The train journey from Kandy to Ella is widely considered one of the most beautiful train rides in the world. Winding through emerald tea plantations and misty mountains, it is a must-do.

Getting Tickets

Reserved tickets sell out weeks in advance. We highly recommend booking 1st or 2nd class reserved seats well before your trip.

Which Side is Best?

Sit on the right side of the train from Kandy to Nuwara Eliya, and the left side from Nuwara Eliya to Ella for the best views.
