Ultimate private Munnar tour making the most of a short stay - We booked the Green Magic Day Tour to Munnar on very short notice with Stanley Wilson and were able to arrange custom pickup without any trouble, all communication was very clear. We were picked up by Ubaid who was the lovely driver who took just the 2 of us all the way to Munnar and back in this completely private tour. He is a very good driver and made sure everything was taken care off so that you have a completely relaxed day without any worries or hassle. He is a very considerate driven and always made sure the drive was comfortable and the AC was always at a nice temperature. He even stopped at places when we wanted to take photos (when possible) that weren't official stops. Our first stop was breakfast were received various delicious choices of traditional South Indian breakfast and great coffee. Our second stop was the waterfall that was going at full force due to the fresh overnight rain from monsoon season. We got some great pictures. Shortly after we stopped at the spice garden and learned much about the cultivation and benefits of all the herbs that grow natively in the area. It was amazing to see the live plants that we would otherwise only see dried in our own kitchen. We continued our way to Munnar were we met up with Ramesh at the entrance of the tea plantation for a 3 hour walk with just the 3 of us. With a risk of rain umbrellas we're provided together with bottles of water. Ramesh is very knowledgeable and funny, he was able to tell a lot about the local flora and fauna and everything about the tea plantation. He surprised us with a delicious home made spiced tea and lunch in the middle of the plantation. This tour feels very exclusive, Ramesh made sure we got to see the things we wanted to see and for the 3 hours we didn't see anyone else, it was very serene. While we didn't see any wildlife, he was able to point out many tracks and traces of animals we just missed. We got to see amazing views for the short amount of time that we had. After this we went to the Tea museum, the documentary about the history of Munnar and the tour about the harvesting and the production of tea which was a perfect follow up on Ramesh his tour. We finished with getting a lot of tea from the gift shop. At the end of the day on our way back to Kochi we made one last stop at a lovely small tea and coffee shop for some coffee and snacks. We would like to thank Stanley, Ubaid and Ramesh for making sure that in our short vacation we could still experience the most of Munnar, completely taking care of everything so you can enjoy the whole day stress and hassle free. This is definitely a tour we would recommend to anyone wanting to see Munnar from Kochi.

Munnar trek - Ramesh was a fantastic guide for our trek through Munnar’s hilly tea plantations. He was equipped with much-needed rain ponchos, and surprised us with tea and a snack at the summit, where we were thrilled and fortunate to spot a wild elephant! Driver Ubaid safely and expertly navigated the winding roads of the region, pointing out waterfalls and stopping at spectacular view points.

Definitely worth the money - I wholeheartedly recommend this tour. Ubaid was a great driver and very courteous during the whole trip. Ramesh showed me the tea plantations and gave lots of information about tea and Munnar in general. Be advised that the hike up the mountain is steep. But the view is definitely worth it.

24 hours in Munnar - What an incredible experience! We were lucky enough to have Firoz as our driver who couldn’t be kinder and went out of his way to show us all the best sights. We did our sunrise hike with Ramesh who, again, could not have been a more lovely guide. The scenery was absolutely amazing, made even better by the people we met along the way.

Great Way to see Munnar from Cochin - I had a great day with Stanley Wilson organizing the tour. The day started early at 6:00 AM. Sajahan, the driver was nice and accommodating, getting to all the tour stops in time. The tour included seeing ayurveda garden, visiting tea factory and hiking through a tea plantation with the guide, Ramesh. Overall I had a great time. I highly recommend this as a one day tour to go see the beauty of Munnar.

Fantastic experience in... - Fantastic experience in Munnar. Driver arrived on time as arrange and was friendly. It's quite a long trip from kochi to Munnar but we took regular breaks to see various sights and the car was comfortable. The trek (and guide) was a great experience, as was the tea factory & museum. Thankyou so much.

One of the best experiences in my life - We went on the Munnar two days one night trip, and it was a fantastic experience!!!!! We saw the Ayurveda/spice farm, tea plantage and went trekking. First and foremost, Anwar, our driver, was VERY punctual and incredibly kind with impressive skills in the Indian traffic - we never felt unsafe. He also made sure to stop on the way to capture some very beautiful pictures, which made the long drive very comfortable. Thank you for your patience, and thank you for an unforgettable experience 👟🍍 Second, Ramish, our trekking guide, was so informative. He took time to explain things about plants, animal footprints on the way and he made always sure that we had a good time. He brought a Munnar-bun and some cinnamon tea to the sunrise spot, which was so enjoyable. We went on the early morning trekking and it can DEFINITELY be recommended!!!! WAUW the light. !! And last - A BIG THANK YOU to STANLEY WILSON!!! So nice to chat to you and thank you for making sure everything was well organized!!! Everything from the visits to the tea plantage, spice farm, restaurants, overnight stays and to your employees. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kochi!!!!! If you don’t book through here, you will regret it your whole life !!!

We enjoyed the tea... - We enjoyed the tea plantation enormously. Also, our driver was very willing to change the itinerary to fit our preferences (e.g., we stopped at the chocolate factory). The only issue is the driving. Munnar is a long way from Kochi and there is endless (fast) traffic.
