This is my first post on mouth shut and m excited to tell you all about my trip to Munnar. . . :)
I started my trip at 6.30 am (was planned at 6) with my family (my wife and 2 naughty kids) and 2 other families by road and drove 1200kms (up & down) in the trip.
We had lots of ups and downs with respect to food... I strongly suggest people to carry their own stuff (bread, jam, butter...etc) while traveling to Tamil Nadu or Kerala as this route is big zero for food lovers who wants to try something else or local cousin.
The place (Munnar) is awesome with full of greenery and endless Tea gardens... we booked "Ayur County" resort in Chinnar (about 16kms from Munnar) and stay was pleasant with good rooms..
But, again we were very very disappointed with the FOOD... it was horrible and there was no other place near by to try as an alternate. As I mentioned, Chinnar is 16kms from Munnar and for dinner no one was ready to travel 1.5 hrs. !!!
The local sightseeing is good and can be explored further if you get time...but we had little disappointment here as well as the Goat Park was closed due to breading season and Elephant Park was very very expensive to go for....rest all places are good.
We enjoyed the drive on TN highways as they are well maintained and very less traffic.
Ill try to post some nice pics (taken by me) during my visit and will try to continue sharing such information going forward. For now, Im done... :)
Have fun and drive safely.
