One fabulous way of exploring the tea country is to jump aboard the train. With this journey all the way through scenic tea gardens. When you traveling by train you can see St. Clare and Devon waterfalls enroute. The morning railway journey from Kandy to the highlands of Nuwaraeliya, climbing uphill up to 6,000ft above sea level is one of the greatest rail journeys in the world. The dramatic landscape of the highlands stirs the senses – winding past lush tea plantations, majestic peaks and rushing waterfalls. (Train ride in first class can be arranged on availability only). If you like to do this must inform me before at least seven weeks before the travel date to reserve tickets, because it has limited number of seats only.
If you are leaving from Kandy, you can getting to train from Kandy or Peradeniya raiway station, will be picked up from Nanu Oya railway station, 9km away from Nuwaraeliya (little England) by the vehicle with your luggage. Arrive in Nuwara Eliya and check in to the hotel. Your vehicle will travel ahead of you and pick you up from a Nanu Oya railway station and transfer to Nuwaraeliya (little England). Also famous there are more train journeis. Ella - Haputale, Kandy - Hatton etc. All these jounies are in hill country.
To save travel time and make the most of your tour, we suggest continuing directly to Ella instead of staying overnight in Nuwara Eliya.
"We came for a wedding and then embarked on an amazing holiday. Cyril show us magnificent sights and scenery of Sri Lanka. To do the country just we need to return with more time. Many of the sites we visited just made us want to know more about them, even though Cyril was a fountain of knowledge. We have thoroughly enjoyed spending time with Cyril and his excellent company, and it was so nice to go home a guardian angel looking after us. He is consistently courteous & good humored and now fe..." Andy Powell UK

"We are an older couple celebrating a lot of years of marriage (and hiking) in Sri Lanka in February this year, for two weeks, and three days in the Maldives. Although we love to drive, we chose to go with a driver-guide, after planning the trip completely independently. (It turned out he might help us in the planning and selection of hotels, we own). The main advantage is reaching the sites, some of which are tired, refreshed after someone else used to bad roads, with bad signage - If you are i..." Sam
