For people unfamiliar, Ooty - The queen of hill stations is a popular hill retreat located in Nilgiris district of Tamil Nadu. The town of Ooty sits right the heart of Nilgiris Bioreserve in the western ghats - one of the most important biodiversity hotspots of the world.

Ooty is surrounded by dense, lush green sholas (native forests), wildlife reserves & numerous waterbodies. Most of the these are offlimits to tourists in an effort to protect it's rich flora & fauna and the fragile ecosystem.

This was my first time camping with Exoticamp. I have been following their Instagram page for a while and wanted to go on an adventure. I am so glad I chose this Misty Ooty package. It was so much fun, adventurous, and at the same time super relaxing. The hostess and the staff were all great. Overall such a fun experience!

This is my first camping experience. It was awesome. Quality food served. Quality time spent. Very much enjoyed without any gaps. We had fun activities, trekking to least explored yet safe place, refreshments whenever needed, gaming session, dance. On top of everything, we enjoyed a lot at campfire. Sam was full of energy and talked about every topic that popped out. Chandru enhanced the natural beauty with his lens.
