Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.

Upon arriving at Lipton's Seat, the first thing that struck me was the sheer beauty of the surrounding landscape. The tea plantations, stretching as far as the eye can see, were a vibrant tapestry of greens and golds, with workers plucking tea leaves under the sun. The air was fresh and invigorating, invigorating my senses as I made my way to the viewpoint.

Spectacular experience. We're up at 5:00 am. We had booked a tuk-Tuk the day before through the accommodation in Haputale. It takes you an hour to get there. That's 16 km from Haputale. Calculate the time to arrive just as the sun rises. The road is narrow and winding, and bumpy. LKR 550 per person and LKR 100 per tuk-tuk are payable. The views are spectacular. Photos of the sunrise. Photo with the figure of Mr. Lipton. There is a coffee machine where you have a tea for 100 LKR. And you appreciate it. Because it's cold. Take windbreakers or sweatshirt. Meet the driver at the Dambatenne Tea Factory and walk back between tea terraces. It's 8 km downhill. If you get your bearings right you can take some shortcuts to cross between the tea fields. If not, follow the road and there is no loss. You'll cross paths with women who go to work. They'll ask you to take a picture to give them some money. At the end you can visit the Dambatenne Tea Factory. And at the end, with the tuk-tuk return to Haputale.

This was one of the highlights of our tour. By Tuk Tuk the 16 kms up to Lipton seat felt precarious at times, with bumpy and narrow roads. But seeing the tea plantation covering every square inch was awe inspiring.We had a wonderful drivers who was quite funny and knowledgeable and whose English was very good.
6000 feet above sea level we were above clouds and the views were spectacular.
It was a Sunday so no one was working but people were going about their daily routine.

A recommended early morning walk to watch the sunrise over the mountains.
The light on the tea plantations is enchanting.
Going there by tuk-tuk almost to the top then making the descent to the factory on foot, crossing the plantations, the gathering villages that bustle in the early morning is worth the detour.
Meet children who join their school in uniform.
Allow a few pens or notebook to donate to the school you pass by can be a good thing for the locals too.

We went from Haputale on a scooter. Me, a 43 year old mum and 15 year old son on the back. I am not the best scooterdriver, but it was doable. Only the last bit between the ticket office and liptonseat was sometimes not very good road. But doable.
We started around 7 in Haputale, arrived around 8 on lipton seat. Because we where early, we had a very good view. We had breakfast in the cafe on top. Walked around and when we left at ten o clock it was cloudy. So make sure you go early.
Breakfast was cheap and good, with Lipton tea.
The way towards is nice to see the teapickers in action.
The way back we enjoyed driving in the clouds and smelling clouds and tea mixed together.
Absolutely worth it!

Beautiful drive through the tea plantation
As roads are small and broken at some places driving is dangerous.
Once you reach the mountain top it’s a beautiful view.
Three wheelers tuktuk are the best to drive there.
The tea shop isn’t hygienic, so better to avoid having tea from there
Buy vegetables and fresh fruits on the way.
Enjoy the drive

This was one of the nicest things we did on our fantastic holiday in Sri Lanka. We decided to organize a tuktuk to take us to the top to watch the sun rise and we had the most perfect weather with views for miles. It was a truly magical and quite emotional experience.
After tea at the little tea house at the top we walked down to the tea factory which, what with the lack of health and safety measures and the fact that nothing has changed there in probably 75 years, was the best factory tour that I have ever done. Lastly some time spent talking with a bunch of tea picking ladies who were very open and welcoming to us gave us further insight into their daily lives. Thoroughly well worth the crazy early start.

Had a super fun trip. Take a tuk tuk all the way up to the beautiful green surroundings of tea plantations. Women who had just come from the plantations had their bags weighed to see how much they had picked. Nice experience.

Unfortunately, the overcast weather did not allow us to enjoy the view but the atmosphere was nevertheless "mystical"! It's a place very exposed to the wind, fortunately there is a small shelter with the possibility of having tea (quite bad though). We went up there in a tuktuk for sunrise (missed) but we think it's worth the effort of waking up in the early morning. In addition, it is a good starting point for a magnificent walk through the plantations (the clouds have gradually left), even with overcast weather the atmosphere is cozy and relaxing. Take the opportunity to go to the Dambatenne factory.

