A Munnar Thekkady tour package is the best way to explore both destinations seamlessly.

Choosing a Munnar Thekkady tour package by car allows you to travel at your own pace, stop for scenic photography, and enjoy every curve of the winding hill roads. The journey from Munnar to Thekkady (approximately 90–100 km) takes around 3–4 hours by road, but the views along the way make it a highlight of the trip.
