Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for Colombo to Galle Day Trip
The best time to visit Sri Lanka depends on which part of the country you plan to explore. Generally, December to March is ideal for the west and south coasts as well as the hill country, offering the best weather for beach activities and sightseeing. For the east coast, the best time is from April to September.
Most travelers need to obtain an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) before entering Sri Lanka. This can be done online and is typically valid for 30 days. Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months from the date of entry. Check the specific visa requirements based on your nationality well in advance of your trip.
It’s recommended to be up-to-date on routine vaccines such as measles, mumps, rubella (MMR), diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis, varicella (chickenpox), polio, and your yearly flu shot. Additionally, vaccines for hepatitis A and typhoid are advised, as you might be exposed to contaminated food or water. Consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice based on your health and travel plans.
It is not recommended to drink tap water in Sri Lanka. Always opt for bottled water, which is widely available and affordable. Ensure that the seal on the bottle is intact before purchasing. Also, avoid ice in drinks unless you are certain it is made from purified water.
The local currency is the Sri Lankan Rupee (LKR). It’s advisable to carry some cash for small purchases and tips. Major cities and tourist areas accept credit cards at hotels, restaurants, and shops. ATMs are available in urban areas, but it’s wise to inform your bank of your travel plans to avoid any issues with card transactions.
