Trying to save a hotel night. Is the night board to Minneriya normal or a wrecked arrival?

Night to Minneriya: pin, live driver, written fare if it is a tuk. Prebooked cars are a hotel product. I will not invent a night timetable.

PickMe from CMB was ordinary. We did not bargain on the kerb. That was the whole trick.

If you are tired, stay near the bus stand or town centre in Minneriya and skip the extra viewpoint. Pull cash in Colombo, Kandy, or Galle first. Cards are a maybe, not a plan.
