How do I get from Colombo International Airport to Colombo city centre?

Bandaranaike International Airport, also known as Colombo International Airport, is around 20 miles (32 kilometres) away from central Colombo. Book an airport transfer with Etihad and a driver will pick you up from arrivals and take you onward. Alternatively, there are taxis and regular bus services available.

Which Sri Lankan delicacies should I try?

Spicy curries, mountains of rice and plenty of seafood form the basis of Sri Lankan cuisine. The best food in Colombo can be found in the city’s street stalls and markets, where everything is usually cooked fresh to order in front of you. Be sure to sample kottu roti, fried crispy bread served with your choice of ingredients in a rich, curried sauce.

Diwali typically falls during mid-October to mid-November, with the exact date changing each year. It is one of the most important religious celebrations in Sri Lanka. Also known as the ‘Festival of Lights’, the annual event is celebrated by the island’s Hindus, Jains, Sikhs and some Buddhists. Homes and temples are illuminated with bright lights and rows of flickering oil lamps, while fireworks flash across the sky.
