Day 5Overnight stay in Nuwara Eliya Meal plan – Half Board basis

Rise and shine! The breakfast is laid out for you, enjoy and then we make the fun and long journey to the misty mountains.

To offer you the best experience we wish to take you by the train on this journey. Though slower it is a highly scenic ride where the train climbs around the mountains, creeps through the dark tunnels and travels along the lush green carpets of the tea plantations. So make sure your camera is ready to click on the beautiful scenery you pass by.

However we want you to understand that there are only a limited number of seats available for reservations, and requires manual booking procedures currently. Therefore we offer this train ride only on availability and in the unfortunate event a seat cannot be reserved (we will always do our utmost) we will take you by vehicle on road ensuring you have a pleasant ride as well.

Still if you wish to travel in the train without confirmed seats along with the local crowd we can provide the same for you even for a shorter duration journey to have the rail experience.

Ceylon Tea, a produce introduced to Sri Lanka by the British is now a refreshing drink enjoyed by every local ranging from a laborer to a millionaire! You will also have the opportunity to visit a tea plantation and a factory to enjoy your time and also learn about its production process.

Arriving in Nuwara Eliya check-in to the hotel. And after let’s head out to explore this colonial town.

Known as ‘Little England’ the town lives up to its nickname offering a picture of a British suburb village. You will see the little cottages on the hills, colonial hotels and the racecourse etc. which have been erected during the British rule which stands proud to this day.

As the evening gets cold head back to the hotel and enjoy the warmth of the hotel.

However we want you to understand this is a national park where wildlife freely roam so no viewing of animals is guaranteed.

But as you know fortune favors the bold!

After head back to the hotel and spend some time at leisure after the long journey and the exciting game drive made.

Day 07

Sadly, we are at the final day of the tour! Enjoy the breakfast laid for you before we cruise through the south coast and drop you off at the end.

But wait there is still more to see!

Witness the uncommon practice of fishing on a stick! This is no ordinary fishing technique, there might be several methods of catching a fish but this one is mind-boggling. Fishermen in Sri Lanka use stilts to catch a fish. Stilt Fishing is an old tradition practiced by fishing families in southwestern-most Sri Lanka.

And then head in to the Galle Dutch fort, a world heritage site. Marvel in the massive stone fort which the history roots run deep to the period of the sixteenth century AD and then has come to its present structure by the developments made by the Portuguese, Dutch and the British. You can head up to the rampart and walk along gazing at the clear blue Indian Ocean, and this is an ideal photo location as well! And your guide will enlighten you on the interesting details as you walk along the narrow streets of the fort.

Last but not least you will visit a turtle hatchery! This wonderful marine species have found ideal conditions for laying eggs in certain areas of the south coast. Responsible groups have come into action and through these turtle hatcheries ensure majority of the turtle hatchlings sees the light of day.

You have now reached the end of this round tour program and what remains is to transfer you to the selected beach resort in the south coast or to the airport for the departure back home.
