Coorg is a short drive from Bangalore or Mysore: coffee blossom, paddy fields and Kodava food. Stay on an estate rather than only in Madikeri town.

Plantation mornings in Kodagu

Abbey Falls, Raja’s Seat sunset, Dubare elephants (choose ethical operators) and Talacauvery are the usual circuit. Monsoon is lush; winter is clearer for views.

Taste pandi curry, kadambuttu and filter coffee. Rain gear is essential from June to September.

PP Tour pairs Coorg with Mysore Palace or Chikmagalur for a Karnataka hills circuit.

Quick tips

• Avoid peak long weekends on estate roads
• Leeches in monsoon—wear socks
• Book estate stays with heaters in winter
