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.

Trip guide Abdul was excellent and made our entire trip very smooth and exciting.

Harsh Vanvala

Bengaluru

Harsh's 7 days trip to Nuwara Eliya

Every thing was good except Hotel at Nuwara Eliya. Service & food was not good. I expected a good hotel there also as I have choosen five star category. Vehicle provided should be better than given.All things are more or less ok. Except the trip advisor Chetana Sharma.She is a newone most probably.

She does not know anything about payment terms.She insisted payment to be done directly for the balance amount in USD cash.I couldn't understand ?It was better for me to pay Travel triangle in India. Hotel location at Colombo.Ofcorse it was choosen by me.

Radha's 3 days trip to Nuwara Eliya

Very good collection of travel agencies and experiences. But the number of agencies who are pro active and responsive in discussing the itinerary are lesser compared to the overall number

SIVAPRIYA K

Chennai

Sivapriya's 5 days trip to Nuwara Eliya

Srilanka is really a good place to visit. We booked the package through Travco Adventures. It was really a pleasant say. The package was also budget friendly compared to other agencies. The rooms were really good. In one of the places we stayed, our room was allocated nearby the river, we had a real

good view. Food was also good in all the places we stayed. A private car was provided to us and it was spacious. However, there are also few cons. 1) Guides will be mostly working with them on contract basis. It's not like they are aware of the full itinerary with respect to places and will be taking us there. We might have to be proactive and tell them these are the places we want to visit, and ensure all the places mentioned in the list is covered. 2) We were told that we would be provided with free sim upon arrival to Srilanka, but the assigned driver was not aware of it, and this lead to a bit of confusion and a delay of around an hour. It would have been good, if all these had been communicated prior. But apart from these, the assigned guide Mr. Thushar Kumar was also really good and was sportive. He was really a kind person and it was nice to chit-chat with him during the journey. He ensured we had a good, relaxing, value for money trip.

Saravanakumar's 5 days trip to Nuwara Eliya

Our trip was really good. The srilankan tour agent helped us a lot 'dilini'. A spl thanks to her and the tour guide & driver. The only one which I don't like is the travel triangle agent, I forgot her name. She was super rude and acting like a PM (no time to speak etc etc). I never had this kind o

f experience with anyone.

Our holiday with trip travel hub was good. Efficient service for people in our group wanting a change in itenary at last moment. Travel agent was very accommodating. Gave us good car with driver. Only at Mirissa the room given to us was on 4th floor but no lift facility.

Moushumi Ghosh

Hyderabad

Moushumi's 6 days trip to Nuwara Eliya

I would say my overall trip was fine but there is scope of improvement when it comes to itinerary and planning. We could not cover a lot of points irrespective of the fact we started everyday as early as 9am. We barely got any time to shop in Colombo, in fact Lotus tower was the only place we could

vidit after our arrival to Colombo and the cab driver didn't let us shop the next day or on our last day when we headed 5-6 hours early to the airport. The hotels were good except for the fact that two of them had no lifts but we had to climb stairs which was not beforehand. In fact the hotel which had a great view in Kandy, I requested the agent if we could stay there instead of going to Nuwara eliya but since it was last minute it was not acceptable. I would give 3 out 5 as there is scope of having better experience. My best memory is the time we spent in the Millennium elephant orphanage where we fed and bathed the elephant and walked with one.
