I'll be spending a week in Sri lanka at the end of May.
I want to spend most of my time in the Cultural triangle area(Kandy,Anuradhapura,Polonnaruwa,Ella). I'm hoping to go from CMB straight to either Kandy or Anuradhapura (I arrive CMB at 11:50am). Taking advantage of the Hilton January sale and staying at the Hilton Colombo my last night.
If anyone has recommendations for places to stay in the area, experience with hiring a car & driver, I'd love to hear from you.
Also, if you took anti-malaria medication, what did you take?
Thanks

How is the weather in Sri Lanka in late May?
Very seriously considering a visit in late May next year, likely to places on the south coast, including Galle. I know it's supposed to be during the rainy season. What exactly does that mean?
For those not following it, the 30-year civil war in Sri Lanka apparently ended earlier this year. The reconciliation process is supposedly underway.
