About this journey

This road trip links three very different places in a week: the royal city of Mysuru, the coffee hills of Coorg (Kodagu) and the forests of Wayanad in Kerala. Drives are short, the stays are relaxed, and the week ends with a safari in one of South India’s great elephant landscapes.
