Useful Tips

While planning a bachelor party, it's essential to have backup plans since the opening and closing times of most activities and places change from time to time. So, do in-depth research before the start of the trip. Munnar is located in the Western Ghats, so the weather can change rather quickly, especially in the monsoon season. Therefore, remember to bring adequate clothing and also mosquito repellent. You can add the Tea garden and the Anamudi Peak to the itinerary if you have more time to spare. However, subtraction can be done if the distance from Ponneri to Munnar is more extended than expected, deleting or modifying one of the activities mentioned on day 1 as both can be quite time-consuming.
