Why you need to road trip Sri Lanka!

- The road trip continues! We are setting off in Mirissa with the goal of traveling to Ella, Sri Lanka. Ella is easily one of the most beautiful places in Sri Lanka to travel, and the road to Ella made us more and more excited with every passing kilometer. The scenery changed drastically as we move from coastal beaches and palm trees in Mirissa and Hiriketiya Beach, to the rolling hills and tea plantations that Ella is so famous for.
If you are traveling in Sri Lanka, we could not recommend renting a scooter for the journey more highly! Seeing the scenery from a car or train is one thing, but feeling the wind in your hair and smelling everything (good and bad) that passed by is a much more immersive experience. Not to mention you can stop at beautiful places along the way! Although the journey from Mirissa to Ella is only 100 miles/170 kilometers, we broke the drive into 2 days because two people on one scooter with everything we own is kind of a lot. Sore butts are no joke on these long travel days. We chose to spend a night near Tissamaharama, which is actually where most people stay if they are going on a safari in Yala National Park. We opted not to do this and hope you watch the video to hear why we made this choice, despite the fact that it sounds fun and exciting!
If you are wondering how to get to Ella, Sri Lanka, definitely five the video a watch to see what the journey is like on a scooter! Traveling to Ella is so beautiful and at the end of the journey, you are rewarded by arriving in one of the best places in Sri Lanka to travel; Ella! We can't wait to explore this town and share our adventures with you :)

======================
Hey there! We are Nicole and Mico and in March 2021, we quit our jobs, sold our belongings, and began traveling the world! We never thought we'd be making travel vlogs on CZcams, but after realizing that we had a unique opportunity to share our adventure and make the world feel more familiar and inviting to anyone watching, we took the leap and picked up the camera! We hope our videos show how wonderful, delicious, and friendly the world can be.
Absolutely top class videos, you guys are so professional. I have seen a quite a few vlogs but your contents are so beautiful.
Glad you like them! We're excited to share more!

Wow .very beautiful .amazing drone shots .enjoy ur stay in sri lanka
Thank you!
Great road trip video highlighting the beauty of the island. I think that cop van which came too close for comfort, was being driven by the helpful policeman from two videos ago. He just wanted to thank you for making him famous or should that be infamous.
That’s a beautiful road up to Ella.
Absolutely stunning. We love that drive 😍
You guys are awesome! That pizza looked delicious. Funny, no matter where we're travelling in the world, even in places with amazing food that we've never tried before, we often end up ordering a pizza on at least one occasion.
Really lovely. One thing is "doggy bag" is not a good idea unless the food can be stored below 5 degrees Celsius. In Sri Lanka the temperature is way above that
So true! Pizza is just amazingly universal!
No worries we ate it very quickly after haha
cool drone shots. Awesome ❤
wow wonderful video guys thank you

Man I should travel my country!
It's incredibly beautiful!
How are you able to show both of you from outside while you are driving your motorcycle? It seems like someone is driving right next to you or a drone is right above you? An incredible special effect!
360° camera. yoy can see the shadow of her holding the stick sometimes.
focussing perfectly all the time using the "insta X3" 360 camera which also can remove the selfie stick through post production.
Hey there we use a 360 camera to get the cool shots. We find them to be very unique! The camera is on a selfie stick that is digitally removed by the camera so it looks like it's floating.
Yes!
you are so funny and happy.............
Thanks for watching! ☺
Feel free to tell me if im wrong but i believe the national park is broken into many sectors and visitors are allowed into only few sectors. so animals could retreat back into them and live freely
Yes I think that's correct but we heard that when an elephant or leopard is found, MANY jeeps crowd the animals immediately. We think it's okay to watch the animals, but the number of jeeps should be less to manage the load on the animals.
🌚❤🇱🇰
Do you need a license for the scooter? Do you have a license or not?
When is the best time to visit?
For beach destinations, the south coast is best from Oct to Apr. Otherwise you will will want to visit the east coast (Arugam Bay). Central Sri Lanka is great for visiting all year round!
Police almost killed me too mate 🤣
Haha they were so close to hitting us I don't think they even knew!
@@nicoleandmico for them to notice something, pulling out that 1 grand note is mandatory :')
U Guys are super cute🥹♥️
