Arrive in Colombo
Bandaranaike International Airport to Colombo, about 35 km
- Welcome dinner
- Nuit : Colombo
- Environ 1 h de route
Your trip starts at Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB) at Katunayake, about 35 km north of Colombo. A driver meets you in the arrivals hall for the drive of about an hour, mostly on the airport expressway, to your hotel in Colombo.
Soir
Long-haul flights land at all hours, so nothing is planned before the evening: sleep, swim, or walk to Viharamahadevi Park and the Colombo Public Library under its old rain trees, or along Galle Face Green, where families fly kites by the sea at sunset. At about 6 pm your See Sight Tours guide meets the group for a briefing on the walks ahead, with every stage length, drive time and early start spelled out, and a kit check for shoes and rain gear. Then we sit down together for a welcome dinner of rice and curry, hoppers and seafood at a local restaurant.
Compris
- Pick-up at Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB)
- Welcome briefing and kit check with your guide
- Welcome dinner
Temps libre : Free until the evening briefing
Kelaniya and up to Kandy
Colombo to Kelaniya Raja Maha Vihara, then Kandy, about 120 km
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Kandy
- Environ 3.5 h de route
We leave at about 8 am and stop first at Kelaniya Raja Maha Vihara, about 10 km out of the city on the Kelani River, one of the most revered Buddhist temples near Colombo.
Matin
Its image house is painted with twentieth-century murals by Solias Mendis telling the life of the Buddha and the story of Buddhism in Sri Lanka, and in the early morning it is full of families bringing flowers.
Après-midi
Then we head inland and uphill, about three hours to Kandy, with a coffee stop on the way and a sit-down rice and curry lunch on arrival. Kandy, at about 500 metres, was the last royal capital until 1815 and its centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Soir
After a rest at the hotel we walk to the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic in the late afternoon and stay for the evening ceremony of drums and offerings. The rest of the evening is free by Kandy Lake.
Compris
- Kelaniya Raja Maha Vihara
- Sit-down lunch in Kandy
- Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, with the evening ceremony
Option plus facile : Watch the drummers from the hall below instead of joining the queue upstairs past the relic chamber, or rest at the hotel.
Temps libre : Evening free after the ceremony
Activité : Light clothing that covers shoulders and knees for both temples; shoes off at the door.
Pekoe Trail stage 1: Hanthana to Galaha
Kandy to the Ceylon Tea Museum at Hanthana, on foot to Galaha, back to Kandy
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Kandy
- Environ 1 h de route
The Pekoe Trail starts on the hills just south of Kandy, and so do we. A short drive takes us to the Ceylon Tea Museum, set in the old Hantane tea factory of 1925, where machines that rolled and dried the leaf a century ago still stand on the factory floors. Then we walk. Stage 1 follows quiet estate roads and paths through the Hanthana estate, among the older tea gardens in the country, with shade trees over the bushes and views back down to Kandy. Further on the trail passes through small villages and line houses where estate families live, and drops toward Galaha.
Après-midi
Expect about 5 hours on foot with breaks, mostly downhill or level after the first climb, and a picnic lunch on the way.
Soir
Our vehicle meets us at Galaha for the drive of about 45 minutes back to Kandy, where the evening is free: the lake loop, the market, or a cultural dance show.
Compris
- Ceylon Tea Museum at Hanthana
- Pekoe Trail stage 1, Hanthana to Galaha, with a local trail guide
- Picnic lunch on the trail
Activités en option
- Kandyan dance show in the evening (paid locally)
Option plus facile : Visit the museum, walk the first estate section through Hanthana, about 2 hours, then ride the vehicle to Galaha.
Temps libre : Evening free in Kandy
Activité : About 5 hours on foot; a climb at the start, then mostly level and downhill. The museum is reported closed on Mondays and Poya days, and we plan the day around it.
Into the hills to Hatton
Kandy to Hatton via Gampola and Nawalapitiya, about 80 km
- Petit-déjeuner, repas du midi et repas du soir
- Nuit : Hatton
- Environ 3 h de route
A slower day to let the legs recover. We leave Kandy at about 9 am and climb south-west through Gampola and Nawalapitiya along the Mahaweli valley, then up into tea country, about three hours with stops. The road winds through estates where tea pickers work the slopes, past waterfalls that run hardest after rain, and we stop at viewpoints rather than at shops.
