• 5Tea and Transfer Kandy to Nuwara Eliya

  We had a fantastic trip from Kandy to Nuwara Eliya with Milan. He was friendly, reliable and made the whole day really easy and enjoyable. Along the way, he took us to Majesty Tea Plantation, Ramboda Waterfall, a beautiful viewpoint and stopped at a great restaurant for lunch. The trip was completely customisable and never felt rushed. Milan was happy to adjust the day to suit what we wanted to see. Highly recommend Milan for anyone looking for a comfortable and flexible way to travel from Kandy to Nuwara Eliya!

• 5Kandy day tour

  I've booked this day tour via Agoda, Sam is our guide for the day, he speaks very good English and explained every detail very well. Our trip started at 8am and we departed to Nuwara Eliya and did some necessary stop. Sam is sensitive with our needs and understands what we wish to see and do. Highly recommend English guide!

• 5Perfect vacation and amazing service

  Thank you 7b Holidays Sri Lanka for a dream vacation. Everything was handled perfectly from day one. We especially loved our time in Nuwara Eliya—the misty hills, fresh air, and beautiful landscapes were unforgettable. Our driver was punctual, friendly, and always knew the best spots for photos and local food. If you are planning a trip to Sri Lanka, look no further than this company!

  This experience was very very nice! From Kandy to Nuwara Eliya we have seen amazing places in between tea plantations, forest and multiples towns on the road. Nuwara Eliya is a jewel into the wild nature even if we have visited it during a rainy day 🥲 Anyway, I would do it again and again! Sam, the driver, was great: very nice, smart, precise and professional! The car was very comfortable, clean and brand new also. Must do!

About Kandy

Kandy is the hill-country city of Sri Lanka, home to the Temple of the Tooth, a tree-fringed lake and a botanical garden among tea-covered hills.

Kandy was the last capital of the Sinhalese kings until the British took it in 1815. It stands around an artificial lake, about 500 metres above sea level, in the Central Highlands. The Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, a UNESCO site, holds a relic said to be a tooth of the Buddha, and pilgrims bring lotus flowers each day. Drummers and dancers perform at the shrine's rituals.

Top-ranked sights in Kandy: Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic (Sri Dalada Maligawa), Alagalla Mountain Range.
