Its intricately carved coral stone walls and majestic golden dome exude timeless elegance, offering a glimpse into the island nation's cultural heritage.

As you wander through its grand halls, you'll feel transported to a bygone era of opulence and prestige. Step into the serene oasis of Sultan Park, once the private gardens of the sultans, now a tranquil haven amidst the bustling cityscape. Admire the lush greenery, blooming flowers, and tranquil ponds, perfect for a leisurely stroll or a moment of peaceful reflection. Finally, delve into the depths of history at the National Museum, housed in a magnificent Sultanate-era palace. Inside, a treasure trove of artifacts, from ancient royal regalia to intricate woodcarvings, offers insight into the Maldives' rich cultural heritage and maritime history.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you have any questions, here are the answers.

Daytrip is a platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door, from one city to the next. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.

All Daytrip bookings are one way. If you need a return trip on a different date, simply book this as a separate one-way trip. For a same-day excursion, please request a custom trip. If you plan to stay more than a couple hours, we still recommend booking two one way trips so you're not paying a driver for waiting.

For Daytrip’s private service, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24-hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15-minutes before departure. While you can cancel your booking for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance, changes requested under 36 hours are subject to driver availability, especially in the high season.

Simply choose your origin and destination via our homepage and enter your departure date and time. Browse and add sightseeing stops along the way by following the booking instructions provided on screen. It's a simple, easy, and fun way to book your next adventure! And if you don’t see your desired route on our website, you can request a custom trip. You can even book without knowing your exact pick-up or drop-off address - we let you add these later!

If you have oversized luggage, or are unsure if your luggage will fit, contact us.

Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.
