Taxi in Sri Lanka

Just how simple it is to take a taxi when you are in Sri Lanka - Sri Lanka Forum

I' ve searched the boards and searched Googel for replies and I' m stuck. I have seen a lot of guys arguing about personal trips and travel agents, but no real cabs, and trying to gull a taxi company in Sri Lanka hasn't brought me anything useful yet. There is no need for a trip, just the transportation to Kegalle.

So when I get to Sri Lanka, my query is how simple it is to find a taxi to drive us relatively long distance (this trip would take 1.30 hour according to Google). I screwed up my booking, so we end our elephant days at 16.30 in Kegalle and have to go to Wilpattu the same night.

So, is it simple to take a cab for such a long stretch? From Polgahawela I saw that we could take a rail from Polgahawela to Thambuttegama, but again, once in Thambuttegama, how simple (or not) would it be to take a taxi to Wilpattu? I had sent an e-mail to another company to take us from Wilpattu to Sigiriya a few working days later, as there seems to be no other way, but again no answer!

Even a hyperlink to a taxi company that responds to your mail would be a great help.

Latest Taxi Tariffs - Sri Lanka Forum

Ladies and Gentlemen, I have some queries about the taxi fares currently available on the website of the Swiss Airports Authority (http://www.airport.lk). The other way is to just use kangaroos or choose me. Inexpensive and more dependable than taxi services at airports. I would choose kangaroo for myself because I have had poor experience with the latter, but they are both equal, if not safer and more dependable than taxi cars.

You cited us Ikr1500 for an airfield pick-up with name plate (Dropoff in Negombo) and then persisted in Ikr2500 as they drove us off.

that kangaroo is a bad choice. However, if you use their application to make bookings, they are less expensive. 1,500k to negative is a gag. However, in relation to providing a vehicle to you they are dependable. I also had a similar blissful driver from a taxi at the station. Choose me over and these days I am using more and more WOW cabins..... really inexpensive and so far dependable...... all of them are optional.

For Negombo, kangaroo is a terrible business. Over cost about 2,000-2,500 LKR for airports, so still less expensive than other auto service and taxi. Lower than the offered Pick Me rate.
