Eleven days, four hill stations and two nights in every one of them. This is the South India itinerary for travellers who have decided not to be hurried — Coorg, Wayanad, Ooty and Kodaikanal in a single unbroken arc through the Western Ghats.
All South India departures run in an air-conditioned private vehicle sized to your group, across four accommodation categories. Arrival is at Bangalore airport, with departure from either Madurai or Coimbatore. On a route of this length the per-head saving from travelling as a larger group is considerable.
