Overview

The story of this experience

Nuwara Eliya / Hatton / Haputale / Ella | Approximately 2–3 hours

Walk into the emerald-green tea fields of Sri Lanka's hill country and discover the journey of Ceylon Tea from leaf to cup.

Meet tea workers, learn how the tender leaves are selected and, where permitted, try your hand at plucking. Continue into the estate to discover how the freshly picked leaves are weighed, processed and prepared for the next stage of their journey.

The experience becomes even more meaningful when combined with time in a tea worker's community or home, allowing you to understand not only the tea itself but the people and landscapes behind one of Sri Lanka's most famous exports.

Please note: Subject to estate operations, weather and availability. Tea-plucking opportunities may vary according to harvesting conditions.
