A hell of an experience travelling with Tripper trails.I enjoyed every bit of it. I went solo and met some amazing people on the trip.The trip captain, Amit is a nice guy and he makes sure you have a memorable and fun trip. He is also flexible in changing the itinerary a bit if all the travellers agree to it. I have travelled with them twice already and looking for more fun trips. Kudos to the team.

Munnar Backpacking trip

Munnar, nestled in the Western Ghats of Kerala, is a loved paradise for adventure seekers, honeymooners and nature lovers, alike. With its lush green tea plantations, rolling hills, mist-covered valleys, and pleasant climate, Munnar is a much-loved retreat among people in South India. Whether you are planning a family vacation, a romantic getaway, or a solo retreat, a Munnar trip will leave you enchanted.

The town is surrounded by vast stretches of tea plantations, making it one of the largest tea-growing regions in South India. The scent of fresh tea leaves, the cool breeze, and the occasional sight of Nilgiri Tahr (a rare mountain goat), often sighted in the Eravikulam National Park add to the charm of the place. Moreover, this park is home to the very rare and famous Neelakurinji flowers, which bloom once every 12 years, painting the hills in a mesmerizing shade of blue. Mattupetty Dam, Kundala Lake, and Attukal Waterfalls further enhance the scenic beauty of Munnar, making it a dream destination for travellers. With our Munnar tour package, you will be witnessing all of these marvels while having the best time at the township.
