Build a route around your chosen places
Munnar, Thekkady–Kumily, Vagamon and Idukki–Cheruthoni are separate hill-road bases. Choose one area for each sightseeing day and make moving between bases a travel day. A viewpoint, park session or estate activity should fit that route rather than determine a rushed arrival.
Choose your main outing before booking a room or driver. Open each place guide for its visitor entrance and access arrangements, then group the stops that use the same approach road.
