Drivers keep quoting very high flat rates. Should we always ask for the meter.

A fair strictly regulated metered rate in Colombo is generally around 100 to 120 Sri Lankan Rupees for the first kilometer and slightly less for every kilometer after that.

The absolute smartest completely stress free method is to use the PickMe or Uber smartphone apps. These apps algorithmically lock in a highly fair transparent local price completely eliminating the need to argue over cash.

You must absolutely unequivocally insist that they turn the physical meter on before you step inside the vehicle. If the driver claims the meter is broken firmly refuse the ride and simply hail another tuk tuk.
