Sri Lanka is extremely easy as DIY holiday especially if you use the Driver/guide that he used. We have been twice – once backpacking doing it all on public transport and last year doing a combination of @strickers driver then drivers from place to place at the end as we were staying a few days in each and didn’t need excursions.
@qc hi, can you let me know how and where did you book the individual drivers to take you place to place? Thank you! We just managed to bag club seats back from the Maldives which has made this trip far easier than 15 hours overnight trip in Y on Qatar!
I just searched Tripadvisor for recommendations – each area has a list of taxi firms etc – they were fine but nowhere near as good as Nandika and in one case the driver we booked sent his cousin instead which I wasn’t happy about!
