Best transport Colombo to Mirissa (150km, 2.5-3 hours): expressway. Options: (1) Train (scenic where available), (2) Chauffeur car (comfortable, USD 60-120), (3) Bus (cheap LKR 400-1500, slow), (4) PickMe/Uber (available in cities). Choose based on time vs comfort vs budget.

Recommendation: for scenic routes take train, for efficiency book chauffeur, for budget try bus (with adjustment). Sri Lanka Southern Expressway makes some routes much faster.
