Frequently asked questions
Is fuel included in the daily rate?
For a normal touring day of roughly 120–150 km, yes on most listings — check the "what's included" panel for how many vehicles matching your itinerary include it. Long transfer days sometimes carry a per-kilometre surcharge instead.
Do I pay for the driver's hotel and meals?
Most drivers arrange their own accommodation and meals on multi-day trips, and it's commonly folded into the daily rate rather than billed separately — again, the inclusion panel reflects real listings for your current search.
What is typically not included?
Entrance tickets to sites like Sigiriya or the Temple of the Tooth, safari jeep hire inside national parks, and highway tolls are usually paid separately from the driver day-rate.
How accurate is this estimate?
It is built from the current rates of approved drivers on carwithdriver.lk and real road distances between your stops — not a flat industry average. Final pricing comes from drivers themselves once you request quotes for your exact itinerary.
Can I change the itinerary after booking?
Small changes are normally fine and agreed with your driver directly. If you add days or change the route significantly, your driver sends an updated offer before the trip starts.
