5.00You can see everything! not just an exhibition but walking through the active factory. The travel agency was responsive on Whatsup and accommodating and not overselling
Dodgy!

1.00I booked via Viator, minimal information about the tour booked was ever provided. Then I started being bombarded with emails and messages trying to sell transfers and other tours. When I didn't buy, these they sent a note the day before the trip via Viator (that I had paid for) refusing to pick me up! I had paid in full for a tour with pick up of course! I managed to cancel thankfully! Wouldn't want to give these scammers any money! AVOID!
Great working tea plantation with separate tea tasting venue

5.00Great working tea plantation with separate tea tasting venue. Even though we were unable todo the full tour due to no electricity after the cyclone, the tea museum was open and very interesting. We then went for the tea tasting further up the road and what a spectacular setting for a very nice tea tasting session. Lovely staff to facilitate, although possibly a bit of background info with the tea and processes should have added a bit more to the session.
