Verified traveler reviews for Unveiling Sri Lanka's Cultural Treasures: A 5-Day Journey.
“Amazing trip to Nuwaraeliya”
Our family of four took a trip from Negombo into the Sri Lankan mountains, spending two days based in and around the town of Nuwara Eliya. Hansidu, our guide/ driver, had an excellent knowledge of key places to visit on the way - we stopped at the Spice Garden, the Moonstone Mine and visited a Tea Plantation with a Safari. In Nuwara Eliya, we stayed at the beautiful Jetwing St Andrews Hotel and gardens. We took a Tuk Tuk tour, walked to a waterfall and also visited Ella's 9 arch bridge and climbed Little Adam's Peak. What a fantastic experience!
