This 200-year-old plantation, 12km north of Ponda, is the least touristy, elephant-free and the cream of the crop in the region. You’ll be welcomed with fresh pomegranate juice, cardamom bananas and other organic treats, and find knowledgeable guides keen to walk you through the 40-hectare plantation at your own pace. Local crafts are also for sale and there are a couple of cottages for overnight stays.
