Wayanad Tea Museum

Nice place to know history of tea making in Waynad and different varieties of tea that comes from several parts of india. They have non functional tea machinery kept here, you can ask and visit live tea making factory nearby. Good place to visit if you have some time at hand in waynad.

I had the pleasure of visiting the Wayanad Tea Museum, and it was an enriching experience that offered a deep insight into the world of tea production.

The museum is well-organized, with informative exhibits that take visitors on a journey through the history and process of tea cultivation and production. The displays include vintage tea-making equipment, photographs, and detailed explanations that make the learning experience engaging and enjoyable.

Surrounding the museum are lush tea plantations, providing a picturesque backdrop. It's a great opportunity for visitors to see firsthand the tea bushes and learn about the different types of tea grown in the region.

The museum is situated in a serene and scenic location, offering panoramic views of the surrounding hills and tea plantations. It's a tranquil setting that adds to the overall charm of the visit.

The Wayanad Tea Museum provides an excellent opportunity to learn about the art and science of tea-making in a beautiful natural setting. Whether you're a tea enthusiast or simply curious about the world of tea, this museum offers an educational and enjoyable experience that's well worth a visit during your time in Wayanad.

Nice place to taste a variety of tea flavours and get an idea of tea cultivation process. Staff is very cooperative here.

Wayanad a hill town in the Western Ghats mountain ranges is called as the Hub of Tea Plantations. If you are a tea connoisseur and if you love Tea, the Wayanad Tea Museum is a must visit place for you. Wayanad Tea Museum by Harrisons Malayalam Limited (HML) is a 100 year old Tea factory converted into a Tea Museum for the tourist to experience. The Museum exhibits the history of Tea, etc.

Good place to visit to know the history of tea estates and also oldest machine are kept to watch, there is cafe on 2nd floor with varieties of tea but found bit expensive, overall good meusem

Visited during a holiday. Tea factory ry was closed for maintenance. Only the museum was open. Could see some things, but wasn't worth it. Visited the cafe, which had a long list of teas. Was told they ran out of milk at 5pm. Big let down!

Must visit to this museum on the way to banasura. Lots of history around tea, plantations, equipments etc. You have a cafe on the top floor where you can have tea and snacks and buy some special tea as well. You can easily spend 1-2 hrs here.

It takes half hour to cover entire museam. Good information and decent experience. View from the tea cafe on 3rd floor is beautiful.

50/- per person

Its an old tea factory built in British Era. Very well detailed posters about tea cultivation and Wayanad are the major attractionof the museum. They have exhibited a few models used in tea factory too. Tea testing and tea shop also part of it. Entry fee 50 ₹ / person.

It’s an old building converted to a Tea Museum. There is no guide to show u around. It’s all do it yourself tour. They also don’t have any ticketing system but they do charge ₹50 per person.

On the ground floor you will find all the information on how tea first came to India, along with some old machines that were used in Tea plantation. On 2nd floor, there are stuff from 70-80s like radio’s, floppy disk, VCRs, clocks etc.

On the 3rd floor they have tea tasting area. Where they are supposed to serve you tea, but there was no one as all the staff (3 people) were having lunch together.

They sure will charge you money but will disappear when you will need them. All and all it’s a complete waste of time. They don’t even have their own tea gardens. However, you can just walk into nearby tea gardens to take pictures for your travel diary. Like we did.

Would not recommend this place at all… it’s would be better to go for a proper tea tour which are nearby this place.

Wonderful place, different from all the other views nearby which are either falls or lakes or view points or ziplines.

If you are a Tea person you should go here and understand more about Tea. Even the tea served here was awesome, we took Ginger tea and Masala tea both were excellent and ended up buying Masala tea for home.

Best place to see old equipments, computers, machineries, tools, tea production line elements, history, old british time stoves etc, there's a small cafe offers different types of tea and selling tea related collectibles and powders. Entire building is of a antique historical structure with french windows and good ambience. Well maintained and it's worth a shot to experience and see things once.

The detailed history behind the tea available here. We can see All equipments used to make tea and traditional methods followed by the people in early 19th century. A perfect ambience for photography Also we can see there. We will get diffrent types of pure natural teas there.

