Highly recommend the tea tour on the property & Meena Amma’s experience, it’s very well done! CAUTION: The dirt road leading to the property is quite dangerous! An extremely experienced driver is needed. The area can get very foggy & it’s difficult to see the roads. I would recommend Jetwing to tell guests to meet them...
