The Detailed Stuff…Booking – Pricing and Payment

The Art Escape price quoted is subject to change without prior notice. Sri Lankan Art Escapes Ltd will confirm all prices before you book your holiday, and what is included and excluded. Flights are NOT included.

A deposit made payable to Sri Lankan Art Escapes Ltd amounting to 25% (unless otherwise stated) of the total cost of the Art Escape, together with a signed Booking Form, is needed to confirm your place.

The final balance is due a minimum of 60 days prior to your departure. For bookings less than 60 days prior to your departure, full payment is required.

Pricing may be subject to changes, in the event of currency fluctuations or the introduction of new taxes, however, Sri Lankan Art Escapes Ltd will advise of any changes if these occur.

Please note: The trips require a minimum of 4 participating artists to depart. We strongly recommend you do not book any non-refundable flights or services before the trip is guaranteed to depart.

Accommodation and Supplements

If you are a solo traveller and you would prefer a single room, single supplements will usually apply, from the hotels. This will be confirmed at the time of booking. If you are happy to share accommodation with a fellow solo traveller, let us know at the time of booking. 

If you have special dietary or accommodation and travel requirements, please confirm at the time of booking, so that we may advise all parties applicable in order to meet your needs where necessary prior to your trip.

Flights and Transfers

You are responsible for booking your flights. However, we are happy to put you in touch with our contact at SL Ride.com in Sri Lanka who can help you arrange your flights if you prefer.

The passenger tickets issued by the airline, when issued to you following your booking with them, will constitute the sole contract between the airline and the purchaser of these tickets and/or passengers.

Your arrival day and departure day are on the dates advertised and confirmed by Sri Lankan Art Escapes Ltd when booking.

Transfers from and to Bandaranaike Airport during your Art Escape in Sri Lanka are included. In the event of flight delays or cancellations which means you cannot travel with the rest of the group, this may incur fees for an airport transfer.

Group transfers are included throughout via a fully-insured air-conditioned mini-bus. Associated fuel, toll and parking expenses are included.

Transport for additional excursions not included in the group itinerary may incur fees which will be confirmed at the time of booking.

Cancellations​

All cancellations should be made in writing and sent to the registered office of Sri Lankan Art Escapes, at Sri Lankan Art Escapes Ltd, 5 New Street, Ringwood, Hampshire, BH24 3AD. Only upon receipt of the cancellation will the cancellation procedure be put into place.

If you cancel your trip we will endeavour to rebook your place with another customer. On cancellations made outside 90 days prior to the date of departure, deposits will be returned less any expenses incurred, unless deposits were stated as non-refundable at the time of booking. Deposits are not refundable for any cancellations between 90 to 61 days prior to the date of departure. A charge of 50% of the total cost of the Art Escape will apply for cancellations between 60 and 45 days prior to the date of departure. Inside 45 days a charge of 100% of the cost of the Art Escape will apply. These cancellation conditions should be covered by your travel insurance. This procedure applies to all Art Escape itineraries booked via Sri Lankan Art Escapes Ltd.

In the unlikely event that we have to cancel the holiday, you will receive a full refund of monies paid to us.
