Day 3 Nuwara Eliya
This morning you should make an early start for Horton Plains to arrive at World`s End before the clouds rise! This is a beautiful and fairly gentle walk through a landscape that reminded me of Dartmoor or the Scottish Highlands - a rolling countryside with the soft scent of heather and gorse, and the only noise the gurgling of streams that merge into the crashing Baker`s Falls. You have the rest of the day at leisure.
Day 4 Nuwara Eliya - Yala National Park
From Nuwara Eliya you will drive down to Yala, a national park where you have a couple of nights to maximize your chances of seeing the leopard and sloth bear of the area. It is also a beautiful area, and your hotel overlooks the coast with a beautiful stretch of deserted beach. It is a long drive but there is plenty to see en route and you can ask your chauffeur-guide to stop for any photo opportunities.

In the morning and late afternoon you will join safaris into the Yala National Park. These are interesting safaris and you are likely to see spotted deer, wild boar and wild elephant in addition to a wide variety of birds.
