From other cities in Sri Lanka, you can get to Colombo by bus or train, with direct routes available from almost anywhere. Buses are the most common method, running frequently and very cheaply, connecting Colombo to all corners of the island. For example, from Kandy, Galle, or Trincomalee, there are regular services, and the fare is just a few dollars. Trains are also convenient, especially on popular routes like Kandy or Ella, where there are special tourist carriages with comfortable seats.
Buses arrive at one of three stations in the Pettah area: the state-run Colombo Central, private long-distance, or suburban stations, all located near the Colombo Fort railway station. Trains arrive at Colombo Fort, the country's main railway hub. For rare destinations, such as Arugam Bay, a transfer may be required, but it's possible to get there within a day. It's best to check schedules on carrier websites or with locals, who are always helpful in finding the right transport.
