Information About Vagamon

Also known as Scotland of Asia, Vagamon is an iconic destination that is slowly emerging on top of the bucket list of every traveler. Hidden in the Idukki district of Kerala, this city is one gem of a destination. The lush green terrains, mesmerizing forest-clad hills, calmness in the air, and fragrant tea plantations combine to form this gorgeous city of Vagamon. Vagamon showcases an enchanting amalgamation of natural marvels and thrilling escapades. The city allows travelers to take part in various adventure sports like paragliding, trekking, camping, rock climbing, cycling, and many other activities. Find below some basic essential information that one should keep in mind when traveling to the city of green foliage.

Climate In Vagamon

By virtue of its establishment on a high altitude, the city experiences tropical-like climatic conditions. Weather in Vagamon is extremely pleasant and welcoming throughout the year. Although, it is advised to avoid the city during extreme monsoons as the heavy rainfall makes it difficult to travel around the city. Like any other high-altitude hill station, Vagamon is also prone to landslides when an extreme monsoon hits the city. Before planning for any adventure activities like trekking or camping, it is always better to check the weather conditions beforehand. Weather patterns can sometimes be unpredictable. One should definitely carry rainfall essentials including waterproof bag, raincoats, umbrellas, and all the other necessary items.

Dry seasons are the best months to visit the city and witness the flourishing flora of Vagamon. March to May are the summer months and experience pleasing warm weather with a cool breeze. Carrying linen clothing or other light materials is sufficient during these months. While October to February are a bit colder months and the temperature might drop to zero degrees Celsius when extreme winters prevail. It is recommended that travelers should carry heavy winter clothing if traveling during the winter season.

Places To Stay In Vagamon

The rising fame of Vagamon has led to an increasing number of accommodations in the city. Ranging from luxurious hotels and hostels to budget stays and B&B’s, there is no dearth of places to stay in Vagamon. This city caters to all kinds of travelers, irrespective of their budgets. The accommodations in Vagamon are all surrounded by lush greens and mesmerizing forest-clad hills. The focal point of the stays remains that guests get to experience the utmost comfort and convenience when traveling to the city. Waking up to the most surreal views with a silent and peaceful atmosphere helps travelers to rejuvenate and relax. These hotels in Vagamon provides a perfect place to escape the busy, monotonous schedules and embrace the nature at its best. It is better to make your reservations beforehand in order to avoid any hassles on reaching the city.

Festival In Vagamon

Away from the city’s culture, sitting happily in the arms of nature, Vagamon city is heavenly for the nature lovers and adventure enthusiasts alike. Being one of the few hill stations in India and the only hill station in Kerala to introduce paragliding, Vagamon exhibits a magical blend of nature and thrill. Jointly organized by Kerala tourism and the Adventure Sports and Sustainable Tourism Academy (AASTA), International Paragliding Festival is hosted in Vagamon every year. Paragliding pilots from various parts of the world participate in this adventuresome event. Vagamon is considered as one of the most potential places for paragliding by virtue of flat grasslands, low hills, and rugged terrain. Paragliding in Vagamon attracts flocks of tourists during the peak season when weather conditions are favorable for flying high in the sky.

    Vishwas's 5 days trip to Vagamon

    The stays booked was very good, but the driver insisted us to book jeeps through his contacts only which were very expensive and also took to places which can be skipped.

    Jehangir's 7 days trip to Vagamon

    Our travel agent was good but I had a heart breaking experience as the vehicle at the airport pickup was not what was asked for so I had to arrange one myself with additional waste of time in acquiring it and paying extra for the same. After reaching the hotel I had to let the vehicle go and was wit
    hout one till late next morning. Fortunately the agent arranged for the appropriate vehicle and I could save the trip. I have not be reimbursed for the extra expenses even after sharing all payment details. So in a way yes I was extremely dejected till all became well. I still am as I have not been reimbursed The place and sightseeing was wonderful

    We had a tour of 6 Nights to Kerala. The tour organiser Mr.Renjith from 7Cdestinations is an excellent person who arranged my Tour. All the hotel stay and cab arranged by him was excellent. The cab driver Mr Sandeep was also very polite and cooperative. We had a hastle free trip and at a very rea
    sonable rate.

