点评:We took a full-day Ella Tour with Udawalawe Safari, which includes Udawalawe National Park, Ravana Falls, a train ride from Demodara to Ella (Nine Arches Bridge), and Little Adam’s Peak.
We were absolutely happy with our experience, and I still can’t believe that we managed to do everything in just one day!
Sjith picked us up from our Airbnb in Matara at 3:30 AM, and we returned around 11 PM (he drove five hours to take us back home 🙏).
The inside of Sjith’s brand-new tuk-tuk felt like a small car, with comfortable seats, transparent curtains, and fans (he even has a rear-view monitor!). We were able to sleep until we arrived at a lake near Udawalawe National Park, where he kindly provided us with tea and a Swiss roll.
At Udawalawe National Park, we saw around 15 elephants, as well as peacocks, beautiful birds, crocodiles, and a group of buffaloes. It might be helpful to ask the jeep driver where you are heading next so you know what to expect. Also, don’t hesitate to ask the driver to stop longer when you find a view you love :)
I especially loved the train ride from Demodara (one station before Ella) to Ella!
Throughout the tour, we took our time at each spot, and Sjith never rushed us. Instead, he adjusted the schedule flexibly to suit our pace, and it turned out to be perfect for us. He also happily stopped whenever we wanted lunch, king coconut, or coffee.
He is a very safe and patient driver and never overtakes when it seems risky, so we always felt secure during the journey. I also really enjoyed talking with him.
The next day, he even sent me an edited video, which made it easy to share the experience with my friends and family.
翻译:我们参加了Udawalawe Safari的埃拉一日游,行程包括乌达瓦拉维国家公园、拉瓦纳瀑布、从德莫达拉到埃拉的火车之旅(途经九拱桥)以及小亚当峰。
我们对这次旅行非常满意,至今仍难以置信我们竟然在一天之内完成了所有行程!
Sjith凌晨3:30从我们在马塔拉的Airbnb民宿接我们,晚上11点左右送我们回去(他开了五个小时的车送我们回家🙏)。
Sjith那辆崭新的嘟嘟车内部就像一辆小轿车,座椅舒适,配有透明窗帘和风扇(甚至还有后视摄像头!)。我们一路睡到抵达乌达瓦拉维国家公园附近的一个湖边,他热情地为我们准备了茶和瑞士卷。
在乌达瓦拉维国家公园,我们看到了大约15头大象,还有孔雀、各种美丽的鸟类、鳄鱼和一群水牛。最好事先问问吉普车司机接下来要去哪里,这样你就能知道会看到什么。另外,如果你看到喜欢的景色,别犹豫,让司机多停一会儿 :) 我尤其喜欢从德莫达拉(埃拉前一站)到埃拉的火车之旅!
整个旅程中,我们在每个景点都悠闲地欣赏风景,Sjith 从不催促我们。他灵活地调整行程安排,以适应我们的节奏,结果非常完美。每当我们想吃午饭、吃椰子或喝咖啡时,他都欣然停车。
他是一位非常安全且耐心的司机,从不在危险的情况下超车,所以我们在旅途中始终感到安全。我也很喜欢和他聊天。
第二天,他还发给我一段剪辑好的视频,让我可以轻松地与朋友和家人分享这段经历。
