Tea Picking Experience. After breakfast this morning the hotel staff will assist you with donning your tea plucking apparel (saris for the ladies and sarong like garments for gentlemen) – this is optional. You are preparing for a morning of tea picking, sorting, and processing (in the Mini Tea Factory), and the activities will now commence.

Nuwara Eliya Post Office. After the tea experience and freshening up, you will head downhill to visit some of Nuwara Eliya’s attractions. Besides the tea plantations, you will be driving by lush terraced fields of high-altitude crops such as strawberries, some potato varieties, and other vegetables. Your first stop will be at the historic Nuwara Eliya Post Office. Constructed by the British in 1894, this red brick two storey Tudor building is a treat both outside and inside. From the post office your guide will take you for a walk through some of the charming historic sections of the town.

Lovers Leap Waterfall. Next up, and on the way back to your hotel, is the Lovers Leap Waterfall, named after a local tale of a prince and his beloved. For those who are so inclined, there is the option to hike up to the top of the waterfall for a great view. After the waterfall you will head back to your hotel to enjoy the late afternoon and sunset show put on by the clouds as they change colors.
