Overview

Step into the heart of Sri Lanka’s hill country and experience the story of tea like never before. Your journey begins with a relaxed tuk tuk ride through rolling green plantations, where the fresh mountain air and endless tea fields create a truly peaceful setting.

Along the way, you will meet local tea pluckers and see how they skillfully harvest tea leaves by hand. You will even get the chance to try plucking tea yourself, gaining a deeper appreciation for the craft behind every cup. A simple picnic surrounded by nature adds a personal and authentic touch to the experience, far from busy tourist spots.

The journey continues to Lipton’s Seat, one of the most iconic viewpoints in Sri Lanka. Named after Thomas Lipton, this spot offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding hills. You can sit beside his statue and imagine the vision he had when shaping the tea industry here.

Next, visit Dambatenne Tea Factory, built in 1890. Here, you will walk through the fascinating journey of tea production, from leaf to cup. Learn about the stages of fermenting, rolling, drying, cutting, and grading tea before enjoying a freshly brewed cup at the end of your tour.
