Your experience makes every journey more meaningful
LankaTrip values the knowledge you have built through every route, guest, and story — whether you are established or at the start of your guiding career.
Direct traveller requests
Travellers planning Sri Lanka trips find you by district, language, and speciality, and contact you directly — no middlemen between you and your guests.
You set your own rates
Publish clear day rates, transfers, and shared-cost options. Travellers see honest pricing up front, so enquiries you get are serious ones.
A verified badge travellers trust
Your identity and guide licence are reviewed by the LankaTrip team. The verified badge tells travellers they are booking a genuine, credentialed guide.
