Colombo is an excellent base for day trips. The historic coastal town of Galle (about 2 hours south) is a popular choice, as is the beach town of Bentota. The cultural city of Kandy (roughly 3 hours away) and the ancient ruins of Anuradhapura are also reachable for those with more time.
Colombo is generally considered safe for visitors. Petty theft can occur in crowded areas like Pettah Market, so keep an eye on your belongings. Solo female travelers are advised to exercise extra caution when out late at night. Overall, locals are welcoming, and the city has a calm atmosphere compared to other large South Asian capitals.
The city center has some walkable areas, but uneven pavements and heavy traffic can make it challenging for strollers and wheelchairs. Major landmarks like Galle Face Green and the Gangaramaya Temple are easier to navigate, while older neighborhoods like Pettah are more difficult on foot. Private transport is recommended for comfortable sightseeing.
Top highlights include the Gangaramaya Temple, the Red Mosque (Jami Ul-Alfar Mosque) in Pettah, Galle Face Green seafront promenade, and the Colombo National Museum. The Beira Lake area and the Dutch Hospital shopping precinct are also popular spots worth a visit.
Sri Lanka uses the Sri Lankan Rupee (LKR). US dollars are widely accepted for currency exchange at banks and authorized money changers, and smaller denominations ($20 or $50) are preferred. While cards are accepted in hotels and larger restaurants, it is a good idea to carry cash for markets, street food, and smaller local shops.
The ideal time to visit is between December and March, when the weather is dry, sunny, and cooler. April through November brings the southwest monsoon, which can bring heavy rain, especially in May and June. That said, rain showers in Colombo tend to be brief and rarely derail a full day of sightseeing.
Sinhala and Tamil are the two official languages of Sri Lanka. English is widely spoken in Colombo, particularly in hotels, restaurants, and business settings, so most visitors will have no trouble getting around or communicating with locals.
Do not leave without trying kottu roti (chopped flatbread stir-fried with vegetables, egg, and meat), hoppers (bowl-shaped rice pancakes), and a classic rice and curry lunch. Street snacks called shorties, along with a cup of sweet, frothy Ceylon tea, are a must for any food lover.