    Parveen Goel

    Parveen's 10 days trip to Vagamon

    We had a great trip to Kerala. The hotels had been booked properly. The hotels were nice in general. The Kochi hotel could do with some minor but very important maintenance. Gave us the feeling that it is mostly unoccupied. Alleppy UDS was really nice. UDS hotels in Trivandrum and Kovlam were als
    o nice even though the Kovlam hotel rooms were of lower than expected category. Buying the entrance tickets for most places were a somewhat painful experience because of long queues despite paying high or fast queue prices. 4 hour Houseboat experience in Alleppy was a bit disappointing . It was probably much better than a full day houseboat experience. I believe a Shikara boat for a few hours could have been a better experience. The Travel agent did not book the Pariyar Tiger Reserve tickets for boat ride in advance as per the deal. Finally we decided to give it a miss. The agent did however offer us the refund of the cost for that. Munnar gave us a real hill station feeling. The Aranyaka resort was very nice. Our room had great views. We could have spent some more days there.

    Mirza Fadiano

    Kanpur

    Mirza's 5 days trip to Vagamon

    It was my first visit to kerela and after research I chose to go with 7C Destination. The whole trip went smooth and the driver was very kind. He very well took care of our requirements and took us to all the points and gave us enough time to enjoy and rejuvenate at different points. My agent Ranjit
    h kept in touch all the times right from planning my itinerary to accomodating my adhoc requests and was very prompt at replying. Me and my wife are very happy with our trip to Kerela. It was a wholesome experience in the God's own country. Allepey house boat was a much delightful experience and unique in its own way. I will remember this experience for the rest of my life. It's a must do for all visiting kerela

    Mcgregornick

    Bangalore

    Mcgregornick's 4 days trip to Vagamon

    Our 4 day tour of Kerala was pretty good. The tour is very prepackaged with the driver taking you to the sites he thinks you’ll want to see (the same ones everyone else is sent to see) so it doesn’t suit individuals looking to get off the beaten track. For example, we stopped at the same waterfalls
    as everyone else, went to the same tea museum and national park as everyone else and were scheduled to go to the same dam as everyone else (we opted out). There is no asking you what you want to do or getting to know your preferences; you are treated as just another uneducated tourist to fleece. Our driver was courteous but initially used his phone a lot while driving (videos, talking and texting) but stopped after I asked him to. Our private Alleppey houseboat was clean and beautiful but the cruising part itself was disappointing. We were only underway for a total of 3 hours out of our 20+ hours on board, meaning we were docked for 15 hours, tied up to shore. You get dropped off at the boat, cruise for 30 minutes to a small shop downriver, get the hard sell on some prawns (2000 rupees a kilo), cruise for 30 more minutes, tie up at shore, eat lunch (very tasty), crew naps, after 1.5 hours stopped, you start to cruise onto the main body of the lake, cruise for 2 hours in what is ultimately a loop and return to the exact place you boarded the boat. You tie up and sit there until 9 am the next morning, despite our itinerary clearly saying we were to cruise from 8-9 am. The boat is cool but, again, you feel like you’re getting cheated out of the 5 hours of cruising you are promised. Also, when you see 50 other boats right next to you doing the exact same thing, it takes away from the experience. Being docked on shore for the vast majority of the trip, you wonder what’s the point of getting a houseboat? Hotels in the area are much cheaper and with a day cruise, you would get to see the same things we saw. The company rep did not often respond to my messages during the trip, instead choosing to ignore rather than help solve issues. Overall, Travel unbounded isn’t bad but they aren’t great either; you leave with a lackluster vacation experience.

    Prasanth Sikakollu

    Bangalore

    Prasanth's 4 days trip to Vagamon

    The entire trip is smooth and the driver is friendly with us. The hotel at Munnar is very good at nice locality and ambience. The hotel at Thekkady is the worst one, did not offer complimentary breakfast and dinner, and the facilities are not good. It is more like a lodge and does not deserve to be
    a 3-star hotel. The houseboat at Alleppey is the best of all the experiences we had. Houseboat at Alleppey and the morning jeep safari at Munnar are the best memories of the trip.
