Colombo, Sri Lanka
Colombo was the first city we visited and after landing at 4 am our driver
decided to get us around the city. We were tired after two long flights but so
excited to discover a new country. The best thing about getting around so early
is that you don’t get much traffic and you are able to enjoy the city in the
right way. Our first advice before landing is to hire a driver, that will take
you to your hotel destination. Outside of the airport, you will find taxi and
tuk-tuk, ready for a ride, but planning in advance, especially if is the first
time in a country. Colombo is a busy city but with its own charm, soon as you
land you will understand why.
