    Pauline

    Asked on August 26th, 2026

    I am planning to visit Sri Lanka in late October into November. Have been looking at this 8 day trip. Just wondering if it's possible to start this on the 28th October (my intended arrival date). I can see the normal departure date is the 27th. Also how much is the trip for a solo traveller?

    Tour Details
    • ASY Tours Sri LankaOperator•Written August 2026

      Kindly note that we currently do not have a confirmed group departure for the 28th of October 2026. However, we can arrange a private tour for you starting on your preferred date. If you are interested in a private tour, please let us know, and we will be happy to prepare a suitable itinerary and quotation for you, including the price for a solo traveller. Alternatively, we currently have two confirmed departures for our Discover Sri Lanka Beauty – 12 Days tour: 19 October 2026 and 02 November 2026. If either of these dates works for you, we would be happy to provide you with the booking details and pricing.

  • C

    Christopher

    Asked on July 28th, 2026

    I'm considering booking the Golden Sri Lanka 8-Day tour for a September 2026 departure. I understand Yala National Park is typically closed in September for the dry season — could you let me know what safari park you'd substitute instead (Udawalawe, Minneriya, etc.) for that date?

      Christopher

      Traveler•Written July 2026

      If I were to join the 8th of September tour group and I wanted 1 day in Colombo or Negombo before the tour officially started (before Negombo --> Sigiriya on Day 2), would that be possible? Could I land in Colombo airport on Monday, 7th of September and still be picked up from the airport? And pay for the 1 night of extra accomodation beforehand?

    • ASY Tours Sri LankaOperator•Written July 2026

      Kindly note that the news regarding the possible closure of the national parks in September has not yet been officially confirmed. If we receive any official information, we will certainly keep you updated as soon as possible.

    • ASY Tours Sri LankaOperator•Written July 2026

      Of course, you are welcome to arrive in Sri Lanka earlier. You may choose to stay in either Negombo or Colombo before the tour. We recommend staying in Negombo, as it is the closest city to the airport and is much more convenient after a long international flight. If you would like, we can arrange your pre-tour accommodation for you. Alternatively, you are welcome to book your own hotel if you prefer. Please note that complimentary airport transfers are only provided for arrivals and departures on the official tour start and end dates. Arrivals or departures on other dates are subject to an additional transfer charge. Our transfer rates are as follows: Airport to Negombo: USD 30.00, Colombo to Bandaranaike International Airport: USD 55.00

      Christopher

      Traveler•Written July 2026

      I'm wanting to book the tour that starts on 8th of September. But my flight would land at Colombo on the 7th of September. Could I be picked up from the airport that day on the 7th? And pay for that 1 extra night in Negombo?

    • ASY Tours Sri LankaOperator•Written July 2026

      Of course! We can arrange an extra night's stay in Negombo and pick you up from the airport on 7 September before your tour begins on 8 September. Please find the additional costs below: Extra night in Negombo: USD 80.00, Airport transfer to Negombo: USD 30.00. We will be happy to arrange both your airport pickup and pre-tour accommodation, so you can relax after your flight before joining the tour the following day.

    • C

      Christopher

      Traveler•Written July 2026

      May land at 7PM (19:00) on the 8th. Would that still work?

    • ASY Tours Sri LankaOperator•Written July 2026

      of course we can do the pickup on 8th.
