For travelers preferring a shorter trip, consider focusing solely on Kerala’s hill stations (Munnar and Coorg) to soak in nature and tea plantations. Those wanting to extend the itinerary can add a visit to Uttarakhand’s hill stations like Mussoorie or Nainital for a combined North-South India monsoon experience.
