It is a beautiful place and reaching there is not a hassle at all. It is extremely well connected. It is most famously known for the Periyar National Park where tourists love to go for the Periyar Tiger Trail, which is a thrilling experience.

Thekkady From Trivandrum By air: There are currently no flights which will take you from Trivandrum to Thekkady.

 

Thekkady From Trivandrum By train: Trains are the most economical and affordable. Train journeys are super fun when travelling in a large group. The whole journey passes by very easily. The train duration to reach Thekkady from Trivandrum is about 2 hours. However, the nearest station where you will have to deboard is not very close to the city centre. From the Kottayam Railway Station, a cab ride of approximately 2 hours will take you to Thekkady. It is not inconvenient, just a little longer than you may expect.

 

Thekkady From Trivandrum By road: Individual travellers could swear by bus travel. The bus directly travels from Trivandrum to Thekkady. It takes just 5 hours to reach Thekkady from Trivandrum.

Sudheer Jampani Hyderabad

Kanakagrawal's 6 days trip to Thekkady

Our recent trip to Kerala was made even more memorable thanks to the exceptional service we received from Postcard Trip. The taxi driver they assigned to us, Prasanth Bhaia, was fantastic. He was always on time, courteous, and incredibly knowledgeable about the region. Prasanth's recommendations for activities throughout our trip were spot-on, especially that Kayaking experience we had near Varkala, which became a real highlight! Mahima at Postcard Trips also deserves a big shoutout! Her prompt and helpful communication ensured everything ran smoothly throughout our journey. Overall, Postcard Trips exceeded our expectations. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services to anyone visiting Kerala! Small Suggestion: It would be incredibly helpful for vegetarian tourists if you could curate a personalized list of top vegetarian restaurants based on their cuisine preferences at each destination during their trip.
