Driving a tuk tuk out of Negombo

An easy first ride straight off a long flight — the roads around town and out to the airport, about 11 km, are manageable, and the tuk tuk's extra room is welcome with bags fresh off a plane.

Waikkal is a similar short distance north, and the longer run to Colombo, roughly 35 km, is comfortable on a tuk tuk if you build in the extra time city-approach traffic tends to add.

When we had a flat tire, they immediately got in their car and brought us an extra spare wheel. Before we hit the road, we were given a thorough driving lesson.

Pickup in Negombo

Negombo is up on the west coast, a long way from our Galle base, but being just 11 km from Katunayake Airport, we regularly arrange pickup and drop-off right at the terminal — message us your dates and flight details.

The paperwork you’ll need

Only the AAC permit covers a tuk tuk — the DMT permit does not cover three-wheelers. We handle the AAC paperwork before you arrive.

Questions about tuk tuk rental in Negombo

Can you deliver a tuk tuk to Katunayake Airport?
Yes. Negombo is the closest town to the airport, so this is one of our most common pickup points — message us your flight details and we'll arrange the timing.
Can I fit more than two people and luggage?
Yes — that's the tuk tuk's advantage over a scooter or motorbike, especially useful straight off a flight with bags.
Can I return the tuk tuk somewhere other than Negombo?
Yes. Plenty of guests ride down to Galle or the south coast and we collect at the other end. Tell us your plans.
