Colombo's city hotels cluster in Fort, Colombo 1 to 3 and Colombo 7. The airport is roughly 35 km north, and the Colombo–Katunayake Expressway covers most of that in about 45 minutes outside rush hour.
We drop door-to-door at any address in the city, including the harbour-front towers, Galle Face, Kollupitiya and the residential streets of Cinnamon Gardens.

How the transfer works
Expressway the whole way to the city edge, then local roads to the hotel. City traffic between 7–9am and 4–7pm is the only thing that stretches the drive.
A car handles two large suitcases. Beyond that take a van — there is no room to rearrange bags on an expressway run.
