 England Tour of Sri Lanka 2007 - Why Red Dot




Red Dot has Official Tour Agent status for the 2007 England tour of Sri Lanka






The Sri Lanka Specialists

With seven years experience of working in Sri Lanka we know just about every beach, bar, cricket ground and hotel. We don’t always go for obvious choices because we know the hidden treasures and that is what makes our tours special.

Red Dot Events

We combine our wealth of knowledge of the island with a day to day interaction with Sri Lankan cricket. Red Dot are in a position to organise unique events during the tour; from cricket on the Galle pitch to relaxed cricket sixes in Colombo and a chance to meet some of the players.

Friends of Sri Lanka

Red Dot have a year round commitment to Sri Lanka and have been selling holidays solely to this region for several years. Our loyalty to the island is rewarded by the hotels who give us great rates and rooms. It has also ensured a fantastic selection of Red Dot handled properties for the England tour.

Value for Money

Our holiday planning takes place primarily in Colombo. We can offer you such competitive prices that there is no point struggling on alone. And we like to think that our commitment to our customers has become widely appreciated.

Trust Red Dot, and your money will not subsidise plush UK offices, large secretarial staffs or expensive brochures. Rest assured, we will spend your money where it really matters - in the country that you plan to tour.

Explore the Red Dot site and you can find a host of information on just about every aspect of your Sri Lanka holiday – and, if you can’t find it, just ask us.

Reduce the risk of fraud:

The UK Foreign Office website warns of increased dangers of credit card fraud for independent travellers in many parts of the world -- including Sri Lanka.

Reduce that risk by booking your hotels with Red Dot. You can book either months or days in advance, paying on our HSBC secure servers. We will protect your finances without cramping your style.

Fair policy on refunds

Red Dot values your personal safety and we have a clearly-stated refunds policy in the event of an outbreak of terrorism. Sri Lanka has had a troubled history -- and travel insurance policies often give inadequate cover. If the UK Foreign office (or, in the case of non-UK travellers, their own government body) advises against travel to any of your destinations, we guarantee the following refunds in event of cancellation: One month or more before travel: 100 per cent. Less than one month: 90 per cent. During your holiday: All recoverable costs. Furthermore, we voluntarily return all recoverable costs in the event of all cancellations, above and beyond our booking conditions, when we see sound reason fore doing so.

Peace of mind

For your extra peace of mind, Red Dot is a UK limited company, operating under EC travel regulations. Fly with us from the UK and you gain the benefit of full ATOL protection on all flight-related holiday. See http://www.caa.co.uk/default.aspx?categoryid=27 for more details. But we cater for independently-minded travellers from anywhere in the world. All Red Dot's bookings operate under clearly-stated, legally-acceptable booking conditions - unlike some of our rivals who act merely as facilitators and accept no legal responsibility.

Flexibility and independence

Whatever your requirements, we always strive to tailor your itinerary to your own wishes. We recognise the yearning of many independently-minded travellers to experience Sri Lanka "unpackaged."

We offer total flexibility. Whether you are looking for a full holiday package or just a night in a favourite hotel, we will provide knowledgeable and independent advice and committed personal service.

Spoiled for choice

No company offers a more varied choice of Sri Lanka hotels than Red Dot -- from rural hideaways to favourite beach haunts. All of them are checked and assessed on a regular basis.

Our island tours can possess the extra little touches that will bring them alive. Our highly-regarded drivers operate under a Red Dot code encouraging good practice between driver and client. We can also offer self-drive car hire, train travel or (for the luxury traveller) an internal sea plane or helicopter service.


Ask Three Simple Questions

Booking a holiday has never been more confusing. The Internet is awash with travel companies promising to end the days of the traditional High Street travel shop. The choice seems limitless.

But ask yourself these three simple questions:

(i) Does the company really have a specialist knowledge of Sri Lanka?

(ii) Does the company offer proper booking conditions and official licensing      that you can trust?

(iii) Will the company respond flexibly to your individual needs?
