About This Experience

Tea Estate Tours

The rolling green carpets of tea that define the Vagamon landscape are not just beautiful — they are a living heritage. Our guided tea estate tours take you deep into the heart of these pristine gardens, where you'll witness the rhythmic art of tea leaf plucking, learn about the cultivation process and discover what makes Kerala tea some of the finest in the world.

A visit to the local processing facility reveals the full journey from leaf to cup — withering, rolling, oxidising, drying and sorting — a process that has changed little in over a century. The tour ends with a freshly brewed cup of estate tea, sipped at the source.
