Five days across the Nilgiris.

    Day 1
    Coimbatore — Ooty

    Arrival & first taste of the Nilgiris

    On arrival at Coimbatore, you'll be picked up from the airport or railway station and driven up into the Nilgiris to Ooty. Check into your hotel on arrival.

    Later, set out for Ooty sightseeing. The Ooty Rose Garden — home to more than 20,000 varieties of roses — belongs to an elite club of 35 rose gardens worldwide honoured with the Garden of Excellence Award for South Asia.

    Continue to Ooty Lake, an artificial lake built in 1825 by John Sullivan. Walk the well-laid footpath around the water or take a boat out onto it. Overnight stay at the hotel.

    Day 2
    Ooty & Coonoor

    Tea gardens & the Dolphin's Nose

    After breakfast, drive down to Coonoor — about 20 km from Ooty and one of the largest hill stations in the Nilgiris, set at 1,850 m above sea level.

    Explore Sim's Park, a botanical garden established in 1874 with more than 1,000 species of flora including Queensland Karry Pine and the Rudraksha bead tree. Continue to Lamb's Rock (Echo Rock) for a sweeping view over the Coimbatore Plains, then on to Dolphin's Nose for an enchanting view of the Nilgiris and Catherine Falls.

    End the day with a walk through Coonoor's celebrated tea gardens — lush green slopes and the refreshing aroma of tea in the air. Overnight stay at the hotel.
