X-MAS SPL – OOTY & COONOOR with ISHA Foundation Visit

OOTY – XMAS & NYE TIMES

• Best time to book Ooty is non-holiday weeks — you get it at 11,999 and the trip feels peaceful.

• During Christmas & New Year, Ooty becomes one of the most demanded places in South India.

• Expect heavy traffic, late-night check-ins, and tired rides during peak season.

• 12,999 from Hyderabad is not HTC increasing prices — it’s the natural hike in stays and transport during this period.

• So don’t say “I paid 12,999 and still waited for hours” — that’s exactly how Ooty works in peak season.

• Want a calm Ooty experience? Go non-holiday.

• Toy Train tickets will not be available on long weekends & yes, we don’t book or promise fake tickets.

• If you choose Christmas/NYE, understand what you’re signing up for.

• Has HTC done Ooty in this time?
  Yes. For years.

• Is it a super-hit trip in peak season?
  No. It’s a satisfactory event because of the crowds, not because of our planning.

ABOUT THE PLACE :

• Ooty :

Ooty, once the summer capital of Madras Presidency under the British, can be safely regarded as “India’s Switzerland”. John Sullivan, the then collector of Coimbatore had noted the same in his elaborate report on the region, way back in the 19th century. After independence, Ooty was developed into a major tourist destination and understandably so, given its qualification for the same, owing to nature’s abundant blessings in terms of climate, scenic splendour, local sights and sounds, its wealth of birds and beasts and of course its homegrown beverages of tea and coffee.

• Coonoor :

Coonoor is a hill station in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It’s known for its tea estates in the surrounding Nilgiri hills. Sim’s Park is a sprawling public garden with plants like rhododendrons, roses and eucalyptus trees. The steam Nilgiri Mountain Railway travels between the towns of Mettupalayam and Ooty via Coonoor. Dolphin’s Nose is a vantage point with views of the cascading Catherine Falls.

IMP –
Remember Luxury and Experience wont be together! This is a experience based event in which we will cover maximum Places in limited time! be prepare for a bit long travel as we must travel to the places where they are 😉 

Important

For travel, we book Private Travels or KSRTC buses based on reliability and past experience. But at the end of the day, buses are machines — delays and breakdowns can happen, and they’re outside our control.

We always try to choose the best available option, but if you’re particular about bus type or comfort, you can book your own travel to Mysore without depending on HTC.

If a breakdown happens, any refund from the operator will be returned to you only after HTC receives it.
And to be clear: HTC will not bear any additional expenses that occur due to breakdowns or delays (like alternate bus, taxi, hotel, food, etc.). Those costs, if any, must be handled directly by participants.

We believe transparency matters more than fancy promises — it’s better you know how it works upfront rather than feel surprised later.
