For Sri Lankan travellers

The world, with your paperwork done

Group departures and private holidays from Colombo. Flights, hotels, visas and transfers in one price where listed, so all you carry is the itinerary.

How it works

Ceylon Carriers Travels has taken Sri Lankan families, church groups and friends abroad since 1973. Our escorted packages bundle the air ticket, hotels, visa handling and every transfer into one nett price per person.

You see the number before you commit. Three journeys below are priced and ready. Everything else on this page is planned to order. We quote it within the conversation, not after a form.

One price, one planAir ticket, hotel, visa and transfers together where the package lists them.

Before you book

Questions travellers ask us

What is included in the price?

Each package lists its own inclusions. Velankanni and the Bhutan and Golden Triangle journey include the air ticket, accommodation, visa handling, tours and transfers. Portugal includes hotels, an English-speaking guide, entrance fees and transfers, with flights quoted separately.

Are the prices per person?

Yes. Prices are nett per person on double sharing, so a couple sharing a room pays the listed price each. Single travellers and family rooms are quoted on request.

Do you handle the visa?

Where a package lists visa, we handle the application with you as part of the price. For any other destination, ask us and we will tell you what that embassy needs before you commit to dates.

Can we travel as our own private group?

Yes. Church groups, extended families and office trips travel on their own dates with their own escort. Tell us the headcount and the month and we will price it for the group.

When should we book?

Two to three months ahead for April, August and December departures. Flights out of Colombo fill before the hotels do. The fare is the part of the price that moves.
