Don't worry, they have already learned Russian there too, go outside the hotel, and any tuk-tuk will take you to any excursion. Bargain. We went to the largest Buddha temple, and to the Rain forest. Excursions there are all very tiring. there is no normal transport and normal roads.

guide from the hotel - navryatli. the Sri Lankans have a private business, they learn Russian with varying degrees of success and offer their services everywhere. I think there will be a choice. it will be possible and necessary to bargain and recruit a company from "ours". almost all excursions (except for the turtle farm, which are everywhere and nearby) can be tiring and long to varying degrees, because the roads inland are really terrible, in addition - the speed of movement is very, very (!!!) low also because of the large number of different vehicles and one lane in each direction. I liked the Buddha temple, and the Kandy Botanical Garden too. but now I realized that I just had to find a taxi driver myself and for the same money he would have driven us ourselves, without a big slow company (it’s better to decide where to go at home in order to understand the distances and plan the route yourself). Then we were smarter: we already went to Colombo ourselves with a taxi driver.

if the trip is long - do not take a tuk-tuk. inconveniently, all the exhaust gases from the terrible old buses - will be in the nose. and also humidity, heat ... and also shaking, you need to hold on tight. and also a white person attracts a lot of attention from both children and adults, it tires in a few days. so it's better in every way - an air-conditioned taxi. and bargain always.
