1.Nuwara Eliya Tuk-Tuk Tour Tea Picking,Tasting &Ramboda Falls

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 207 reviews · 4.5 hours · from $46Our pick

Review of Nuwara Eliya’s private tuk-tuk tour, with tea picking, factory tastings, Ramboda Falls, viewpoints, and practical booking tips.

“Our tour was excellent from start to end. Our tour guide Sathis was punctual picking us up from the hotel and was very courteous and informative during the tour. Tea plantation tours (two of them) were really good. One produced tea manually and the other was a bit more automated separating the leaves. We also met the owner of the tour (Krishna) at one of the plantations who introduced himself. Nice chap 👍 Sathis stopped at many viewing points to take photos and we climbed up (approx 700 steps) to the Rambodde Waterfall. Great experience. All in all a great day 5* 😀”

“This was such a good tour. Saravanan is a great guide. He was very friendly and informative. He picked us up from our accommodation, made the day very easy bringing us to all the locations and answered all our questions. He added the post office as a stop when he asked. His tuk tuk has a long Bluetooth speaker and a charger which came in handy. Couldn’t recommend this tour enough.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 15 reviews · 8 hours · from $46

Review of a Colombo or Negombo day trip to Pinnawala, Kandy, and a tea factory, with temple visits, views, shopping, costs, and practical tips.

“We did a full-day tour with Janaka and it was absolutely amazing. He was incredibly accommodating and flexible, allowing us to tailor the tour to exactly what we wanted. We managed to see so much in just one day, visiting elephants at the elephant orphanage, exploring a tea plantation (which was a real highlight), and hiking Sigiriya Rock, which was unforgettable. I would highly recommend Janaka as a guide in Sri Lanka. He is knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely goes out of his way to make sure you have a great experience. We had a fantastic day!”
