- Step· May 25th, 2020Amazing trip! We travelled to Sri Lanka in August/September 2019 and had a great experience with Step Lanka and our driver and guide Tharaka. We visited some amazing places and Tharaka used his knowledge to make sure we were able to make the most of each destination. He also found us the best and most cost effective way of doing the excursions, trips and classes that we wanted to do - pigeon island snorkelling and cookery class, in particular. Thanks so much for an unforgettable trip. We hope to come back again soon! Alex and GemmaShow moreIntrepid Travel commented on this reviewThank you so much Alex & Gemma!

Arthur
Asked on October 19th, 2024Are additional services to be paid for extra to the holiday cost? I thought the trains, bikes safari etc were all inclusive in the original price?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written October 2024
Train ride, bike ride, safari, and visits to sites like the Dambulla Cave Temples, Sigiriya, and the Temple of the Tooth, are indeed part of the holiday package at no extra cost. These are covered in your original trip cost. However, some additional services will need to be paid for locally upon arrival in Sri Lanka, like the costs for certain entrance tickets, and other similar expenses. The approximate amount to be paid locally is around GBP 7.68 per person. This is not part of the pre-paid holiday cost and is to be settled directly during the tour.

Asked on February 3rd, 2024Do you charge extra for solo travellers?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written February 2024
We do have the single supplement option available for this tour if you want to have your own room with an additional cost. If you are okay to share rooms, then there won't be any costs.
