“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* 😀”

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…”

“The train journey was fantastic, we had a fabulous time! The whole experience booking with Viator however was disgusting......we booked & prepaid for our 4 x 1st class tickets 3 weeks before we even travelled, just for them to cancel our tickets in the early hours on the morning of travel!! No time to plan when you're travelling with a family of 4 & luggage. Thankfully we had help with local tour guides.. .”
