Choose your dates, compare live flights and hotels, then add or remove stops and experiences in your draft.
Escape to the cool heights of the Nilgiri Hills on this scenic mountain retreat. Starting with a drive from Bengaluru, you will explore the colourful botanical and rose gardens of Ooty, take in sweeping views from Doddabetta Peak, and cruise along the tranquil waters of Pykara Lake before admiring its cascading waterfalls.
Your journey continues aboard the historic Nilgiri Mountain Railway toy train to Coonoor. Here, you will take in dramatic vistas at Ketti Valley, Lamb's Rock, and Dolphin's Nose, stroll through Sim's Park, and tour the Highfield Tea Factory before returning to Bengaluru.
Your days, your way
Start with this itinerary. In your draft, change the stops, stays and activities to suit your holiday.
OotyDay 1 · Ooty
Meet your driver at Bengaluru Airport for the drive up into the Nilgiri Hills. A very early airport arrival is essential to complete the journey and enjoy the day. Arrive in Ooty, check in, and take time to freshen up. Actual road conditions and timing will dictate the afternoon schedule. Afterwards, visit a local tea garden to learn about tea-making, followed by a boat ride on Ooty Lake. Visiting the Tea Museum is an optional extra if time and opening hours permit. You can spend the evening exploring local shops or taking a gentle walk. Stay overnight in Ooty.
Meals not included
OotyDay 2 · Ooty
Start early to visit the Government Botanical Garden and the Government Rose Garden, followed by a drive up to Doddabetta Peak for sweeping views across the hills. Continue to Pykara Lake for an included boat ride on its calm waters, then walk down to view Pykara Waterfalls. Special floral displays depend on local event schedules, while views and waterfall flow depend on weather conditions. Return to Ooty for your second night.
Meals not included
OotyDay 3 · Ooty
Select the morning Nilgiri Mountain Railway toy train for the scenic ride on the Ooty-to-Coonoor sector, rather than the extended route to Mettupalayam. In Coonoor, visit the panoramic Ketti Valley Viewpoint, stroll through the terraced grounds of Sim's Park, and admire the views from Lamb's Rock. Head to Dolphin's Nose to view Catherine Falls cascading across the valley, visibility permitting. Include a guided tour of Highfield Tea Factory to observe tea processing. Drive back to Ooty for your final night.
Meals not included
OotyDay 4 · Ooty
Enjoy breakfast at your hotel before checking out to begin the return road trip to Bengaluru Airport, with no Bengaluru-city stop planned. The drive winds back down the hill roads and forest reserves, so booking a suitably late onward flight is essential to allow adequate travel and check-in time. Arrive at the airport to board your flight home.
