Kerala Tour Packages

The peak tourist season is from September to March when the weather is pleasantly cool and comfortable for exploring beaches, hill stations, and backwaters. If you want to experience the lush green beauty of Kerala or indulge in Ayurvedic treatments, the monsoon season (June to August) is also highly recommended.

A 5 to 7-day itinerary is ideal to cover the classic triangle of Cochin – Munnar – Thekkady – Alleppey. If you wish to include North Kerala (Wayanad, Bekal) or deep South beaches (Kovalam, Varkala), a 9 to 12-day tour is recommended.

Day Cruise: Usually lasts 4 to 5 hours, offering a scenic ride along the backwaters with an authentic traditional Kerala lunch served on board.

• Overnight Stay: The boat cruises until sunset, anchors in a quiet part of the lake for the evening, and includes dinner and breakfast. It provides a peaceful, immersive experience under the stars. Note: Most houseboats anchor by 5:30 PM due to local fishing regulations.

Don't miss trying Karimeen Pollichathu (pearl spot fish marinated in spices and grilled in a banana leaf), Kerala Puttu with Kadala Curry (breakfast specialty), Malabar Parotta with chicken or beef curry, and the traditional Sadya (an elaborate vegetarian feast served on a banana leaf).

Kerala has four international airports, making it highly accessible:

• Cochin International Airport (COK): Best for accessing central destinations like Munnar, Alleppey, and Thekkady.

• Trivandrum International Airport (TRV): Best if you want to visit Kovalam, Varkala, or Kanyakumari first.

• Calicut (CCJ) & Kannur (CNN): Ideal for exploring Wayanad and North Kerala.
