Sri Lanka in a wheelchair
Sri Lanka in a wheelchair
Posted by Josh Grisdale on August 19, 2018 at 1:39 pmHey,
I just watched a documentary about Sri Lanka and now I want to go! Has anyone traveled to Sri Lanka in a wheelchair? Are there any service providers that offer accessible holidays?
Thanks in advance!

I think I heard that Roll in Asia Tours is offering a Sri Lanka tour now… can you confirm @charlotte?
Yes indeed, Roll in Asia offers a accessible tours to Sri Lanka for manual wheelchair users. There is no adapted van so it can not host electric wheelchairs. For more details about the tours please follow the below link: http://rollinasia-travel.com/en/handicap-travel-asia/srilanka
@charlotte thanks for the details! Hopefully in the future you can get a van with ramps as well 🙂
Rather than booking it from here, I would suggest you to get down at Colombo and book your agency from there.
It would be cheap and you will have the option to negotiate as well.
Plus there is a Srilankan Tourism booth as well.
Would suggest you to visit there.
Hope this answer helpsHello Tirthankar,
Unfortunately not all travel agencies understand the needs of travelers on wheels. Also, when you have only a few days of holidays one certainly do not want to spend the begining of the trip trying to plan its trip and find a potentially suitable service provider.
I suppose it is more comfortable to depart home with a reliable travel itinerary from a specialized agency answering your requirements so once on spot one just simply enjoy the holidays and relax !
