Itineraries
Day 1
Bangalore – Ooty
Morning meet with our representative and drive to Ooty, via Srirangapatnam, Mysore, Bandipur National Park, Mudumalai National Park.
Ooty – well famous as the "Queen of hill stations" is the capital of Nilgiris district. Ooty is one of the most popular tourist resorts and picturesque picnic spots in India and situated at an altitude of 2240 mt. Earlier it was used to be popular summer and weekend getaway for the Britishers during the colonial days. An added attraction for the tourists to Ooty is the mountain train journey on a ratchet and pinion track which commences from Kallar, near Mettupalayam and wends its way through many hair-raising curves and fearful tunnels and chugs along beside deep ravines full of verdant vegetation, gurgling streams and tea gardens.
Upon reaching at Ooty check into the hotel. Enjoy the remaining day at leisure. Overnight stay at hotel.
