10 days total. Driver seems expensive but convenient. Train cheaper but more hassle? What do most do?

For first time, driver is worth it for the Kandy to south leg. Less stress with luggage and you can stop if you want. Train is beautiful but the changes and stations can be tiring if you're new. Many first timers do driver one way, train or bus other way to save. Depends on budget really.

I did train both ways, was okay but driver would have been nicer with my big bag. Your call.

Yeah driver makes it easy. If money is tight, train is fine, just plan the day around it. Both popular.
