Our story

The airport is our home ground

Travel Ceylon Tours is run by a Sri Lankan family team from Katunayake — the town beside Bandaranaike International Airport — with decades in the island's airport travel trade.

Who we are

Local in the truest sense

Most travellers meet Sri Lanka for the first time in the arrivals hall at BIA. So did we — from the other side. Our team has spent decades in the airport travel trade at Katunayake: meeting flights, driving visitors the length of the island, and learning exactly what makes the difference between a trip and a great one.

Travel Ceylon Tours grew out of that experience. We are not a booking portal reselling other people's services — when you message us, you're talking to the people who will actually plan your route, and the guides who will drive it. Every chauffeur guide we work with is licensed, English-speaking, and someone we'd happily send our own family with.

We keep the model simple and honest: private vehicles priced per vehicle (not per head), fixed quotes agreed on WhatsApp before you fly, and itineraries that change freely when the weather, a festival or your mood says they should. The island rewards flexibility — our job is to make that effortless.

We're based in Katunayake, five minutes from the terminal. When your flight lands at 2am, that matters.

What we promise

Three commitments, kept on every tour

Honest quotes, no surprises

Fuel, tolls, parking and your guide's costs are all inside the price we agree. The number on WhatsApp is the number.

Guides we vouch for

Licensed, experienced, and chosen for warmth as much as knowledge — the guide makes the tour, so we don't compromise here.

Your trip, genuinely

We advise, you decide. If a cheaper or shorter route is the better trip for you, we'll say so — repeat guests are our business model.
