Itinerary

Day1

Arrival & Relax in Negombo

Arrive at Bandaranaike International Airport (Colombo). Meet your driver and transfer to Negombo or a nearby coastal hotel to recover from your flight. Relax by the beach or explore the local fish market and lagoon. Evening briefing about the journey ahead and overnight stay.

Important: Flight arrival time determines how much you can explore on Day 1.

Day2

Transfer to Kandy — Cultural Evening

After breakfast depart north-east toward Kandy, the cultural heart of Sri Lanka. En route optional stop at Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage (if preferred) or spice gardens. On arrival in Kandy visit the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic and enjoy a traditional cultural dance performance in the evening.

Note: Temple visits require modest dress (shoulders and knees covered).

Day3

Kandy to Nuwara Eliya — Tea Country & Waterfalls

Depart Kandy after breakfast and head into the highlands. Stop at scenic viewpoints and tea plantations. Take a tea plantation tour and tasting to learn about Ceylon tea production and taste fresh brews. Continue to Nuwara Eliya, often called 'Little England', with its colonial architecture, Gregory Lake and lush greenery.

Tip: Carry a light jacket — the highlands can be cool and misty.

Day4

Horton Plains National Park — World's End Trek

Early morning transfer to Horton Plains National Park for a guided trek to World's End and Baker's Falls (approx. 3–4 hours). The plateau's dramatic escarpments and mist-soaked grasslands offer superb photo opportunities. Return to Nuwara Eliya in the afternoon for leisure or a short town walk.

Important: Horton Plains is cold and windy early; wear sturdy shoes and warm layers. Park entry and guide timings are strict — early start recommended.

Day5

Scenic Train to Ella & Little Adam's Peak

Take the scenic train from Nanu Oya / Nuwara Eliya towards Ella (book seats in advance — second-class open windows recommended for photography). Arrive in Ella and trek up Little Adam's Peak for panoramic views of tea terraces and valleys. Later visit the iconic Nine Arch Bridge and capture sunset photographs.

Tip: Train tickets sell out quickly on peak days — we recommend pre-booking.

Day6

Ella Exploration — Ravana Falls & Optional Ella Rock

Morning hike option to Ella Rock (challenging, 3–4 hours) or a more relaxed morning visiting Ravana Falls and local viewpoints. Afternoon options include a village walk, tea tasting or a short cooking class. Enjoy a relaxed evening with mountain vistas and local cuisine.

Note: Choose Ella Rock only if you have comfortable hiking experience.

Day7

Return to Colombo / Departure

After breakfast depart Ella and transfer to Colombo (approx. 5–6 hours by road). En route stop for photographs or short visits if time permits. In Colombo you can opt for a brief city tour (Gangaramaya Temple, Galle Face Green, shopping) before being transferred to the airport for your onward flight.

Important: Ensure your international flight timing allows for the road transfer time. Ask about flight-time based transfer options.
