A great outing to do - we made this outing really a beautiful day for us the driver came to pick us up at the hotel in kandy he took us to see one of the largest and oldest tea factories with a guided tour taking the paths different points of views, the tea fields which cover the mountain, we passed by Lake St George. The driver dropped us off at the station to take the train, making sure everything was in order for our train journey, then accompanied us to the platform and finally picked us up at Ella station for transfer to our hotel in Ella. thanks again to our driver the only downside is the tripadvisor description it's not clearly to my taste well explained that only one ticket is included but you have to pay in addition for the other 2 when there are 3 of you. fortunately there The agency that manages it in the country is patient and very professional so we kept our reservation and we have no regrets. the price is fair, the total corresponds to the same service on competing sites. valerie

Fantastic experience - The trip was very well arranged, we were promptly picked up from our AirBnB in Kandy and driven to Nuwara Eliya. The train ride from Nanu Oya to Ella was fantastic. Very kind and overall a fantastic experience. Would recommend anyone to do this

Great trip - Holiday Walkers Sri Lanka took care of the train tickets. They picked us up at our hotel and dropped us at the correct track. Train ride was just magnificent! In Nuwara eliya, Sanjaya from Holiday Walkers Sri Lanka greeted us and guided us around Nuwara eliya, he showed us the post office and other sites and then took us to the beautiful Nine Arche Bridge which isn‘t that easy to find. Sanjaya even helped us in bargaining for the price of tuk tuk for the nine arch bridge. All around very friendly, forthcoming and well organised. Great day and highly recommended!

Great Trip - It was really good trip. The guide (Sanjay) made me feel safe and comfortable the whole time. I appreciate how the organizer went the extra mile to get me the train ticket as they were sold out. It is a "must do" trip.
