Tea Country Escape
A condensed escape into the highlands for travellers extending a beach or cultural stay.
Five days for the absolute essence of Sri Lanka's hill country — a stay at five-star accommodation, the scenic train to Ella and one of the country's iconic photo stops at the Nine Arch Bridge. Ideal as an extension to a south coast or cultural journey.
You travel with a private driver throughout, walk a working estate with the resident tea-maker, and end with a quiet stay at Ella's most considered boutique hotel.
