Knuckles Spice Trail Trek from Kandy

The guide was really friendly, explained lots about the plants, spices, tea, coffee and fruit and I could smell and taste some of it. It’s a really nice experience to see how the plants look like and what kind of work needs to be done before we can all use it in Europe. The views and landscape of the knuckles area has been absolutely stunning, even though there has been some mist about the top tips. We walked through the spice forests, through tea plantations and also rice fields. I had the opportunity to swim in the natural swimming pool by the waterfall and it was abolsutely worth to try even though the water was pretty cool. Also you can try to let the fish nibble at your feet. In the end we were offered a buffet with different kinds of rice&curry and they even kept in mind that I was vegetarian. I would definitely recommend this tour!

Lakmal of Nature Parsdise Tours was very informative throughout our walk pointing out views, plants of interest, etc. The highlights are wandering through the tea plantations, learning the process of harvesting the tea, swiming in the rock pools, having the fish gently nibble your feet, the spice farmers and paddy fields and finally a truly local lunch in the company of a local family including the opportunity to try some toddy. An excellent and highly recommended tour
