Hi Travis! I am the boy whom you met in Embilipitiya ( 2:37 ). It was a nice experience for me to test my english with a foreigner. And you were so nice to me. You were very friendly. When I was going to leave, you gave me thousand rupees. But I said "NO". Because, If you guys start to give money to someone who is not in need, they would get used to it. And then, if they see a foreigner again somewhere, those would see foreigners as a source of free money and beg for money. That could give the foreigners bad experiences. You are coming to Sri Lanka to enjoy. So just enjoy. I know you guys are very kind and generous. I appreciate it. But I think There's NO NEED to give money for free without getting any service. That's my opinion. Anyway, I wish you all the best brother! Thanks for visiting Sri Lanka! Your visit is a big support us! You earned a new subscriber to your channel. Loved your video❤️ I love when you say "Sthuthi machan"!😁
sorry for the inconvenience you had to face in SL travis.. hope u will throw away bad experience but save the lesson... wish you, World Nomac, Ali and all travellers health and wealth to continue enjoying this wonderful world.. 🤗
Sri Lankan people are going through a lot of economic and physical hardship due to mismanagement and are suffering. Sorry for the inconveniences you are facing. Hope to see you guys come back to beautiful Sri Lanka again. We enjoy all the videos. From all the team members. Have a Lion and chill. Cheers mate.
Hey man dont leave sri lanka untill 14th april. Sri lanka is going to celebrate the New Year after 2 long years..... You will never going to get this opportunity ...
I like Sri lanka and I like the people there, I have one good friend he is from sri lanka, all Sri lankians that I met, they were everytime very very friendly and sympatic, I love that man, they have positive vibes
Almost on tears after hearing foreigners say this is the most beautiful country they've ever been to, but people here right now facing a huge economic crisis. A beautiful country which is being ruined by politicians. 😔
Travis, in most private buses you will be able to see in the windows the places that bus stops.And it is always better to ask different people if you feel like you're not sure about anything. Because even the locals get scammed by the locals... Oh lord and thanks for that clip of the bus drivers fighting..you took me back into the days..😂😂😂 See you soon in Ausi..Stay safe and enjoy ❤️
Thank you so much for coming to Sri Lanka.😊 You guys are way more worthy to my country than our politicians. So travel safe and enjoy your time here in Sri Lanka and also please come back one day. ☺️
Wow how unprofessional of that driver. So sorry you had to see this Travis. 😔 Your look is priceless though. Can't get enough of how patient you are. Love your attitude. Stay safe Travis. 🙏
The waterfall you show on the way is "Ravana Falls". The communication barrier at bust stations is really disappointing. Hope you will enjoy it at Ella.
3.40 how lucky you are my grany will never let me sit like that even at home 🤦♀️, your expression during the fight 😂😂 I used to experience this everyday during my college day, thanks for bringing back the memories ❤🇱🇰. Much love machan
Misinformation at public bus stations in certain foreign countries can be very frustrating. Sadly language barrier issues are a big cause as is the lack of clear signage. These are frustrating parts of travel yet you always remain calm and respectful to the drivers and locals Trav. I hope you will meet up with your new friends Mac Harry Ali and others in another country in the future again.?? Meanwhile stay safe Trav. Enjoy the rest of your SRI LANKA adventures nephew.
@@travisfein I think so. Only few times I took the buses. Mostly using tuk tuk, uber and Kangaroo taxi services. I really enjoyed their driving skills. As I live in Toronto, if you go over your speed limit, even 10 kmh you get in trouble. Big fine and loose points.
@@travisfein Yes. Only the maroon red color buses with the government symbol are government buses. All other buses are private. But, there are some good bus drivers with discipline, while most of them are crazy bus drivers.🙄
You just missed the SLTB bus from Thanamalwila to Ella which come to Thanamalwila bus stand around 12.10pm. That is Ambalangoda 31 Nuwara Eliya bus service operated by Ambalangoda & Elpitiya depots.
It is good that you didn't fall for their lies. A few such people around damage the image of our country. They are the exception than the rule. Hope you'd enjoy the rest of your stay in Sri Lanka. Hopefully you'd be reunited with your great pals soon in another country.
There is only one direct bus operating from Embilipitiya Central Bus Stand to Ella. That is Embilipitiya 97 Badulla from Thanamalwila depot. Departure time is 7.10am. Sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Lol! You should know that we Sri Lankans are very privileged to get bus rides that also double up as roller-coaster rides, that added little thriller of risking life gives you the much seeked adrenaline rush from adventure sports. 😂
