How to Reach Hakgala Botanical Garden in Nuwara Eliya

If you are planning to visit here, then knowing how to reach Hakgala Botanical Garden will make your travel comfortable and hassle-free. One can reach Nuwara Eliya either by air, road or rail and from there a local auto rickshaw or bus will be a good option. Nuwara Eliya is known as the ‘Little England’ and is well-connected to the capital city, Colombo. The best way to reach Nuwara Eliya is by boarding a flight from Colombo to Bandaranaike International Airport and then take a cab to this highland paradise.

If you are planning to go to Nuwara Eliya by train, then get down at Nanu Oya railway station which is nearly 10 km from Nuwara Eliya. The road en route is via Kandy and Hatton, however, the conditions of these roads are not very good and might spoil the excitement of your journey. After reaching Nuwara Eliya, one can take an auto rickshaw, cab or even rent a bicycle to this Nuwara Eliya Botanical Garden.

By Air:

If you are boarding a plane from Colombo to Bandaranaike International Airport which is the nearest airport to Hakgala Botanical Garden, your travel time will be 3h 30m, including the flight journey of 1h 20m. One can take a taxi to the botanical garden which will take nearly 2 hours.

By Rail:

If you are taking a train from Colombo, then the travel time will be nearly 7h 15m. You will be reaching Nanu Oya in 6h 20m from where you can reach the botanical garden in the next 50-55 minutes via auto rickshaw or taxi.

By Road:

Your road journey depends on the destination from where you are heading for this garden. However, an excursion to Hakgala Botanical Garden via road might be a little tiring if you are traveling with kids and elderly people.

      Abhishek's 9 days trip to Nuwara Eliya

      It was a great trip as most of it was planned by us and was guided a bit by White Monkeys. Having a car with a driver at all times was great. The driver was also very sweet and humble. Apart from the things that worked there were many moments of miscommunication from the travel agent which made us
      lose money. In certain cases we also had our shortcomings, but the discount opportunities were not communicated to us by the travel agent. We were misled about the timings of our jeep tour for Yala National Park, we were not told about the saarc country discounts, the driver had very little knowledge about places. All of these definitely made us feel that we overpaid atleast 200usd for the package. The travel agent also didn't accept these issues and chose not to respond. It was a great trip but these were the only moments of disappointment and frustration.

      I wanted to extend my heartfelt thanks to you and your team for organizing such a wonderful trip for us. Everything was perfectly planned. We’ll certainly recommend your services to our friends and family, and we look forward to planning our next adventure with you! Our chauffeur - Pathmasiri Banda

      Kalyani V

      Chennai

      Kalyani's 6 days trip to Nuwara Eliya

      The Frontline staff & steeple Tours planned an excellent itenary for our trip for 8 days. Our appreciation to Ms Dilini of Steeple Tours and her 24×7 support on all the 8 days throught the trip is awesome. The Van 19 seater was ok but the driver Mr Nandana was extremely good and adjustable with us
      in many ways . He takes personal interest to take care of my mother 87 years old wherever she could not get down from the cab. The chauffeur Mr Charitha was a problem to us right from picking us at the airport, made us wait at the entrance airport zbd went to arrange cab for another 4 german traveller's. He was a man full of attitude always complaining about m/s steeple Tours, our agents and on the 7th day wanted to go away to pick some of his friend from the airport and made us wait at the road jn pitch dark for more than 40 minutes. Only with the interference of our staff M/s Dillini from steeple Tours we could reach the hotel at bentota on that day night. The chaffeur guide Mr Charitha did not behave properly and did not show anything at Colombo on the last day resulting a great disappointment to us. We lost our enjoyment due to the guide Mr Charitha eventhough we had a good itenary and support fron Ms. Dillini and with a good driver for the vehicle Mr Nandana The places are memorable and beautiful at nuwareliya & nine arch bridge, kandy cultural programme is worth to be seen. Seetha Amman temple, kathirkamam are oc devotional memories. Also Hanjman temple on way to nuwareliya and Indian restaurant Annapoorani there are great memories to us
