    You don’t need to plan ahead for this—we went to where the taxi’s line up right in the heart of ella and asked their price. Originally they wanted $52, we settled on $40 for there/back with tea factory and lipton’s seat. Beware, the factory is about 1000rs per person and so is access to lipton’s seat.
