What To Expect
Nine Arches Bridge
The Nine Arch Bridge, also known as the ‘Bridge in the Sky’ was constructed by connecting two bog mountains when constructing the Badulla – Colombo railway. This bridge is 300 feet in length, 25 feet in width and 80-100 feet in height. It is one of the best examples of colonial-era railway construction in the country. The Bridge can be reached by travelling 2km on Gotuwala road starting from Halpe Textile centre in Badulla Bandarawela road. The surrounding area has seen a steady increase in tourism due to the bridge’s architectural ingenuity and the profuse greenery in the nearby hillsides.
Demodara Loop
The Demodara Loop is a spiral railway loop in Demodara and is a piece of cutting-edge civil engineering. The railway line runs underneath itself, snakes around the mountain and appears from a tunnel which is below the Demodara Railway Station; this railway line is said to be the only one of its kind in the world.

5.00We had a enjoyable and comfortable day trip. Timely picked up from our hotel. Our guide/driver Lal Kumarage took excellent care of us. He went out of his way to make sure we see things which were not even part of the itinerary. Lovely human being and we will always be grateful to him. Kajal, Niraj and Ishan from UK

3.00Drivers were fantastic given the traffic and weather conditions. The locations visited did not require entry fees so not sure how it’s an inclusion. No WIFI or water was provided and we had to pay $30 extra for a tuk tuk to the bridge because the van couldn’t go past a certain point. Ella and the other locations were beautiful but this is just a transport service and probably would be better off booking a driver opposed to this day tour.

1.00Unfortunately, this tour was a huge disappointment and by no means what was promised on the website. For €235.65 we expected a comprehensive day tour with several stops and sights – instead we were only driven from Kandy to Ella, only a tea factory we saw. At our request at the end of the trip, whether we would at least visit the Nine Arches Bridge, we were advised to do so at our own expense the next day with a tuk-tuk. Only after urging, because this was supposed to be included in the tour, we were organized a tuk-tuk. For what was ultimately offered, we could have just taken a taxi for a fraction of the price. This tour was absolutely not worth their money and I cannot recommend it.

5.00This tour came about because we had a Kandy to Ella train booked and it was cancelled at the last minute. The company agent worked really hard late at night to sort us out for the following morning. The trip was modified to accommodate our needs and the price adjusted accordingly. That’s pretty good service by anyone’s book and shows that this firm won’t leave you in the lurch.
Amazing journey and a good guide

5.00This is a highly recommended trip to learn about the best teas in Sri Lanka, the most beautiful mountain views, and the interesting towns and delicacies along the way. My guide, Mr. Randika, is very good. He is very professional and arranges the schedule of the day very reasonably. Before the heavy rain, he showed me all the scenic spots that needed to be hiked. His driving skill was so good that he took me through the fog and sent me back to the hotel safely. He is very familiar with the scenic spots along the way and stops at every place worth taking pictures.

4.00Drive from Kandy to Little England the highlight - really beautiful. Also enjoyed the drive to Ella and visiting Nine Arch Bridge but heavy rain unfortunately ( fun to experience monsoon but not so good for sightseeing). Everything well organised and felt safe and well looked after. Longish day but well worth it
