Absolute perfection! The ultimate romantic day in Ella

If you are looking for the perfect, stress-free way to experience Ella as a couple, this is it. We booked the "Ultimate Ella in a Day: Private Luxury Car Tour" with Guide Dylan, and it was honestly the highlight of our entire trip. The whole day felt incredibly seamless and private. Dylan was so friendly and professional, keeping the drive comfortable while giving us all the time we wanted to explore at our own pace. We never felt rushed once, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and intimate. The itinerary hit all 7 main icons perfectly. We were excited to finish 7 locations in one day. Dylan picked us up early, and hiking up Little Adam's Peak gave us some of the most breathtaking views we've ever seen, and stopping by the refreshing Ravana Waterfall was beautiful. We loved learning the history during the tea factory visit, but the absolute magic was the scenic train ride. Standing together at the famous Nine Arch Bridge and watching the train pass through those lush green hills is a memory we will keep forever. It is an incredibly romantic spot.This tour is the perfect blend of adventure, culture, and luxury. If you want a smooth, unforgettable day together in Ella without the hassle of planning, we cannot recommend Dylan’s team enough!

Great ella experience

We were picked up in tangalle and visited a temple, hiked to a waterfall through beautiful nature, stopped at the ravana ella waterfall, and hiked to the nine arch bridge and little adams peak. Due to the recent weather our itenerary deviated slightly from what was mentioned on the website, but it was a good program. Dylan provided us with a lot of interesting information about the nature, the country, the sightings and the culture. He also took a lot of great pictures of us and made a fun recap video. There was some miscommunication about the trip not automatically being a retour trip, but Dylan was able to arrange a taxi back for us.

Waterfalls, a bridge and a mountain.

I was picked up in Hiriketiya and driven in a Prius to Ella with a terrific driver, Pubudu. We stopped at Secret Falls which was pristine. The Rawana Waterfall which was huge. Then we watched the train pass over the Nine Arches Bridge which was awesome. We then had a delicious Sri Lankan Dahl curry and Rotti lunch. Afterwards we walked it off by climbing Little Adam’s Peak!

excellent day trip

Excellent tour, guided by Dylan. We started off with a hotel pickup at 4:00am. The driver was super friendly, and efficient. At my request Dylan accommodated a trip of the tea estate at Lipton which was a bit off original route but he did so within the agreed upon price For one day and for the distance between Colombo and Ella, the number of activities covered was excellent. The guide was respectful, kind, and very helpful with tips and info. Highly recommended

Would not recommend for solo female traveller

I was picked me up from my hotel in Ella and we visited some amazing less visited parts of Ella. Whilst the places we visited were incredibly beautiful, I did not feel comfortable on this tour due to inappropriate behaviour from the guide. Because of this, I would not recommend this tour for a solo female traveller.
