“Geweldige dag gehad! Onze gids was Michael die ons van alles vertelde over de omgeving en de plekken waar we kwamen, en over Sri Lanka in het algemeen. Hij weet ook alle mooie plekjes te vinden en er was genoeg ruimte voor fotomomentjes. Op de heenweg gingen we o.a. naar Ramboda Falls, het was de inspanning van de klim ruimschoots waard. Wat is het daar mooi! In Nuwara Eliya bezochten we de postoffice, deden een toertje rond het meer en gingen we lunchen en nog een beetje rondlopen.

Spend up to eight hours traveling from Kandy to cool, colonial Nuwara Eliya by private tuk tuk. Visit a tea factory, see plantations, Victoria Park, Lake Gregory, Ramboda View Point, and more. Your English-speaking driver handles pickup, but confirm which stops and entrance fees are included.

“Totaal niet wat ze beloven! Ze zeggen dat je naar de volgende plaatsen gaat: golfclub, de renbaan en het Victoria park. Nou we hebben de golfclub en het park 3 seconden gezien toen we snel langs reden. We konden niet eens foto’s maken. De huizen in Tudor-stijl hebben we niet gezien of überhaupt iets over gehoord laat staan van de geschiedenis van deze mooie plaats. Als laatste beloven ze dat je mensen van dichtbij theebladeren kan zien plukken, ook niks van gezien. Volgens de beschrijving duurt dit 8u wij waren na 3u klaar en werden weer afgezet. Zo zonde…”
