3 DAYS TEA & TRUMPETS
Colombo-Pinnawela-Kandy-Nuwara Eliya-Kitulgala-Colombo
Day 1: Colombo - Pinnawela
Depart for Kandy and en-route visit the Pinnawela Elephant Orphanage, the only one of its kind in the world. There are about 40 animals residing here presently ranging from the ages of a few months to several adults who act as foster parents to the young ones. Arrive in time for Lunch and then visit the Kandy market square, the arts & crafts centre, the Kandy lake and Upper Lake Drive.
Day 2: Pinnawela - Kandy
Breakfast at the hotel and continue to Nuwara Eliya. Arrive in Nuwara Eliya - land of tea-laden hillsides, gurgling waterfalls, stirring mountains and clear hill-country air. Here, in temperatures akin to a beautiful English summer’s day, is wonderful walking country, a chance to experience Sri Lankan scenery at its finest. Spend the morning seeing how Ceylon tea is made and learn the art of becoming a discerning tea taster. The climate is cool during the day and at night is compared with the European winter temperature
Day 3: Kandy
Wind past misty mountain peaks and cascading waterfalls as you drive back to Colombo, via Kithulgala where the Bridge over River Kwai was filmed!
