The quicket way ??

Can any forum correspondent with first hand knowledge/experience please comment on this -

What is the quickest way to get from Negombo to Galle, and how long does it take in reality?

I looked at Google Maps, and it suggests about 3 hours; but is that realistic given the amount of traffic?

Thank you,

Marty R (Australia)

Weekends and night time two and half hours
Day time and weekdays with traffic more than three less than four hours,

What is the approx cost of a car/taxi for 2 passengers from airport to Kandy or Galle? Arriving 25 Jan and not sure of itinerary yet, but these 2 destinations are highly likely.

thanks
