Sri Lanka · ADAM'S PEAK HIKES
Some of these start at two in the morning for a sunrise above the cloud, others are a gentle hour out of Ella town. The 8 below say plainly which is which, what it costs and how much climbing is involved.
Review of Ella’s six-hour tuk-tuk tour to Nine Arches Bridge, Little Adam’s Peak, Ravana and quiet waterfalls, with practical tips and value advice.
“Amazing trip! Our guide Jagen was so kind and helpful. He explained things very well and made sure we had the best possible experience. Sights were great especially loved the secret waterfall! 10/10 experience would recommend.”

“Rosemary was so friendly and great to spend the day with around Ella. He took us to his preferred rice and curry spot which we loved and barely broke a sweat when leading us up Ella Rock.”
Hike Ella Rock, Nine Arches Bridge, and Little Adam’s Peak with a local guide, tuk-tuk transfers, lunch, tea-country views, and flexible cancellation.
“It was a wonderful trip with our guide Dino. He is a very good guide and explained many things. He had a lot of surprises for us along the road. He showed us many birds and plants which we would not have seen doing this alone. He served special tea, we hiked hidden paths, a short ride on the railroad and a good lunch.”
Hike Little Adam’s Peak, visit Nine Arch Bridge, and explore Ella’s tea country with a local guide, tuk tuk transfers, and water included.
“I had such an excellent time hiking Little Adam's Peak and seeing the Nine Arch Bridge and train passing. The hike is manageable/easy but you will be tired when going up the stairs but that doesn't last too long (plus you can always take a minute to catch your breath)! My guide, Pubba was so friendly and helpful - with photos and to walk on some uneven ground. He also provided me some interesting information at each stop. He was on time too and a safe driver. Snacks and water provided.”
Hike Little Adam's Peak, see trains cross Nine Arches Bridge, and tour a tea factory on a six-hour private tuk-tuk trip from Ella.
“This was advertised as a guided tour, but in reality it felt like a poorly organized taxi ride with commission stop. The “guide” spoke very limited English and provided no real explanations. There was no guiding—just driving. Key parts of the itinerary were clearly not planned. We were first taken to a tea shop and told the tea factory was “closed.” Only after we complained and insisted did the guide suddenly arrange a factory visit, which felt improvised and not part of the original plan. Interestingly, I noticed other reviews mentioning the exact same “factory closed” story, which makes the tour description feel misleading. The program did not follow what…”
Review of the private Adams Peak night hike from Kandy, with guide support, sunrise views, transport, breakfast, costs, and practical tips.
“The experience was excellent from start to finish. The driver, Ahamed, provided a safe and smooth transfer, was punctual, and very attentive to my needs. The guide, Priyantha, was knowledgeable and shared interesting facts about the places we visited. He was especially helpful in finding the best spots to watch the sunrise. While the activity is a bit physically challenging, it is absolutely worth the effort. I highly recommend this tour!”
See Ella by tuk-tuk, with Little Adam’s Peak, Nine Arch Bridge, Ravana Falls, and Halpewatte Tea Factory in one flexible tour.
“Perfect day trip. We already saw the falls so asked to go to the new temple instead. Our guide 'Ajith' said no problem. He even bought us water and bananas for the journey. Book this tour and ask for Ajith.”
