7N Kerala Tour | Cochin & Munnar & Thekkady – with Houseboat

8 Days 7 Nights

7 nights across Cochin, Munnar, and Thekkady, pairing tea hills, backwaters, and coast with 4-star hotel stays and transfers.

Days here open with the colonial lanes of Fort Cochin and run on through Cochin, Munnar, Thekkady, and Alleppey, linking it all into a single drive-and-stay trip. Mornings tend toward viewpoints and water; afternoons stay loose, so the 8 days cover real ground without turning into a checklist.

The route through Kerala

Expect the colonial lanes of Fort Cochin, the Mattancherry Dutch Palace and its Ramayana murals, the Paradesi Jewish Synagogue in Jew Town, St. Francis Church, India's oldest European church among the stops, plus spice gardens and a slow turn on the water. Towns sit a short drive apart, so the route keeps moving while still leaving afternoons open.

Who this tour is for

Across 8 days you get 7 nights in 4-star hotel accommodation, airport pick-up and drop, 12 included activities, daily breakfast. It is a straightforward, well-organised option for families and groups wanting hills, water, and culture in one trip.
