Two nights in Ooty and two in Wayanad with heritage-palace and resort stays, taking in Bandipur, Doddabetta Peak and the Edakkal Caves.
Welcomheritage Fernhills Royal Palace anchors the Ooty half of this four-night Nilgiri circuit, pairing the same hill sights with a step up to palace and resort accommodation before crossing to a rainforest resort in Wayanad. Day one opens at Bandipur and Pykara Waterfalls.
What's on the upgraded Nilgiri route
Ooty fills out with Coonoor, Lamb's Rock, Dolphin's Nose, Doddabetta Peak, Ooty Lake and the Tea Museum. Wayanad then delivers the Banasura Sagar Dam, the carvings at Edakkal Caves, the Wayanad Heritage Museum and Pookode Lake, all from a resort base.
Who this tour is for
Four nights with breakfast daily, 5-star and 3-star stays, airport pickup and drop and four activities. For couples and families who want the Ooty-Wayanad loop with notably better rooms.
