We are budget travelers planning to take the public bus from Colombo Fort to Kandy. What is the current fare and is there a difference for the air conditioned express buses.

The standard non air conditioned red CTB bus from Colombo Pettah to Kandy costs roughly two hundred and twenty rupees per person. The comfortable air conditioned intercity express bus costs around four hundred and fifty rupees and the journey is significantly faster taking about three hours.

Tourists pay exactly the same fare as locals on public buses. There is no special tourist pricing. Always keep small notes ready as the conductor will not always have change for a five thousand rupee note. The buses leave very frequently from the Bastian Mawatha terminal.
