The absolute cheapest and most authentic way to get from Ahangama to Galle Fort is by hopping on the local coastal train. The ride takes about 30 minutes, costs pennies, and hugs the beautiful coastline.
Alternatively, you can simply flag down any local public bus heading west on the main road. They run constantly and will drop you off right outside the main gates of the Fort in Galle.
Scam Watch: galle
Someone befriends you and offers a "once in a lifetime" opportunity to buy gems at wholesale prices and resell them abroad for huge profit. They may show you fake export certificates. The gems are worthless glass or low-quality stones.
Restaurants without visible prices. Bill arrives with inflated charges (500 LKR coconut becomes 1500 LKR). "Service charges" added without disclosure.
