Warnings Or Dangers: watchout for the cab...
  • Tip Rating:
  • watchout for the cab drivers.....they try to over charge. If paying for the ride by KM, check it before you start the journey. Watch out for pick-pockets on crowded buses and trains....Like any crowded city in the world. Because of the unrest in the country, avoid government building or political meeting where there is alot of crowds. Make sure you carry your passport or ID at all times....There is alot of Police and army check points............

    Here is a picture of a over crowded train in Colombo.