Soir
Lunch is a sit-down rice and curry in Hatton, the market town of the Dickoya and Bogawantalawa tea districts at about 1,270 metres, cool enough for a jacket in the evening. The afternoon is free at the hotel, or take a short walk with your guide through the town and its busy market. Hatton's hotels and estate bungalows are spread out and restaurants are few, so dinner tonight and tomorrow is at the hotel. On January to April departures your guide also briefs anyone who wants to climb Adam's Peak.
Compris
- Drive into tea country with viewpoint stops
- Sit-down lunch in Hatton
- Short town walk with your guide
- Dinner at the hotel
Temps libre : Afternoon free
Pekoe Trail stage 7: Kotagala to Norwood
Hatton to Kotagala, on foot to Norwood, back to Hatton
- Petit-déjeuner, repas du midi et repas du soir
- Nuit : Hatton
- Environ 45 min de route
A short drive takes us to Kotagala to start stage 7 of the Pekoe Trail, a classic tea-country day of about 5 hours. The trail climbs out of the valley on estate paths, past the old Chrysler's Farm tea factory with its blue roof, then up into the hills for views over Hatton and the Dickoya valley.
Matin
On a clear morning you can see the cone of Adam's Peak on the skyline to the south-west. Tea pickers work the slopes with baskets on their backs from early morning, and the path drops past line houses and Hindu kovils to Singamalai Lake, the reservoir that supplies Hatton.
Après-midi
We finish near Norwood with a rice and curry lunch at a tea estate bungalow, then the vehicle takes us back to the hotel by mid-afternoon.
Soir
The rest of the day is free, and dinner is at the hotel.
Compris
- Pekoe Trail stage 7, Kotagala to Norwood, with a local trail guide
- Rice and curry lunch at a tea estate bungalow
- Dinner at the hotel
Activités en option
- Adam's Peak night ascent with a local guide, January to April departures only: leaves about 1:30 am on day 6, summit for sunrise, back by late morning (guide and transfer cost confirmed at booking)
Option plus facile : Walk the first hour to the viewpoints over Hatton, then ride the vehicle to lunch.
Temps libre : Afternoon free
Activité : About 5 hours on foot with a steady climb in the first half. Adam's Peak is more than 5,000 steps to 2,243 metres, 3 to 4 hours up in the dark; climbers ride to Nuwara Eliya on day 6 instead of walking.
Pekoe Trail stage 6 and on to Nuwara Eliya
Hatton to Kotagala, on foot to Watagoda past St Clair's Falls, then Nuwara Eliya
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Nuwara Eliya
- Environ 1.5 h de route
Stage 6 links Kotagala and Watagoda, and we walk it eastward so it ends on the road to Nuwara Eliya. From Kotagala the trail follows estate roads and village paths along the valley, past a large banyan tree by a stream and through Holyrood estate. The highlight is St Clair's Falls, a broad twin cascade dropping through the tea, seen from the trail rather than the crowded roadside lay-by.
Après-midi
Expect about 4 to 5 hours on foot, with lunch on the way. At Watagoda railway station the vehicle meets us for the drive of about an hour through Nanu Oya and up to Nuwara Eliya, the old hill station at about 1,870 metres, with its red-brick post office, racecourse and Gregory Lake.
Soir
It is cold here at night. The evening is free, and anyone who climbed Adam's Peak in the night rides straight to the hotel for a long rest.
Compris
- Pekoe Trail stage 6, Kotagala to Watagoda, with a local trail guide
- St Clair's Falls from the trail
- Lunch on the way
Option plus facile : Ride the vehicle to the St Clair's Falls viewpoint and walk the last section to Watagoda, about 1.5 hours.
Temps libre : Evening free in Nuwara Eliya
Activité : About 4 to 5 hours on foot, rolling with no long climbs. Adam's Peak climbers skip the walk and go straight to Nuwara Eliya.
Horton Plains at dawn, then Haputale
Nuwara Eliya to Horton Plains National Park, World's End on foot, then Haputale via Ohiya
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Haputale
- Environ 3 h de route
Matin
We leave at about 5 am with a packed breakfast to be at the Horton Plains gate when it opens at 6 am. The plateau, at about 2,100 metres, is part of the Central Highlands of Sri Lanka World Heritage Site: open grassland, cloud forest and stunted trees hung with moss, often frosty at dawn in the dry months. The loop walk is about 9.5 km and 3 to 4 hours, out to World's End, where the escarpment drops roughly 870 metres to the tea estates below, and back by Baker's Falls. Cloud usually fills the view by mid-morning, which is why we go early. Sambar deer graze near the entrance.
