About Car with driver

Driving yourself is possible with a Sri Lankan permit, but most visitors hire a car with a driver for a tour of the island. Book through your hotel or an operator registered with the Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority (SLTDA), and agree the route, days and costs in writing.
