This day tour combines the tea-covered hills of Nuwara Eliya, known in colonial times as “Little England,” with the relaxed charm of Ella further down the valley. Highlights include a visit to a working tea estate and factory, a walk around Gregory Lake, and, time permitting, the iconic Nine Arch Bridge. Expect cooler temperatures throughout, so pack a light jacket. The tour moves at a moderate pace with several stops.
Best starting point: Nuwara Eliya or Ella
