What to Expect
🌿
In the garden
Fireflies concentrate at forest edges — exactly where villa gardens meet the treeline. No trekking required.
⏱️
15–20 minutes
The synchronised display peaks just after sunset, 7:30–9:00 pm. It builds slowly and is breathtaking at its peak.
📅
Two-week window
Triggered by the first pre-monsoon shower. The window is narrow — book for late May to maximise your chances.
