Currently, Sri Lanka is one of the largest exporters of tea worldwide. The high altitudes produce the best flavors, so Sri Lanka’s hill country is the ideal environment to grow the most flavorsome tea. A guided tour around a Tea Factory is an enlightening experience.

All around Nuwara Eliya, you will see evidence of the British influence, houses like country cottages or Queen Ann-style mansions.
