Ella to Colombo city
Leaving the hills, Ella to Colombo begins with the Ella Gap descent past Ravana Falls, then follows quick lowland roads home. A door-to-door private transfer spares you the bus-and-train shuffle with luggage.
- Buduruwagala's colossal rock-cut Buddhas near Wellawaya
- Ravana Falls beside the hill road
- The Ella Gap, where the hills fall away to the plains
- Nine Arch Bridge and Little Adam's Peak in Ella itself
