Kandy to Ella Shuttle Service
Book a transfer from Kandy to Ella — traversing the heart of Sri Lanka's magnificent hill country through rolling tea plantations, misty mountains, and waterfalls.
What to Expect
The scenery is breathtaking — emerald tea bushes carpeting steep hillsides, waterfalls cascading through jungle, and Tamil tea pickers in colorful saris dotting the landscape.
About Ella
Ella is a small hill town at around 1,000 meters elevation, beloved for its laid-back atmosphere and stunning surroundings. The Nine Arches Bridge, Little Adam's Peak, Ella Rock, and Ravana Falls are the top attractions. The town's cafes and restaurants offer panoramic valley views. While the Kandy-to-Ella train is world-famous for its scenery, the road journey offers its own spectacular vistas and the flexibility to stop at tea factories and viewpoints along the way.

Check Available Options
BookShuttles.com does not operate these transfers. We compare listings from third-party operators; booking is completed on Viator, and we may earn a commission from bookings made through the links on this page at no extra cost to you. How this works.
Prices and ratings below are not live. They are a copy of Viator’s listings last refreshed on 2026-02-16, kept here so you can compare options. Follow any listing through to Viator for the current price and availability before you book.
Check the direction on the listing before you book. Some of the transfers below are sold for both directions, and some are listed as Ella to Kandy rather than Kandy to Ella. Open any listing on Viator and confirm the pickup and drop-off points are the way round you need. We do not operate these transfers and cannot check them for you.