Après-midi
Then we drive down through Ohiya and the Boralanda valley to Haputale, about two hours, for a sit-down lunch. Haputale sits on a ridge at about 1,430 metres with views to both sides, home for two nights, and the afternoon is free.
Compris
- Horton Plains National Park at opening, with entry
- World's End and Baker's Falls loop with your guide
- Sit-down lunch in Haputale
Option plus facile : Walk to Little World's End and back, about 2 hours, and wait at the visitor centre.
Temps libre : Afternoon free in Haputale
Activité : About 9.5 km on rocky paths with gentle climbs; dawn is cold, so bring a warm layer and gloves. Plastic bags are checked at the gate.
Lipton's Seat on foot
Haputale to Dambatenne, on foot to Lipton's Seat and back
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Haputale
- Environ 45 min de route
Lipton's Seat is the ridge above the Dambatenne estate where, the story goes, Thomas Lipton sat to look over the tea he bought here in the 1890s. We drive about 30 minutes from Haputale to the Dambatenne factory at about 6:30 am and walk up the estate road and paths through the tea, about 7 km and 2 to 2.5 hours, climbing to around 1,970 metres.
Matin
Pickers start work as we go, and on a clear morning the view at the top runs across the Uva hills and down to the southern plains; by late morning it is usually in cloud. Tea and roti from the stalls at the top, then we walk back down a different path to Dambatenne for a guided visit of the factory, built by Lipton, to see the leaf withered, rolled and dried.
Après-midi
Lunch is back in Haputale, and the afternoon is free.
Compris
- Walk from Dambatenne to Lipton's Seat and back, with a local trail guide
- Lipton's Seat entry
- Dambatenne tea factory visit
- Sit-down lunch in Haputale
Activités en option

Option plus facile : Ride the vehicle up to Lipton's Seat for the view and walk down through the tea, about 1.5 hours.
Temps libre : Afternoon free
Activité : About 14 km in all, 4 to 5 hours, with a steady climb of about 500 metres; down on estate paths that can be slippery after rain.
Train to Demodara, walk to Ella
Haputale to Demodara by train, Pekoe Trail stage 16 on foot to Ella, then Little Adam's Peak
- Petit-déjeuner, repas du midi et repas du soir
- Nuit : Ella
- En train
Matin
After breakfast we take the hill train from Haputale with reserved seats, about an hour to an hour and a half through Bandarawela and down to Demodara, where the line loops under itself in a spiral. From Demodara we walk stage 16 of the Pekoe Trail, one of the shortest, about 3 hours, on village paths and through tea to the Nine Arch Bridge, the 1921 viaduct of stone and brick curving across a forested ravine. Your guide knows the train times, so you can watch one cross from the path above.
Après-midi
The trail goes on through the Ella Forest Reserve into Ella for a sit-down lunch. After a rest, we walk up Little Adam's Peak in the late afternoon, about 45 minutes through tea to a grassy ridge, for the light falling across the Ella Gap.
Soir
Tonight is the farewell dinner, the last evening together.
Compris
- Reserved seats on the train from Haputale to Demodara
- Pekoe Trail stage 16, Demodara to Ella, past the Nine Arch Bridge
- Sit-down lunch in Ella
- Little Adam's Peak in the late afternoon
- Farewell dinner
Activités en option
- Ayurvedic massage (paid locally)
Option plus facile : Skip Little Adam's Peak and take a tuk-tuk to the cafe viewpoints above the Ella Gap.
Temps libre : Early afternoon free in Ella
Activité : About 3 hours on foot, then 1.5 hours return for Little Adam's Peak. Stay back from the bridge edge and off the track; there are no railings. The train runs on a post-cyclone timetable confirmed with your itinerary, and if it is cancelled the vehicle drives you to Demodara.
Down from the hills to Colombo
Ella to Bandaranaike International Airport or Colombo via Wellawaya and the Southern Expressway, about 290 km
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Environ 6 h de route
The last day is the long one. We leave Ella at about 7:30 am, drop through the Ella Gap past Ravana Falls to Wellawaya, then cross the southern lowlands to join the Southern Expressway for the run north to Colombo, about 290 km and six hours of driving. That is well over our four-hour cap.
Après-midi
There is no shorter road out of the hills, and the train is not an option while the Kandy to Nanu Oya line is closed after the cyclone, so we break the day with a coffee stop, a sit-down lunch and a stretch stop. We aim to reach Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB) by about 3 pm.
