Complete package overview
An active 4-day complete Sri Lanka holiday designed for photographers, birders and specialist nature groups, including selected hotels, daily breakfast, private chauffeur transport and the listed experiences across Kandy • Nuwara Eliya photo route • Ella. The route includes accommodation, private chauffeur travel and a planned sightseeing programme. Entrance tickets and variable supplier activity fees are added only when specifically stated or requested in the final quotation. We can adjust nights, hotel category, meal plan, room type and activity level before confirmation.
Choose your hotel level
Each level remains a complete package. Only the accommodation standard, vehicle level, meal plan and experience detail change.
Specialist supplier: The public FROM price covers the selected hotel package and Trustker private chauffeur logistics. A specialist bird guide, wildlife naturalist, photography mentor, hides/blinds, dedicated photo vehicle setup, extra safari jeep seats or other expert supplier is included only when the final quotation explicitly lists that service. Trustker matches the specialist to the guest's exact interest, dates and language before confirmation.
Field timing: Photography days are intentionally flexible around sunrise/sunset light, mist, rain, wildlife movement and local access. A listed photo location is a planning target rather than a guarantee of a particular light condition, animal position or unobstructed viewpoint.

Variable entrance tickets and activity supplier fees are separate unless specifically stated as included.
