    The scenic train journey to Horton Plains was a highlight for our family, offering breathtaking views that truly set the tone for the day. While our guide was knowledgeable and provided plenty of insights, we felt that the pacing could have been a bit more relaxed during our hike. Overall, we appreciated the private experience and the chance to connect with nature in Bandarawela.

    We had the opportunity to explore the Horton Plains with a private guide, which allowed us to soak in the details of this stunning landscape at our own pace. The train ride to the starting point was a refreshing experience, with breathtaking views of the lush greenery and vibrant hills. While our guide was knowledgeable, there were moments when we wished for a slightly more engaging narrative about the history and wildlife. The trek through the plains was invigorating, offering a mix of serene moments and invigorating sights that truly showcased nature’s beauty. Overall, it was a fulfilling day, albeit with a few minor hitches in the pacing of the commentary.
