Are taxis in Sri Lanka air-conditioned?

Yes, almost all private cars, official airport taxis, and modern passenger vans booked for tourists in Sri Lanka are fully air-conditioned.

Because Sri Lanka has a humid tropical climate, air conditioning has become a standard expectation for private car travel. If you book via the official airport counter, a ride-hailing app, or a dedicated private driver service, the vehicle is generally equipped with a working A/C. The main exceptions to normal travel are open-air tuk-tuks, local public buses, and second- or third-class train carriages.
