Start your adventure by trekking in Kolukkumalai, one of the highest tea estates in the world, located at an altitude of about 7,900 ft. You can reach the base camp through a jeep safari and then trek to the tea plantations for a breathtaking view of the sunrise. The tea from here is also known for its unique flavor.
Experience the thrill of rafting in the Periyar River surrounded by lush forests and exotic wildlife. The bamboo rafting activity starts early in the morning and takes you through the calm waters of the river while you can watch the beautiful surroundings. The park is also known for its tigers, elephants, and rare bird species.
End your adventure with a kayaking experience in the serene backwaters of Alleppey. Paddle through the narrow canals surrounded by coconut palms and small villages while you get to experience the local life up close. You can also witness the famous traditional houseboats while kayaking.
If you have more time, you can add a visit to the Munnar Tea Museum to learn more about the history and production of tea in the region. Alternatively, you can also visit the Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary or experience the famous snake boat race in Alleppey during the monsoon season. If you have less time, you can skip the bamboo rafting activity and spend more time exploring the nearby towns and villages.