Misinformation at the bus stations isn't only happening to foreigners. We face it too as locals. I'm so sorry you had to go through it. They just lie to us without any remorse. And there are always fights between government busses and private busses. And even among private busses. I was at the same bus station more than a decade ago with my family. We faced a huge delay and the bus driver and the conductor tried to drop us at the wrong bus stop at Ella because we questioned the delay. A kind lady informed us it was not the right stop otherwise we would miss our train journey from Ella. We saved our train ride just by a few minutes. I have no words to express my anger towards these lunatics.
7:26 🤣🤣🤣 private buses always try to compete with government buses also they compete their fellow drivers to get more passengers. Free entertainment ehh... 🤣🤣
Hi Travis, so sorry for every bad experiences you faced in our country . Please don't get lost though . Please forgive if our people were too harsh on you. Have only good memories . Wish you a safe trip and god bless you. 🙏🥰 It was nice to hear you thanking each and everyone who helped you in our language . Bohoma isthuthi . 🙏
Many foreigners do not come to Sri Jayewardenepura Kotte, the capital of the country sri lanka , to visit the parks in and around the area (Diyatha Uyana).
Regret to see your bad experience with transportation chaos.. at the end video, I felt that you are seemed very tired and sleepless all the way journey.... Have a good luck to continue the best things in next episode...
HEllo there, wanna explain something, The Allla town named because of the water fall you saw down the road, in Sinhalese we calle the waterfall known as " Alla" , ;) Cheers !
Brother sorry for inconvenience happen while travelling in my country throw way bad experience and you arrival is very valuable for my country this days have good jurney
Finally you arrived at Ella! Sorry for the trouble... You are good trawler. I wish you would stay a long time in sri lanka. Don't forget that we too are experiencing your journey....
Hello Travis Fein. I'm From Sril Lanka. So, I apologize on behalf of Sri Lanka for the inconvenience casused to you during your visit to Sri Lanka. So Good Luck with your trip. I wish You Friend.
Don't worry bus fights like that are common. Front seats are normaly reserved for special people but you can sit. And never try to go on footboard in a bus as it's not safe. Waiting to see some drone footages from those waterfalls in the future
@@travisfein Most of the time there are labels on the side saying like Reserved for Clergy, Reserved for pregnant women etc. We usually stand up and give them specially if it's the on of the front seats. No problem as you're a tourist. But it'll be more respectful to do so
Hi Travfein ,, Thank you for this video 📸 Very nice 👍 In future please explain what you looking particular place and historical history what you studied that place You can grow up Thank you ❤️👍📸
Sri Lankan bus service is not like European bus services and lot of uneducated bus drivers are here, it proofs on 7:15 the bus driver fights with bad words with the government bus driver and 10:12 making horn prohibited by the police, here only few but lot of bad incidents happening on the road. However very happy about experiences which you are feeling in Sri Lanka. Wish you a strong future.
It’s a shame that srilankan government won’t take any action against these ruthless bus drivers it’ll destroy the image of the country any way have a safe journey cheers .🍻
Hey Travis, why did you private the exposé video you did on Pinnawala Elephant Sanctuary? That video of yours exposed the fraud behind a major tourist establishment, I hope somebody didn't threaten you to take it down.
You're lucky. When my friend sister took a bus to Kandy. Their bus had overtaken by another bus and some thugs came. They hit on the glass windows of the bus by using sticks and smashed the whole bus.😂😂 so they're pretty normal. My mom also experienced that
You did the correct thing. Always ask from the information desk when you are traveling from busses.. Hey Travis, If you are traveling arround Haputhale or Bandarawela please put a message. I like to meet you and show around.❤️😍 Safe and happy travel in Sri Lanka...

Pleae always ask/ inquire about prices... specially when you travel around tuks and busses.. have seen many being ripped off nowadays.. be vigilante
Agreed
@@travisfein Use 'Pickme' or 'Uber' apps to find a tuk tuk.App calculates the price for the distance so the drivers can't cheat you 🤙❤️

If I'm not mistaken, blue buses are private and red belongs to the government. I stayed in SL for almost 3 months.
Are the plain blue ones also private?

Don't leave sri lanka until April 14. Because April is the new year month. Lot of things happens in April. Good content.
I wish I could be here but I won’t be here in April :(
It is good that you didn't fall for their lies. A few such people around damage the image of our country.
They are the exception than the rule.
Hope you'd enjoy the rest of your stay in Sri Lanka.
Hopefully you'd be reunited with your great pals soon in another country.
7:04 what the😹 sri lankan bus drivers are awesome😂❤️🔥
