Dinuka was a star. Highlight of my trip. Communicated from booking & still checking on me. He turned up with a tuk tuk driver. I say this cause he spent time with me & we met tuk tuk in different locations. Ella Rock was a hike, so don't eat too much breakfast. Hawaiian biscuits are popular for snacks. It's incredible as clouds drifted in & out. Dinuka surprised me with hot tea & and a lot of knowledge about the area. He then took me to a waterfall where I swam peacefully. Tea pickers everywhere. Then for lunch which was provided & delicious. The train was scheduled & he had contacts with train drivers. The walk down & views picture perfect to nine arches. Dinuka, who knew the best places for photos, made me feel like a supermodel. It was all about location & timing. Fabulous. After train past, we venture up to tuk tuk. I've travelled the world & Sri Lanka people are the kindest, most helpful people I've met. I ❤️ this country. When you meet a tour guide that goes above, above & beyond & makes you feel special. We'll always be friends. Next stop, Little Afams Peak. Was I delighted to see a swim & pretty dresses. $40 AUS to have a go. Tuk tuk driver filmed from front & Dinuka behind. Blow my mind. The video & photos were perfect. Swinging into Ella Rock. ❤️ There are zip lines & a Kool swim bar. Then off for a walk, Little Adams Peak more pictures & he gifted me with a memory I'll keep forever. Worth every cent. I hope he get tour guide award. Thank you from the back of my heart. You made my solo trip full of memories. Highly recommend as you can guess. ????????❤️
