside of urban areas such as Colombo and Kandy, there are limited restaurants, and there are often no restaurants within walking distance of hotels and tourist spots. In
our plan, we will basically take you to the hotel buffet for breakfast and dinner, and to a local restaurant along the way for lunch. (Breakfast will be at the hotel the night before.)
Even if the plan does not include meals, we will provide transportation to places where you can eat. (Meals will be paid locally.)
If you have a request for a restaurant, please let us know in advance.
●About drivers/guides
Except for Japanese guides, there will be only one driver, and we cannot accompany you during sightseeing or meals, as you will not be able to leave the private car.
●About programs paid for locally
Train arrangements, Ayurveda, meals at hotels, marine sports, and other special arrangements are basically paid for locally.
●When using trains
We cannot arrange trains alone, so if you would like to arrange trains, we can only do so in conjunction with a package (airline ticket + local arrangements/local arrangements only)
*Please note that we cannot arrange trains if you only charter a private car.
●Please be careful to check that your passport has not expired and that your visa is incomplete.
Please note that we cannot take responsibility if you do not check for yourself.
(Sri Lanka has required a visa to enter Sri Lanka since January 2012.)
It usually takes about two weeks from application to receipt of a passport. (Varies depending on the time of year)
Please prepare well in advance.