Soir
Book a flight leaving after about 8 pm; many long-haul flights leave late in the evening. If you are staying on, we drop you at a Colombo hotel instead, and we can add a night in Colombo or Negombo before you fly.
Compris
- Ravana Falls on the way down
- Sit-down lunch on the way
- Drop-off at Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB) or a Colombo hotel
Activités en option
- An extra night in Colombo or Negombo (priced at booking)

Faune et météo : January to April is the dry season on the western side of the hills around Hatton and Adam's Peak, with clear mornings and cool nights; it is also the Adam's Peak pilgrimage season. July to September is the south-west monsoon: expect showers and mist around Hatton and Horton Plains, while Haputale and Ella, on the Uva side in the rain shadow, are usually drier and windy. Mornings are clearest in every month, which is why the high walks start early. Horton Plains has sambar deer and endemic birds; leeches are common on wet trails.

Questions
Les prix indiqués dans ces réponses s'appliquent à compter du 1er janv. 2027. Offre du Vendredi fou : 7 % de rabais sur le prix en petit groupe pour les demandes reçues au plus tard le 1er déc. 2026. À partir de CAD 3,180 par personne. Du 2 déc. au 31 déc. : à partir de CAD 3,285. À compter du 1er janv. 2027 : à partir de CAD 3,420.
What does the price include?
Nine nights in central hotels, 9 breakfasts, 9 lunches and 4 dinners, airport transfers both ways, our own vehicle at every trailhead with your luggage moved for you, reserved train seats from Haputale to Demodara, a See Sight Tours guide throughout with local trail guides, and every entry on the plan, including the Temple of the Tooth and Horton Plains National Park.
What is the Pekoe Trail?
A long-distance walking route of about 300 km through Sri Lanka's tea country, opened in 2023 and 2024 and following old estate roads and paths between Kandy, Nuwara Eliya and Ella. This trip walks four of its stages, plus Horton Plains and Lipton's Seat, over six days, choosing the sections with the best views and village life.
How fit do I need to be?
Fit enough to walk 4 to 6 hours a day, roughly 10 to 18 km, on several days running, with some steep climbs such as the 500 metres up to Lipton's Seat. The paths are not technical. Our vehicle meets the group at every trailhead and end, so on any day you can ride part of the stage instead.
How big is the group?
Between 7 and 12 guests. That fits one vehicle with seats to spare and one table at lunch, keeps the group together on narrow estate paths and lets a trail guide and your See Sight Tours guide walk at the front and back.
Who leads the trip?
A See Sight Tours guide travels with the group from the airport on day 1 to the airport on day 10. Licensed local trail guides walk the Pekoe Trail stages and Lipton's Seat with us. We send your guide's name with your final itinerary.
I'm travelling solo. Do I pay more?
Only if you want a room of your own, which is CAD 655 more, shown before you book with no surprise later. Everything else is the same as for guests who share a room: the same seats, meals, guides and walks.
When is the best time to walk the Pekoe Trail?
January to April is driest around Hatton and Horton Plains and is the Adam's Peak season. July to September is drier on the Haputale and Ella side but brings showers and mist around Hatton. We run in both windows and avoid the 13 to 15 April New Year. Mornings are clearest all year, so the high walks start early.
Can I climb Adam's Peak on this trip?
Yes, on January to April departures, as an option from Hatton. You leave at about 1:30 am with a local guide, climb more than 5,000 steps to the 2,243-metre summit for sunrise, and are back by late morning. Climbers ride to Nuwara Eliya the next day instead of walking. It is not offered from July to September.
How does booking work?
You request to book: pick your start date and style, and we confirm your trip within 24 hours. No payment is taken until then. The small group starts from CAD 3,420 per person sharing, taxes included, and the private trip from CAD 6,155.
Can we travel privately or on our own dates?
Yes. The private trip is your party only, with your own guide, vehicle and driver, on a date you choose, from CAD 6,155 per person. If you would rather walk independently on your own dates, ask us from the dates section and we will quote the same hotels, trail guides and transfers.
Do I need a visa for Sri Lanka?
Most visitors do. Apply online for an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before you fly, through the official Sri Lankan government site. Fees and free-visa schemes change, so check the rule for your passport when you book, and make sure your passport is valid for at least six months after arrival.
Why is the last day so long?
Ella to Colombo is about 290 km and six hours by road, and there is no shorter way while the Kandy to Nanu Oya railway is closed after Cyclone Ditwah. We break it with a coffee stop, a sit-down lunch and a stretch stop, and aim to reach the airport by about 3 pm. We can add a night in Colombo if you prefer.
