Travel tips
- Carry sufficient cash as many local cafes and smaller shops in Coorg do not accept digital payments or cards.
- Hire a local taxi for the full day to reach remote viewpoints, as public transport connectivity between tourist spots is limited.
- Dress modestly when visiting Sri Omkareshwar Temple by ensuring your shoulders and knees are covered.
- Tipping is not mandatory in India, but leaving 5-10% at sit-down restaurants is appreciated for good service.
