Ella, Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 is without a doubt the most popular stop for anyone visiting this country. It's famous for its incredible nature, and of course the iconic Sri Lankan highlands. And spoiler alert, IT'S ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!
In today's video we spent 3 days driving our little tuktuk Aliya all over Ella searching for the best things to do in the area. We hope you enjoy it and that you can even steal our itinerary! We made a PDF with everything we showed in the video, plus other local recommendations and personal highlights that didn't make it to the vlog ;) It's always our goal for you to have the best trip ever!

★ EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE RENTING A TUKTUK IN SRI LANKA BLOG POST: www.waysoftheworldblog.com/sr...
★ COMPANY WE RENTED OUR TUK-TUK FROM: @TuktukRental
tuktukrental.com
We really love what they're doing. They rent their tuktuks from locals and share the revenue with them, thus supporting the local economy directly and creating a meaningful impact. We love them!
We paid for our tuktuk rental, however they invited us to be a part of their affiliate program. Use the code 'wotw' to get a 5% discount on your booking - and we receive a small commission too, which helps support this channel :)
Thanks so much for watching and for being here :) Please leave any questions you may have in the comments!

Very informative videos you do a great job. Is it feasible or worth doing a day trip from Kandy to Ella? We are basing ourselves in Colombo and Kandy for a week each and aim to do day trips due to the range of ages on our family trip ranging from 9 to 80. Thoughts?
@waysoftheworld_
@waysoftheworld_ 5 ай бұрын
Hmmm, no I think that would be too far to go back and forth in a day. Also, Ella town is not much to see. So once you are there you'll have to do stuff, like hike or visit waterfalls. Being in Ella town is not the same as experiencing Ella, if that makes sense? Nuware Eliya is slightly more manageable, but still quite far.