Is it possible to reach liptons seat by a car(aqua)???
Skrevet 16. april 2019
yes, it's possible to reach the peak by car but the road to reach the top is very narrow and it takes a lot of time. much more easier the rent a tuc tuc. believe me, you will save a lot of time

I have been in Lipton's Seat 3 three times since 2014 and noticed only bus which goes to Bandaraeliya(Tamil Community) so had to get off at the crossroads. I took the right fork all the way up and paid a fee to pass the gate. Some told me that he experienced a bus that could drop him off at the pass gate. Have anyone of you seen the bus that can drop tourist at the gate?
Skrevet 6. februar 2019
Taking a tuk tuk from the base would be the efficient option.

Bonjour,
Pourriez-vous me dire combien de temps il faut pour faire la montée en TUK TUK
Merci

Bonjour,
Pouvez m'indiquer combien de temps dure la balade en Tuk Tuk sur le site Lipton's Tea.
A votre avis est'il possible de combiner un départ d'Ella, la visite du site et une arrivée à Uda Walawe le soir.
Merci
Yves

HI i would like to visit Lipton’s seat from Ella - I know this is doable but as a backpacker I can’t afford private taxi from Ella. The train gets into haputale at 7:40am (if on time) and then a tuktuk up to the view point. So my question is if I get this train // and tuk would I get to the top before the fog? Or is it fogged over by 8:30/9am?
Thanks!!
Skrevet 10. mai 2018
The bus leaves from the square about 300-400 m from the train station. No need to get a tuktuk. I got the bus at 9am from Haputale to Dambatenne which is about 10 kms and hiked the remaining 6 or 7 kms. Guess i reached Liptons Seat by noon and the view was still exceptional. The red bus only goes as far as Dambatenne but there are other smaller white buses that go all the way to Lipton's Seat. Not sure if they leave from exactly the same place as the red bus, but just ask when you get there. The buses leave about every 30 mins and cost 30-40 rps.

Bonjour Josiane,
Nous souhaiterions faire le trajet depuis Ella en scooter, comme vous l'avez fait. La route est-elle correcte ? Pas trop "dangereuse" ? Combien de temps cela vous a t-il pris au total (trajet aller/retour, ballade, etc ???). De plus, avez-vous des conseils ou des infos supplémentaires à nous communiquer pour le trajet en scooter depuis Ella ?
E,n vous remerciant,
Clélia

Bonjour David,
Nous souhaiterions faire le trajet de Ella a la fabrique de the en scooter tôt le matin, puis faire la dernière portion jusqu'au Lipton's Seat à pieds. Si vous avez fait le même trajet, pouvez-vous nous dire combien de temps vous avez mis et si la route est bonne tout le long depuis Ella ?
Si vous êtes partis depuis Haputale, la route pour monter Jusqu'à la fabrique de the est elle correcte ?
Bref, si vous avez d'autres infos pratiques à nous communiquer nous sommes preneurs.
Merci d'avance,
Mme Fatton

Oui, quand on voit les distances, ce n'est pas long sur le papier mais cela prend un peu de tps (en effet ~45min en tuk-tuk pour Haputale-Lipton seat, une petite demi-heure pour Haputale-Tea factory).
La route est goudronnée mais étroite, pas tjs très lisse et de nuit, quelques petits animaux traversent. Le trajet Ella/Haputale est sur une "autoroute" donc ca serpente pas trop mais ça devrait bien prendre 45min aussi (donc ~1h15 pour ella-fabrique de thé). Si en plus vous montez à pied jusqu'au lipton seat (1h30 en marchant bien je pense), il faudra vous lever tôt si vous voulez voir les premières lueurs du soleil la-haut !

Здравствуйте!
Какой ближайший населенный пункт от Lipton`s seat? Действительно ли прямо к смотровой площадке можно доехать на тук-туке (читала в и-нете отзыв, что идти надо пешком 7 км от чайной фабрики, транспорт туда не пропускают)? Нет ли ограничения по времени въезда на площадку (очень рано утром можно ли проехать и в послезакатное время)? С площадки лучше наблюдать восход или закат (бывает, что либо закат, либо восход не виден с точки. Я фотографирую, поэтому мне это важно). Сколько могут стоить услуги тук-тука?
