Our Story
NextBus.lk was born from a simple frustration: finding reliable bus information in Sri Lanka was nearly impossible. As frequent travelers ourselves, we experienced firsthand the challenges of navigating Sri Lanka's complex bus network without accurate timetables, route information, or travel guidance.
What started as a personal project to track our own journeys has evolved into Sri Lanka's most comprehensive bus travel resource. We've built a platform that combines real-time data, community contributions, and local expertise to make bus travel accessible to everyone - from first-time visitors to seasoned locals.
Today, NextBus.lk serves thousands of travelers every month, providing accurate route information, travel guides, and practical tips that help people explore Sri Lanka safely and efficiently.
