How it works
Booking a private driver in Sri Lanka takes five steps. You see exactly who's driving you, what you'll pay, and what's included — before you commit to anything.
STEP 1
Post your journey
Tell us your pickup, destination, dates, vehicle preference, and number of passengers. Add stops and waiting time for day tours. Multi-day itineraries welcome.
Your request is sent to every qualified driver in Sri Lanka simultaneously.
STEP 2
Receive bids from verified drivers
Verified drivers submit all-inclusive bids on your trip. Each bid covers fuel, tolls, parking, and everything else. Bids are blind — drivers compete on merit, not by undercutting each other.
You'll typically receive bids within 2 hours. Need more options? Extend the bidding window.
STEP 3
Compare profiles, reviews, and prices
See every driver's photo, vehicle, spoken languages, certification tier, trip count, and all reviews from past passengers. Compare all-inclusive prices side by side.
Take your time. There's no pressure to book immediately.
STEP 4
Book and pay securely
Choose your driver and pay online — 15% deposit or full amount, your choice. Rymgo holds your payment in escrow until your trip is complete.
You'll receive a booking confirmation with your driver's details. Driver contact information is released after the cancellation window.
STEP 5
Travel with confidence
Your verified driver meets you at the agreed time and place. One price, everything included. Rate your driver after the trip.
Full-payment bookings include a 24-hour dispute window. Rymgo intervenes directly if anything goes wrong.
Verified Drivers
Every driver ID, driving licence, vehicle registration and insurance checked by Rymgo before going live. Drivers with an official SLTDA tourist licence show a badge on their profile.
All-Inclusive Pricing
Fuel, tolls, parking, driver accommodation — every cost covered in one locked price.
Payment Protection
Pay by Visa, Mastercard, or Apple Pay. We hold your funds securely until your trip ends.
