We head out on the scenic NH75, with a breakfast stop at Kamat – try the crispy vada and filter coffee. 12:30 PM: Arrival at Dubare Elephant Camp. Watch the gentle giants bathe in the river; you can even help scrub them if you wish. 2:30 PM: Check into your cosy plantation homestay – the air smells of cardamom and coffee. Evening: Sunset at Raja's Seat, where the sky melts into the valleys. Later, a home-cooked Coorg dinner (don't miss the pandi curry). Overnight in Coorg.
