How to Become a Royal Arabian Sri Lanka B2B Partner

BlogSri Lanka B2B Travel

Choosing the right ground partner can make or break your agency's Sri Lanka program. Royal Arabian operates as a dedicated Sri Lanka destination management company, built exclusively to serve travel agents, tour operators, and DMC networks - never competing for your direct clients. This article walks through exactly what the partnership involves and how your agency can get started.

About Royal Arabian in Sri Lanka

Royal Arabian's in-country team manages the full range of destination services: custom itinerary design, hotel and villa contracting, ground transport, safari and national park logistics, and 24/7 client support. Our model is built entirely around the B2B relationship - your agency owns the client, we own the ground execution.

Whether your clients are looking for luxury villas and boutique hotels, beach and hill country escapes, or wildlife and safari-focused group tours, our team has the local relationships to deliver it reliably.

Why Agencies Choose to Partner with Royal Arabian

  • Exclusively B2B - we never sell direct, so your client relationship stays fully protected
  • Transparent, commissionable net rates across our full supplier network
  • Fast quote turnaround, typically within 24-48 hours for standard itineraries
  • Dedicated account management - a single point of contact for your agency, not a shared inbox
  • 24/7 in-country emergency support for your clients while they travel
  • Full-service capability across FIT, groups, luxury, and MICE programs

These are the same core advantages we cover in more depth in Why Travel Agents Should Partner with a Sri Lanka DMC.

Steps to Becoming a Royal Arabian B2B Partner

Step 1: Submit a Partnership Enquiry

Reach out through our partnership team with basic details about your agency - target markets, typical client profile, and expected booking volume.

Step 2: Onboarding Call

Step 4: Submit Your First Quote Request

Send through your first client brief and our team will return a fully costed, bookable itinerary - typically within 24–48 hours.
