Colombo to Weligama by Bus
In the past we would recommend you get a transfer or the train because the bus can take 5 hours from Colombo Bastian Mawatha Bus Station. However it is worth looking into if you could still be waiting around for a train connection in Ratmalana. Not so easy with boards on a bus, train and mini van are much easier, especially if you are headding to Weligama – Midigama area.
