Nilgiris are still greener than any other hills
Book early in season is cliche but esp during may when flower and dog shows are arranged and vacations in schools.Post Diwali is the best season.Go from Coimbatore or bangalore as per your option.Have your own vehicle is the best choice,then stay as much away from crowded areas as you can.
