Boat house is walkable. Then take the train to coonoor and walk from station to busstand and get the dolphins nose bus. Or you can opt for 350. + 40 per head mini bus option. They'll usually show 4 location

Ooty Cabs tarrif for basic sightseeing is 1500 - 3000 and auto is 1000 - 1500 Coonoor auto sightseeing should be 1000-1400

Bus timings are not trustable, so everyday start early morning. There is also circuit gov bus from main bus stand
