Local vendors will enhance your trip with offerings of fresh pineapple, mango, and savory snacks. Your destination is a luxurious bungalow within a private tea estate, where you can settle in with fresh crumpets and tea, soaking in the panoramic views of the Bogawantalawa Valley.
Embrace the tranquillity of your surroundings in the historic tea planter’s bungalow, starting with a leisurely exploration of the estate.

Bid farewell to the verdant tea country as you embark on a seaplane journey southward, heading towards the rugged landscapes of Yala National Park. The flight offers a bird’s-eye view of Sri Lanka’s diverse countryside, transitioning from green hills to the striking coastline. Upon arrival, prepare for an afternoon of adventure with a jeep safari through the park, renowned for its biodiversity.
