Sri Lanka Car Hire with Driver Prices | LankaMe Private Driver Cost Guide

LankaMe Price Guide

LankaMe prices are set at a level that allows us to secure reliable drivers, clean vehicles, and responsible support. We do not aim to be the cheapest option; we aim to provide a private driver service that travelers can use with confidence throughout their Sri Lanka journey.

Why LankaMe does not compete only on the lowest price

A very cheap private driver service may look attractive at first, but unusually low prices can come with hidden trade-offs: distance limits, extra charges, old vehicles, weak support, or unwanted shopping stops.

Our prices are designed to keep the service sustainable for professional drivers while giving guests a safer and more comfortable travel experience.

The table shows the total guide price for each plan. The final quotation may change depending on your exact route and travel conditions.

Payment breakdown: Your quotation separates the Agency Service Fee paid online to LankaMe from the Driver Fare paid directly to the driver or local transport operator, normally in LKR cash. Other currencies require the driver’s prior agreement. Local payment is normally split between the first and final days, or paid in full on the first day by agreement. The confirmed quotation sets the final amounts, currencies and schedule. See our payment FAQs and Terms of Use and Disclaimer.

For guests requesting French-, German- or Spanish-speaking drivers

French-, German- and Spanish-speaking chauffeur guides can be requested only with our Platinum Plan, which includes sightseeing guiding as well as driving. Across Sri Lanka, there are only 20 French-speaking, 30 German-speaking and 10 Spanish-speaking chauffeur guides who can provide the Platinum Plan. With so few qualified guides available, prices are higher than for English-speaking drivers.
