Destination FAQs
Will I need travel insurance?

This is why we require everyone who travels with us to have their own travel insurance by the time they depart for the trip.

- Adventure activities included in the tour
- Medical expenses
- Personal belongings (in cases of lost luggage or theft)
- Missed flights
We advise you to check with your local Sri Lankan consulate or embassy to get the most up-to-date conditions. One Life Adventures cannot apply for your visa for you, so please make sure you have sorted it by the time you arrive!