Wayanad tea museum is an old tea factory converted into a museum. This was an ok experience with lots of informative bits w.r. T wayanad and tea in general. The entry fee is 20 rs and you can buy different sorts of tea from there. However when we visited we could not do the tea tasting as they did not allow it but at the same time they permitted tea tasting for some V. I. P person. Tea is reasonably priced and we enjoyed the Chocolate tea which we bought. The spices are costly there and you can buy for much cheaper outside.

Must visit place in Wayanad. They have all the antique items displayed in the museum. And few old photo collections too. They also have a variety of tea, coffee, and their powders, essential oils. Good to have a memory by sitting in the museum having a cup of tea or coffee with your loved ones.

It was a nice experience visiting the museum.

We had tea from the cafe at 3rd floor. Also purchased different type of tea powder.

Tea tasting is temporarily stopped due to Covid scenario

Nice place and polite people, but the guy told they aren't providing the tea tasting program now. That would have been good actually

A wooden structure, constructed in three floors, it has a cafeteria and sale point on the top floor. Staff are really great and helpful.

This is one of the must visit place in Wayanad. The Tea Museum have three different floors depicting the history of introduction of tea into india, factory machines and their parts, official letters, antique devices, etc. The third floor offers varieties of tea and packets of tea leaves, honey and ayuvedic oils that can be purchased.

I loved this museum though It hardly had any visitors. I came to know about the rich history of tea plantation along with some good display equipments. Museum was neat and clean and well maintained. They also have tea tasting and tea selling counter on second floor. Quality of the tea was good though the coffee was not that great.

They are just on track.the museum started in 2018 but it look like very old buildingthats how they designed it! We can enjoy their variety teas.a very nice place to visit and a really appriciate the staffs for their hospitality.

Amazing details about tea, tasting is the best part. However, since many people do not visit, it's not greatly maintained.

If you are looking for a tea plantation experience do come here in the winters ie from October. There you can experience tea plucking experience, tea tasting to tea factory. Even in the off season you see the museum and visit the tea garden. On the top floor of museum there is a peaceful cafe where you can order different type of teas. The ambience matches a very nice cafe in delhi less the good music and some books to read. In front of it there are meadows of tea plants spread at length. Do try the Masala tea there at cafeteria

Disclaimer: There is no production, its just museum.in case don’t have time to visit this place while you are in wayanad. Feel yourself lucky.nothing to see.

It was an interesting tour though the tickets were priced too high. The 3 floors are nicely decorated and the implements are good. The stairs are a bit rickety which may be a problem for elderly people.

Great experience!
Very well maintained tea museum. If you are exploring wayanad then don’t miss it.
They got lot of collections especially about British engineering. They also got an amazing classic tea restaurant in top floor.

Nice experience. Ground floor gives an idea about tea in India, especially, Wayanad. The next floor exhibits a range of tea related machinery. The third floor has a tea tasting section where you get a chance to taste different types of tea. The ambience at the cafeteria is also mentionable.

A good place to start a great day and fresh tea will increase our energy.
Nice to visit and understand our plantation history.

A small building with a museum and a cafe spread over three floors. It was a former tea factory, a part of which was gutted down in the 1990s in a fire. The museum artifacts are not that impressive, but they do have a tea tasting session and the cafe has different teas that you can try like chocolate tea, masala tea, ginger tea, white tea. The cafe also stocks their tea produce and few other things like honey and essential oils.

Wonderful place. If you are into tea drinking, a must visit place. The staff is really helpful. Lithin Krishna and Vishnu Clint helped us quite well. Thank you guys.

Great venture and a rare exposure to experience the Great old plantation culture which prevailed and still continuing. Hats off to the brains behind.

പച്ചപ്പും പഴമയുടെ ലാവണ്യവും നമ്മെ പ്രണയാർദ്രമാക്കും. വീണ്ടും അവിടെ ചെന്ന് ഒന്നിരിക്കാനും അസ്തമയ സൂര്യ കിരണങ്ങൾ നോക്കി സ്വപ്നം കാണാനും മനസ് കൊതിക്കുന്നു.
