Review of reserved Kandy to Ella train tickets, covering scenery, seat classes, delivery, timing, price, risks, and practical booking advice.
“So much mark up. Yes we got first class reserved tickets but the cost was 5000 rupees and we paid the equivalent of 27,000 rupees. Talk about mark up Viator, bet the local provider was only paid a fraction of the total as mark up and the rest went to viator. Won't be using this site for any other tickets ever again. Had to chase the local provider for tickets right up until the night before after booking a month in advance. Buy in person at the station instead.”

I had to pay another 10 usd "minimum" to get a guide at Sigiriya, for the cave temple and Hindu temple I had zero information, the other tourists around me all were getting information from their guides I was jealous. The profile on viator should more accurately reflect that a guide is not included.”

The trip is a long day but there's lots to see and do, we left 8am and returned around 8pm so don't plan anything after. Mr Irfan talked about various as we drove past which was very interesting, and also offered a few extra stops with things to do, in addition to slowing down so we could take pictures. He seemed really proud to be able to show off the country. Although the driving may seem a bit crazy in Sri Lanka Mr Irfan was a good driver and kept us safe on the…”
