Itinéraire
Bluefield Tea Garden est un domaine de production de thé à flanc de colline populaire au Sri Lanka situé dans la ville de Rambado, à environ 1200 mètres d'altitude, entouré d'un environnement assez agréable et pittoresque de végétation luxuriante et de vallées.
Les chutes de Ramboda mesurent 109 m (358 pieds) de haut et sont la 11e plus haute chute d'eau du Sri Lanka et la 729e plus haute chute d'eau du monde. Il est situé dans la région de Pussellawa, sur l'autoroute A5 au col de Ramboda. Il est formé par Panna Oya qui est un affluent de Kothmale Oya. L'altitude des chutes est de 945 m (3 100 pieds) au-dessus du niveau de la mer.
Le bureau de poste de Nuwara Eliya est un bâtiment emblématique situé au centre de la ville de Nuwara Eliya. Ce bâtiment de deux étages en briques rouges construit selon le style architectural néo-Tudor est l'un des plus anciens bureaux de poste du pays. En 2012, l'étage supérieur du bâtiment, qui était le logement du maître de poste, a été transformé en lieu d'hébergement touristique.
Souvent surnommée la « Petite Angleterre », cette communauté distinguée des hautes terres a une atmosphère de village rose et vaguement britannique, avec ses bungalows de l'époque coloniale, ses hôtels de style Tudor, ses haies bien entretenues et ses jolis jardins. En effet, Nuwara Eliya était autrefois l'évasion au climat frais préférée des pionniers anglais et écossais, travailleurs et buveurs, de l'industrie du thé au Sri Lanka.
Le lac Gregory, parfois aussi appelé lac Gregory ou réservoir Gregory, est un réservoir au cœur de la ville montagneuse du pays du thé, Nuwara Eliya, Sri Lanka. Le lac Gregory a été construit pendant la période du gouverneur britannique Sir William Gregory en 1873. Le lac et la région environnante constituent la région du lac Gregory.

I highly recommend taking this tour with Irfan. He provided useful commentary throughout the trip about Sri Lankan culture and heritage, while also engaging in discussion about my interests… but without being overly chatty - a fine balance that Irfan achieved perfectly! A highlight was visiting the tea plantation, I really enjoyed learning how tea leaves are processed in a working factory. We were also super lucky to experience mist on the mountain, which offered lots of unique photography opportunities for both of us. Irfan also kindly made a short detour to a stunning botanic garden once he knew I was interested in plants, and always checked in to make sure I was getting everything I needed from the tour. Overall I was very happy with the experience.
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review! We're so happy to hear that you had a great experience with Mr. Irfan. He truly enjoys sharing Sri Lanka’s rich culture and natural beauty, and it's great to know he struck the perfect balance between guiding and giving space. We're glad you enjoyed the tea plantation visit and the surprise misty views — sounds like a magical moment for photography! It’s also wonderful to hear that Irfan went the extra mile with the detour to the botanical garden to match your interests. Your recommendation means a lot to us. We look forward to welcoming you again for more memorable adventures in Sri Lanka! 🌿📸🇱🇰 Warm regards, Zameek

We decided to make this excursion after travelling with Mr. Rizwan the previous day and having a great time. He took us to a tea factory where we experienced all the process, walk around Nuwara Ellya, and took great pictures. Then he left us in the train station. We highly recommend Mr. Ritwan and Aaliya Tours if you need transport or excursions in Sri Lanka!

Aaliya tours was very professional, got in touch with me a couple of days before the tour with necessary information about the tour. The driver/guide was fantastic, a good driver, keep amused and informed with the cultures, and was good at taking photos. I highly recommend taking the tea plantation tour with Aaliya tours and Irfan the driver/guide.

I enjoyed a wonderful ride travelling up into the hills around the tea plantations. The views are stunning. The walk up to the waterfall is well worth it, wear trainers or walking shoes. So many places to stop off and take photos,”. My guide, Irfan, was so friendly and helpful, and no request was too great. I would thoroughly recommend him as a guide. The Blue Field Tea Plantation was really interesting to discover how it processed. There is no obligatory purchase, I don’t drink black tea so had a very refreshing iced latte.
Dear Rachel, Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the scenic ride through the tea plantations and the beautiful views.

I had an amazing day tour to Nuwara Eliya with Mr. Shukri as my guide. He was an exceptionally careful driver, navigating the winding scenic mountain roads with their perilous drops to the side with great skill and confidence, which made me feel completely at ease. Mr. Shukri was also incredibly patient and attentive to my needs. He stopped at the roadside so I could take in the breathtaking panoramic views and capture some wonderful photos. He even made a special stop for me to enjoy a late lunch before driving me back to my hotel. I also appreciated his thoughtfulness in letting me try local snacks and his insightful explanations about the area's attractions. Thanks to Mr. Shukri, the trip was not only safe and comfortable but also memorable and full of local charm. I highly recommend him!

Irfan was such a great driver, and we had the best transfer from Kandy to Nuwara Eliya! It’s a shame we couldn’t hike up to the waterfall because we were too tired from climbing Sigiriya Rock the day before, but we’ll definitely make sure to come back. Thank you, Irfan, for being such a fantastic driver!
Dear Rayat, Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you had a great day and that Irfan made your transfer from Kandy to Nuwara Eliya enjoyable. He’ll be so happy to know you appreciated his efforts! Sigiriya Rock can indeed be quite the climb, but it sounds like you made the most of your journey regardless. We’d love to welcome you back in the future to explore the waterfall and more of Sri Lanka’s beauty at your own pace. Safe travels, and thank you for choosing Aaliya Tours! Best wishes, Zameek
