A Visit to a Tea Factory

Depending on where you stay in the Hill Country in Sri Lanka, we can arrange an experience to visit a Tea Factory. You will see how these green leaves end up on your breakfast table. Two of the best are the Pedro Tea Factory or Bluefield Tea Gardens, very close to Nuwara Eliya. Also of note is the Mackwoods Labookellie Tea Centre on the road to Kotmale.
