Landed 30 mins ago. Random drivers outside quoting crazy prices. Should I go to the official counter or prebooked is better? First time, a bit overwhelmed with bags.

Accepted Answer

Official counter inside is safer and fixed price. Around 12-14k to Galle area for AC car. The guys outside always overcharge new arrivals. If you have time, counter is fine. Prebooked is best but too late now.

We used the counter last month, smooth and fair price. Better than risking outside.

Yeah go to the counter inside. Don't take the first offers outside, they know you're new and tired. Counter is regulated.
