Your journey begins with pickup from your accommodation in Kandy. The first stop is the Ambuluwawa Biodiversity Complex, a peaceful mountaintop site with a striking spiral tower. Visitors can climb to the top of the tower for panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes. Please note that a tuk-tuk ride is required from the parking area to the tower base (approximately $4.97 per ride), and the tower entry ticket is approximately $6.60 per person. These prices are approximate and may vary depending on the exchange rate. Entry fees are not included and must be paid locally.

Continue the scenic drive through central Sri Lanka’s mountainous terrain, passing tea plantations and winding roads, including the region’s iconic tunnel routes. Pause at Ramboda Falls, one of the tallest and most impressive waterfalls in the country. Here, guests can enjoy fresh mountain air, stretch their legs, and take photos at a relaxing pace.

Next, visit a working Ceylon tea factory. Learn about the tea production process and observe how the island’s most famous export is carefully processed. Entry to the tea factory is free and includes a guided tour with tasting.

Breakfast is provided during the journey and can be enjoyed at a clean, scenic stop along the way. The meal includes local Sri Lankan options, with vegetarian dishes available. If you have dietary preferences or restrictions, inform your driver at the start of the trip.

As you approach Nuwara Eliya—often called “Little England” due to its colonial charm and cool climate—you will visit the Nuwara Eliya Viewpoint for sweeping views of the town and surrounding hills. Also included is a visit to the famous Old Post Office, a red-brick colonial building that remains one of the most photographed sites in the region.

Conclude your experience at the bustling Nuwara Eliya vegetable market, a lively and colorful space where you can observe daily life and local produce in the highlands.
