One night in Colombo
Hi there,
I just booked a flight from DXB to SIN on EK with an overnight stay in CMB. I will arrive in CMB early evening and depart in the afternoon the following day around 3pm. I'm definitely going to make a separate trip to Sri Lanka in the near future, but would like to be able to at least experience the Colombo area to some degree with the very limited time that I'll have. Any suggestions on cheap accomodations, areas to explore, accessibility from the airport, etc. woudl be greatly appreciated!
