Everything you need to know about our Kodaikanal tours and trip planning

The best time to visit Kodaikanal is from October to March when the weather is pleasant. Summer (March-May) offers clear skies, while monsoon (June-September) showcases lush greenery but may have occasional rain.

We recommend 2-3 days to explore Kodaikanal comfortably. This allows time to visit major attractions, enjoy activities, and experience the local culture. However, we offer flexible itineraries from 1-5 days based on your preferences.

We use well-maintained 4x4 jeeps suitable for hill terrain. Our vehicles are regularly serviced and equipped with safety features. For larger groups, we can arrange multiple vehicles or customize transport options.

Our standard packages include transportation, experienced guide, entry fees to attractions, and basic refreshments. Accommodation and meals can be included based on the package you choose. Custom packages are available to suit your needs.

Yes, our tours are family-friendly! We can customize the itinerary to include child-friendly activities and ensure comfortable pacing. We also provide safety equipment and take extra precautions for families with young children.
