The roads are terrible in SL, but it is windy coming down from the Hill Country. We hired a car and driver for the day -- much easier and convenient for a day trip to Dambulla/Sigiriya. Your hotel should be able to arrange this for you.<br /><br />enjoy SL and have some dim sum for me!<br /><br />Best from London!

We are just starting to research Sri Lanka for our 9 day trip in Easter, and came across your blog which trying to build an itinerary :-) <br /><br />My question is about arranging transport: did you hire a driver during your stay or is it better to go through an agency? We'd prefer not to drive since I've heard road conditions aren't great, and we are completely unfamiliar with the country.<br /><br />Would appreciate any tips on place-to-place travel in Sri Lanka, thanks!LoveBiteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16560862497782683084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-682415251454814438.post-83401651267749592472012-02-28T00:57:26.893+00:002012-02-28T00:57:26.893+00:00You'll love Sri Lanka.

Prices are steep by worth it IMHO especially if you visit Polonawara, Anuradhapura, Sigiriya, The major ones, they do check your ticket but they are a bit more relaxed with the smaller temples. <br /><br />Enjoy your trip to SL! Also note the new visa fees too FYI.Lily and Keenanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14010020208205966818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-682415251454814438.post-43719212298656141832012-02-19T02:46:26.618+00:002012-02-19T02:46:26.618+00:00We are doing the cultural triangle next week and w...We are doing the cultural triangle next week and we are shocked about the prices. Man ... since we want to cover as much as possible during our time this will take a huge cut of our budget. We planned to stay in Anuradhapura for 14 days to write in depth. How often did they check your tickets?<br /><br />Hmm ... it's already funded by the UN, plus ticket prices, plus donations!<br /><br />Still under shock!Sri Lanka Travel Bloghttp://srilanka.for91days.com/noreply@blogger.com
