Really value for money and outstanding service
Excellent Service, even before starting the trip. Well informed about hotel, tour details timing etc. Very comfortable car and the great safari. Comfortable jeep and always concerned that we have the maximum enjoyment. Food was simple but very good. Hotel was quite basic but we booked last minute (1 day before) over Christmas day. The trip was really value for money and we did not need to worry about anything. Even Tuk Tuk's were arranged to take us to the bridge and to the starting point of little adams peak. Non- alcoholic drinks all included and the driver Raveen was outstanding. Normally we do not book full packages but this one was really worth while. Thank you and team for taking these memories back home.

Best Tour Ever!
This was one of the best tours I’ve ever been on! Our driver Ishan was an expert and super friendly and helpful. They even got me a cake for my birthday! Every experience from the safari to the train ride was excellent. The communication and coordination of the tour agency was perfect. I can’t wait to come back to Sri Lanka, thank you so much!

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
2 Day Tour of Yala & Ella with Hill Country Scenic Train Ride - All Inclusive: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Negombo.
How much does 2 Day Tour of Yala & Ella with Hill Country Scenic Train Ride - All Inclusive cost?
+
Prices start at $340 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Negombo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2 Day Tour of Yala & Ella with Hill Country Scenic Train Ride - All Inclusive take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Negombo is not rushed.
Is 2 Day Tour of Yala & Ella with Hill Country Scenic Train Ride - All Inclusive worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Negombo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2 Day Tour of Yala & Ella with Hill Country Scenic Train Ride - All Inclusive?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 2 Day Tour of Yala & Ella with Hill Country Scenic Train Ride - All Inclusive suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2 Day Tour of Yala & Ella with Hill Country Scenic Train Ride - All Inclusive?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Negombo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Negombo and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2 Day Tour of Yala & Ella with Hill Country Scenic Train Ride - All Inclusive start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Negombo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Negombo?
+
On Outty we rank every Negombo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Car & Driver for 07 Days Tour In Sri Lanka, Most Popular Round Tour in Sri Lanka (10 Days), Highly recommended multi day tour in Sri Lanka. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Negombo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Negombo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
