Spring Acre is around 175 km away from the Bandaranaike International Airport, Colombo. We would be happy to arrange an airport pick-up and all local transportation for a competitive price.
You can opt for a drive to Spring Acre, which is around 5 hours from Colombo. The first half of the journey on the A1 highway up to Peradeniya would take approximately 3 hours. From there, you get on to the A5 highway and pass some of the most breathtaking scenery in the island. The road is long and winding, yet the astounding mountain vistas of lush green valleys of tea and the misty peaks rising majestically in the distance will keep you entertained all the way.
Just past the 62nd kilometre post, you will reach Nuwara Eliya, the Tea capital of Sri Lanka. At the sign post of Nuwara Eliya city limits, on your right, you will see a small road leading uphill to Spring Acre (GPS Coordinates- Latitude: 6.990895, Longitude: 80.748256)
