Frequently asked questions
Everything you might want to know before booking this weekend trip.
How do I book toy train tickets?
Nilgiri Mountain Railway tickets sell out fast in season. We assist with online booking but recommend booking 30–60 days ahead.
Is Ooty crowded during summer holidays?
Yes. April–June and December are peak seasons with heavy tourist traffic. Book hotels well in advance for these dates.
Can we visit Coonoor and Kodaikanal too?
Coonoor is close and easily combined. Kodaikanal is a longer drive — we recommend a separate 3-day extension for it.
Do we need warm clothing?
Yes. Nights get cold (10–15°C) even in summer. Carry a light jacket year-round and full winter wear from Nov–Feb.
Are there activities for kids?
Ooty Lake boating, toy train ride, chocolate factory tours and the deer park are all family/kid-friendly.
