Mumbai To Kandy Distance

  • Mumbai to Kandy

    By Air

    7.0 hours

If you are looking for the best possible way in regards to how to reach Kandy from Mumbai, then you must opt for airways.

There are no direct Mumbai to Kandy flights available as there is no international airport in Kandy. One has to land on the Colombo International Airport, also known as Bandaranaike International Airport, after covering an aerial distance of 1,642 km. It takes around 3 to 7 hours to cover this journey, depending on the service you availed. Airways is the only mode of transportation as there are no roadway, seaway or railway routes from India to Sri Lanka.

After reaching Colombo, Kandy is just 103 kms away from the airport and this distance can be covered by varied means of transport like flight, taxi, bus and train. When in Kandy, pay a visit to its famous tourist places like the serene Kandy Lake, sprawling gardens in Royal Botanical Gardens, and witness the beauty of fauna amidst rainforests. Kandy also possesses sacred Buddhist temples and shrines which provide a sense of relief when visited. These places can be explored easily via intercity express buses, local trains and taxis.

By Air:

To traverse from Mumbai to Kandy, one must take a flight from the well-known Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport in Mumbai. As Mumbai is a metropolitan city and is well-connected via roadways, railways and airways, the airport can be reached easily via train, car or bus. There are numerous flights operating to Colombo like SpiceJet and IndiGo which take approximately 7 hours to cover the distance. Besides this, there are other airlines which provide non-stop services like SriLankan and Air Lines that take only 2.5 hours to reach the destination but with comparatively more price. After reaching the Colombo International Airport, Kandy city is easily accessible and can be reached via air, road or rail. There are intercity trains available which are quite affordable. Otherwise, if you want to save some time then you can book a flight via Cinnamon Air or SriLankan which takes only one hour to reach there.

    Piyush's 6 days trip to Kandy

    Nothing for the hotels, (because it is directly related to the overall trip budget), but the driver was okay kind of. He didn't really suggest anything wherever we went just the itinerary piece he used to stick to. Overall the trip planned by the agent was good.

    Aseem's 6 days trip to Kandy

    They are ok, the driver was not telling himself on what to do and where to go but he was decent and never denied going anywhere wherever we asked. the itinerary could have been better. we missed pinnawala because of it. We paid a premium to this agency but saw no diffference. Could have seleted any other agency which was cheaper.

    Srinivasan's 8 days trip to Kandy

    The service provider Steeple Tours was excellent and they coordinated the trip very well. No challenges during the entire trip. Special mention of the driver and guide who was very helpful. Ready to go anytime as per the plan and guided the entire tour. However, there was NO support from the travel triangle guide starting from the booking till closure. Hardly I had a chance to speak to him. Even during the payment, had to escalate as he was not reachable. The whole experience thru travel triangle was NOT satisfactory.

    Deepak Khandelwal New delhi

    Bhavana's 6 days trip to Kandy

    Travco was good, but there was no point of paying 25k to travel triangle because neither ayush nor any of their teams helped us understand the visa process. We did it on our own. Travel triangle is a simple gateway, we understood but response and connection with customers has reduced and it is a point of concern. Cinnamon bey beruwala waves
