Mobile Signal & WiFi

Essential Information For Sri Lanka

There are 3G networks across the whole island. Buying a SIM for your mobile phone is easy, as they are readily available and brightly advertised from many outlets, including the airport on arrival. However, if you require a mini SIM for you iPad or tablet, you can only get this from a main office of one of the telephone operators and these are only in the larger cities, specifically Colombo.

Wi-Fi is readily available throughout the island, but reception is not always consistent and some hotels still charge for internet access.

“A wonderful holiday, and we are very happy with the itinerary, accommodation and driver [guide] booked through you. It was all incredibly straight forward and efficient.”
