Start the day early with a visit to the Kanan Devan Hills Plantations Company. Walkthrough the green tea plantations while learning the history and process of tea-making. Be ready for stunning views, fresh air, and a caffeine boost. Afterward, head to the nearby Munnar Tea Museum. Discover the evolution of tea production and brewing techniques used over the years. The museum also has a beautiful tea garden and café to relax and enjoy a cup of tea after the tour.
Take a jeep ride through the unexplored and rugged terrain of Munnar's hill station in an off-road jeep safari. Enjoy the scenic beauty of the Western Ghats, gushing waterfalls, and fascinating wildlife along the way. Take an exciting pitstop at Kolukkumalai Tea Estate. It is the world's highest organic tea plantation and offers a magnificent view of the valley below. Return to Munnar town, freshen up, and head to the Terrace Greens for dinner. It is a rooftop restaurant with live music, delicious food, and a beautiful view of the valley.
If you have more time, visit Eravikulam National Park, home to the endangered Nilgiri Tahr, and enjoy a trek through the lush green forests. For an adrenaline rush, try paragliding and zip-lining at the Adventure Park. Visitors are strongly recommended to book these activities in advance. Those with less time can skip the museum and spend extra time at the plantation or swap the jeep safari with a bike ride through the hills.
