Imagine being able to tell your mates that you navigated hundreds of miles around Sri Lanka in a Tuk Tuk. And not just navigated, but you drove it yourself!
Take on this epic challenge and make a difference! CAFT and Large Minority have worked hard to create the ultimate road trip – a road trip that will provide a truly unique and unforgettable travel experience on the beautiful island of Sri Lanka. This experience of a lifetime will make a huge difference both those who take part, but also to children whose lives are impacted by illness, disability and social disadvantage from Northwest communities.
Each Tuk Tuk can hold up to 3 people, so we recommend chatting to family, friends and colleagues about pulling together a 2 to 3 person team to take on the challenge, or sign up as an individual and trust us to place you in the best team!
Feedback from 2023 participants:
“If you’re remotely unsure, just book it. It was an amazing experience”
“What a challenge it was, but what an adventure too. I have returned physically and mentally stronger. One of the best experiences of my life!”
“What an amazing trip – I’d recommend to anyone! You really haven’t lived until you’ve driven a Tuk Tuk around Sri Lanka – it was the ultimate thrill! It’s such a beautiful country, and this is a unique way to see it, you feel like a local as soon as you get behind the wheel, it really so much fun, I’m not sure I’ve ever laughed so much! Our trip was so brilliantly organised, we were kept safe by the local crew and were made to feel so welcome everywhere we went. A trip we’ll never forget!”
