Legit community-based tourism: Community Homestays Sri Lanka, Sri Lanka Ecotourism Foundation (villages in Knuckles, near Sinharaja, Wewhena), and specific projects like Meemure village (mountain village stay), Belihuloya farmstays, and Bopath Ella village host homes.

Real village stay experiences: farm labor, cooking classes, forest walks with local naturalists. Income directly to families. Cost 3000-6500 LKR per person per night full board — reasonable. Simple accommodations (bucket bath, mosquito nets) but genuinely warm hosts.
