Munnar - Tea Program
Munnar - Tea Program
Munnar is better known as the Tea Land. With tens of thousands of acres of sprawling tea plantations, Munnar delights its visitors with its lush greenery all around. This guided walking trail through tea plantations is your chance to experience Munnar’s breathtaking environs.
You will be guided along the narrow pathways inside the tea plantations where you come across the tea workers who are busy plucking out the best tea leaves which end up in your tea cup. Our expert plantation guide will educate you on the different species of tea grown here, how each one is cultivated, how the different climatic conditions affect its flavour and finally how it is processed into fine tea powder.
After you finish an entertaining session of this plantation walk you will be directed to the Lockhart Tea Factory, a British-built factory which still uses traditional tea processing methods. Here you will witness and be introduced to the various processes the tea leaves undergo and the machinery used for the same.
Later you will have an exclusive Tea Tasting session when you get to taste the different varieties of Tea grown here. You will also be told about the medicinal value of tea and how a good cup of tea must be prepared, which most of us are unaware of.
If you ever happen to visit Munnar and moreover if you are a tea lover, this exclusive Tea program must be on your bucket list.
