One can hear many birds chirping in the morning. The first floor is usually assigned to women, and the ground floor is given to men. Both floors have spacious living rooms to keep your luggage and take good rest. Mattresses are arranged in the night. Both floors can easily accommodate 20 people overall. Additionally, there are 3 Quechua rain-proof tents of 2-sharing, just in case, anyone prefers to sleep outside. There is a common area with a lawn in front of the homestay which is used for the campfire and other activities.
There are common and well-maintained washrooms in different areas of the ground floor. They have bathing as well as a toilet facility. Hot water is provided in a typical village setting by burning wood in a heat chamber.
- Surely the monsoons (June to Oct). It’s a great experience this time for the travelers who don’t care about getting wet and wild. Having said that, the water flow will be huge at this time.
- The best time to take dips in waterfalls is post monsoons (Nov to Feb). The climate is also very pleasant. Because of its proximity to the west coast, it doesn’t get too cold here.

My trip to Agumbe with Muddie Trails, led by Dev, exceeded all expectations. The lush landscapes and vibrant culture of Agumbe were beautifully complemented by Muddie Trails' well-planned itinerary offering a perfect balance of adventure and relaxation. The best part of the journey is not just about the destination but also about forming connections with fellow travelers. The camaraderie within the group made this trip truly memorable.
We group of 7 friends travelled with others, to Agumbe with muddie trails, fun-filled experience, pleasant homestay. Trip leaders were good, food was good too, covered all the places as per iternary. They conducted many small games to get to know about everyone and spend time together. One of the memorable trip.
Muddie Trails one of the Trekking Partner we see. We enquired with lot of companies but the way Muddies welcomed us and reply to our queries made us to choose them. We are really impressed and booked trekking for Agumbe. Jayanth who was our lead from Muddies took us for Agumbe trip. One of the best person who took care of us completely and made us comfortable all the time. I would recommend Jayanth to be as a lead for all trips from Muddies Will recommend to everyone Muddies for your trip or trekking plans
