To travel from Kandy to Sigiriya by bus, you must first take any direct bus heading north towards Dambulla. The journey takes about two hours. Once you reach the main Dambulla bus station, you can easily catch a quick local bus or hire a tuk tuk for the short final ride to Sigiriya.

Gem Museum Commission ScamVerified
TukTuk or tour drivers take you to "gem museums" or "government-certified" gem shops. They receive huge commissions (up to 40%) on anything you buy. Prices are inflated 3-10x the actual value.

Unofficial Temple Guide ScamVerified
Men approach tourists near Temple of the Tooth offering to be guides. After the tour, they demand large "donations" or guide fees (5000-10000 LKR).
