In addition to the train trek and adventuring by bus, you also have plenty of taxi options вЂ“ nano cabs, taxi cars and if you are brave, the ever present tuk-tuk three wheeler. Arm yourself with a transport map and train schedule (also available online) and also maybe a hotel map Sri Lanka that will give you a pretty comprehensive ideas of hotels and guest houses and amenities available. If you plan on arranging your own transport once you have arrived in Sri Lanka, you have plenty of relatively inexpensive options. Make sure you also mark your travel map with the following that are MUST DoвЂ™s while in Sri Lanka вЂ“ Whale watching, a visit to one (or all ) of our national parks to observe wild life in their natural habitat and maybe enjoy some camping sri lanka style, and a visit to the Sinharaja rain forest ( you can even turn that into an adventure trek!), a sea bath in the azure blue seas off the south beaches of the island, and maybe even some rustic or luxury camping вЂ“ as the mood takes you вЂ“ during your holidays. Wet zones, dry zones which in turn give way to medicinal and indigenous fauna and flora that can be found growing quite unassumingly island-wide. There are so many different zones on this little island too.

The country might be a mere 65,610 kmВІ in size but there are a lot of twists and turns in the roads in the country and if you are not careful you might end up taking a wrong turn that will send you to the totally opposite side of the island. It always a good idea to keep your map handy when traveling in Sri Lanka.
