taxi cost from browns to colombo

thinking of spending a few hours in colombo what would the taxi cost be from browns beach resort

taxi cost from browns to colombo

35 km Colombo - Negombo times 2 makes 70 km. Roundtrip fare Rs 35 so that is about Rs 2,500 - actually not much different from one-way airport-Colombo fare but that one includes a (right, parking fees) airport surcharge...

thanks for that won,t break the bank as 4 of us sharing the taxi lol,is there much you,d recommend doing while in colombo

Shop till you drop, that%26#39;s the main attraction there. Better keep the taxi as the places are quite scattered: Odel near Town Hall (luxury), Pettah Bazaar and Laksala (traditional), Majestic City in Bambalapitiya (large mall), House of Fashions nearby (outlet store),... And have lunch/tea at the city beach, best is Mount Lavinia (near Majestic City).

All the best,

In my experience drivers charge more for driving around in Colombo city. You will be stuck in traffic but the AC is still running, so greater fuel consumption. IMO you will not get a taxi from Negombo to Colombo and back for less than LKR 4500.

Hans is spot on with his price , i would be wary of paying any less for a colombo shopping trip.
