About Nuwara Eliya

Nuwara Eliya sits at 1,868 m in the middle of the tea country, the highest town in Sri Lanka and the coldest place most visitors sleep on the island. The British built it as a hill station, and every road out of it is a mountain road: slow, beautiful and not the place to haggle with a stranger at dawn. Every taxi and transfer from Nuwara Eliya on this page has a fixed price for the whole vehicle, with the driver, fuel, tolls and parking included. You pay the full price online by card when you book, nothing is owed to your driver on the day, and the price does not change with the hotel or the weather.
