Hailing from Bangalore, we knew Kerala was an excellent destination but at the same time, had very little knowledge about the place, so we decided to take help. Upon searching for family Kerala tour packages<\/a> on the internet, we came across TravelTriangle and I immediately liked their idea of customizing a trip as per the traveler\u2019s needs.<\/p>\n After raising a request for the same, I soon received a call from the company\u2019s representative who understood my requirements and further connected me to local travel agents for the best possible quotes and itineraries. We chose \u201cVihaar Hospitality And Leisure\u201d as our travel partners because their agent Suja guided us very well. She thoroughly briefed us about all the places that we should visit and what would be the ideal activities for us as per a family vacation.<\/p>\n Duration:<\/strong> 4 nights and 5 days We were ready to explore Kerala and boy, we were excited!<\/p>\n Suggested Read:<\/strong> 10 Best Places To Visit In Kerala<\/a><\/p>\n We took a train from Bangalore and reached Ernakulam Railway Station in the morning. At the station, a representative from the agent\u2019 side was already waiting for us to transfer us to Munnar. He had also made arrangements for us to freshen up which we found to be a very thoughtful decision. Soon, we began our car journey to Munnar and the beautiful natural sceneries that we saw on the way, will forever be etched in our memories.<\/p>\n On our way from Kochi to Munnar, apart from the breathtaking glimpses of nature, we also visited a Spice Garden and two waterfalls. We had an amazing elephant ride here which my daughter really enjoyed and then continued our journey.<\/p>\n Upon our arrival in Munnar, we checked into our hotel \u201cBlack Forest Hotel\u201d and called it a night. Our trip had begun on a beautiful and a positive note and we were loving each moment.<\/p>\n This was a very interesting day for us. Our first half was spent at the Dreamland Spice Park in Munnar where my daughter enjoyed many activities like slides, bungee trampoline and more. Overall, it was a good experience and seeing my daughter happy made both my wife and I very happy too.<\/p>\n Next up was a handloom where we saw how Kasavu Sarees are weaved and incidentally this was also the place where the sarees for Deepika Padukone in the hit movie \u201cChennai Express\u201d was designed. It was fascinating to watch how the craftsmen weaved the sarees and my wife even bought a few for herself.<\/p>\n Other places in our itinerary included Rose Garden, Photo point, and tea garden. Overall, it was a pretty great experience and we loved our sightseeing experience in Munnar.<\/p>\n Suggested Read:<\/strong> 15 Amazing Things To Do In Kerala [Infographic]<\/a><\/p>\n Post our breakfast at the hotel, we checked out and proceeded for Thekkady. After checking into our hotel, we straightaway proceeded towards the Periyar National Park where had enjoyable boating experience. Boating at a place surrounded by nature was refreshing experience in itself and we loved our time spent here.<\/p>\n In the evening, we proceeded for the famous Kalaripayattu martial arts performance and it was followed by the Kathakali dance program. Both of these activities gave us an insight into the culture of Kerala and it surely was a once in a lifetime experience for us.<\/p>\n Out of all the experience in Kerala, our houseboat experience was the best!<\/p>\n After breakfast today, we checked out of our hotel and then proceeded towards Alleppey. After reaching Alleppey, we were welcomed in our houseboat where after resting for a while, our backwaters ride started.<\/p>\n The whole backwaters experience was surreal and truly reflective of the nature of Kerala. We even stopped at a few islands and being here felt as if were in a completely different world altogether. We even caught a glimpse into the lifestyle of people living here.<\/p>\n Suggested Read:<\/strong> There Is A Reason Kerala Tops The Travel List Of All, And Kanika\u2019s Trip Proves Just That!<\/a><\/p>\n The food at our houseboat was amazing too and chef that was part of the crew made us a wonderful cream fish dish. We were also served onion pakoras and tea in the evening and overall, the whole service was splendid.<\/p>\n In the night since the houseboat AC\u2019s only operate from 9pm to 6am, we ventured out and visited a beach. My daughter enjoy a lot here and even took a bath in the waters post which we went to the local market and purchased the famous Kerala chips.<\/p>\n Upon returning to the houseboat, we surprised to find that there was a proper candleight dinner arranged for us and room was also decorated with flowers. Thoroughly impressed by the service, we carried our dinner inside the room (since it was bit hot outside), and savored the delicious food.<\/p>\n We checked out of the houseboat in the morning and proceeded to Kochi for our train back home. Since our reservation for the train was not confirmed, we stayed one more night in Kochi and proceeded to our home next day.<\/p>\n Kerala for the lack of better words, was surreal beyond imagination. Being amidst so much goodness of nature, we felt completely rejuvenated and refreshed by the time our trip came to an end. Taking a family trip in this paradise was an excellent choice and we should surely return once again to replenish our mind and soul.<\/em><\/p>\n Wow Moment:<\/strong><\/p>\n Tips for travelers:<\/strong><\/p>\n Kerala was a refreshing holiday for this family and you too can experience its many charms with your loved ones! \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0627\u0628 \u0627\u0648\u0644\u0627\u064a\u0646<\/a> Simply book a Kerala Family Package <\/a>and let us help you plan your perfect holiday!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Book memorable holidays on TravelTriangle with 650+ verified travel agents for 65+ domestic and international destinations.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n #metaslider_57782.flexslider .slides li {margin-right: 0px !important;}<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/a> <\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n .small-slider .thumb-strip,.small-slider .ImgThumbsupIcon{ .small-slider .book-now-btn:hover { <\/span><\/p>\n <\/a> <\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/a> <\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/a> <\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/a> <\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/a> <\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/a> <\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/a> <\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/a> <\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/a> <\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \n var metaslider_57782 = function($) { <\/p>\n “Kerala was a fabulous experience for us!
