Enjoy an unforgettable full-day tuk-tuk adventure through the scenic heart of Sri Lanka’s Central Highlands, starting from Ella or Haputale. This immersive countryside experience blends nature, culture, and agriculture, offering a genuine insight into rural life while travelling in a fun and authentic local way.

After being picked up from your hotel, set off by tuk tuk towards the low-lying hills of the Central Highlands, passing through charming villages, winding country roads, and lush green landscapes. Along the way, visit tea plantations where neatly trimmed bushes blanket the hillsides, as well as rubber, cocoa, and black pepper plantations. Learn how these important crops are grown and harvested, and discover why Sri Lankan black pepper is famous worldwide for its rich aroma and superior quality.

Pause at breathtaking viewpoints such as Pilkington Point and Millennium Point, where rolling tea-covered hills stretch endlessly towards the horizon. From Millennium Point, keep an eye out for wild boars or even elephants that occasionally roam the surrounding forests, adding an exciting touch of wildlife to the journey.

The highlight of the day is a visit to the spectacular Diyaluma Falls, Sri Lanka’s second-highest waterfall, plunging an impressive 220 metres. Explore the upper falls via gentle nature trails, hop from one natural rock pool to another, and enjoy sweeping panoramic views of the surrounding valleys. Take time to enjoy a wonderful swim in these pristine natural pools, surrounded by unspoiled beauty, and watch as the upper cascades dramatically join the lower falls.

During the tour, relax and enjoy a delightful picnic lunch at a scenic spot, breathing in the fresh mountain air and soaking up the peaceful atmosphere. As the day continues, travel along quiet countryside roads, experiencing the calm rhythm of rural Sri Lankan life.

On the return journey, stop at the iconic Ravana Falls, another stunning waterfall closely linked to ancient legends and local folklore. After a day filled with adventure, learning, and natural beauty, return comfortably by tuk tuk to your hotel in Ella or Haputale, carrying lasting memories of Sri Lanka’s magnificent highland countryside.
