Sri Lanka with a baby - good idea?

Hi there,

We are thinking about going to Sri Lanka with our nine month old baby. We have the offer of a house near Galle but I am concerned about medical care (in case of emergency), immunizations required, general safety etc etc.

Any other hints and tips from on people who have been there with a baby.

Thanks

Catriona

I have been to Sri Lanka with my one year old baby. I visited kandy , Galle and Colombo.
I would suggest you take some precautions before you go there. Its not a bad place though friendly people and there are quite a few good hospitals in Colombo, do not rely on government hospitals.
Sometimes the road and the environment can be polluted so be careful.

Good Luck
