We originally planned to take the iconic train ride from Kandy to Ella, but we were advised that it would take 7 hours with the most scenic section in the last 3 hours between Nuwara Ella to Ella. Given this, we opted to ride the shorter section and were glad we did this! Traveling by car is much faster than…
Everyone we talked to told us that Kandy is one of the “must see” destinations on any trip to Sri Lanka. Maybe it was because of our very high expectations we were underwhelmed, and are glad we only chose to stay one night.
