You get the first hand experience of life in one of the tea plantation village around Munnar. You get to see the tea plantations, vegetable farms and houses built since the time of British. You will be taken to see the life of the villagers, who are mostly tea plantation workers, who have been residing in the Line houses provided by the company. Most of the present day workers have been a part of the family legacy as tea pickers, with the job handed down to 2nd or 3rd generations from the time of British. You get an insight into their working conditions and lifestyle by interacting with them with the help of our guide, over a cup of tea. Often you may even get to see them at work in the plantations.
