Experiences To Watch Out

From trout fishing on the estate, hot air balloon rides, rounds of golf, or a visit to the tea factories and the Tata Tea Museum, guests can immerse themselves in the local culture. The cuisine at the bungalows reflect Kerala, Tamil and British influences through traditional family recipes passed down generations. A scenic drive from Kochi or a helicopter ride to the exclusive helipads located on the estate, the ama bungalows in Munnar is the ideal holiday destination for family, nature lovers and adventure seekers.
