Is there a direct bus from Colombo to Ambewela.
1 Answer from travellers
There is absolutely utterly fundamentally no direct massive long distance express or luxury intercity AC bus reliably connecting Colombo directly straight through to the highly remote tiny deeply elevated rural highland station of Ambewela. If you stubbornly absolutely totally refuse to take the phenomenally beautiful train you must inevitably endure a highly deeply heavily deeply frustrating grueling completely utterly exhausting fragmented journey. You must first catch a bus to Nuwara Eliya then physically aggressively completely navigate the highly chaotic busy central bus stand there to successfully locate a highly specific completely tiny rural incredibly bumpy crowded local feeder bus to finally drop you in Ambewela.
Scam Watch: colombo
Driver claims the meter is broken and quotes an inflated flat rate. Common on arrival at airport or railway stations when tourists are tired and disoriented.
Drivers wearing official-looking uniforms claim to be "government-approved" and charge 3-5x normal rates. They may have fake badges or ID cards.
Women with babies approach asking you to buy milk powder at a nearby shop (not cash). The shop is run by accomplices and charges 5-10x normal price.
