About This Trip

Escape the everyday with a 7-day journey through the heart of Kerala, starting from the vibrant city of Cochin. This isn't just a trip; it's an immersion into a world of serene backwaters, lush spice plantations, and golden beaches. Imagine drifting along the Alleppey backwaters on a traditional houseboat, the gentle sway lulling you into a state of bliss. Picture yourself inhaling the aromatic scents of cardamom, pepper, and cloves in Munnar’s rolling hills. And visualize basking in the sun on the pristine sands of Kovalam Beach.

We begin in Cochin, exploring Fort Kochi’s colonial history – the Chinese fishing nets, St. Francis Church, and Mattancherry Palace. Then, we’ll glide into the backwaters of Alleppey, spending a night on a houseboat, enjoying delicious Kerala cuisine prepared onboard. From there, we ascend to Munnar, where tea gardens stretch as far as the eye can see. We’ll take a guided tour of a tea factory, learn about the tea-making process, and savor a fresh cup amidst breathtaking views. Finally, we descend to Kovalam, relaxing on its famed beaches, enjoying Ayurvedic treatments, and soaking up the coastal charm.

This itinerary is perfect for couples seeking a romantic getaway, friends wanting an adventure, or solo travelers eager to discover the magic of Kerala. The difficulty level is easy-going, with most activities involving gentle walks and boat rides. The best time to visit is between September and March, when the weather is pleasant and dry. We’ll handle the logistics, allowing you to focus on creating unforgettable memories. Stop for a fantastic seafood meal at Ocean Queen in Kovalam, famous for its fresh catch and beachfront location. Don't miss the chance to explore the local markets in Cochin for spices and handicrafts. Book now on Travelers Nest and get ready for an incredible journey!

Throughout the trip, you'll experience the warm hospitality of the Kerala people, sample authentic cuisine, and witness the vibrant culture of this captivating state.
