Thekkady is a vital part of any itinerary for a visit to the state of Kerala. There are a number of places to visit in Thekkady. Covering most of the aspects of an ideal vacation for tourists, there are views of pristine natural beauty, of religious significance and of cultural importance. Due to the main attraction being the nearby Periyar Tiger Reserve, Thekkady tourist places are more oriented towards nature and its beauty. However, hidden amidst the beautiful forests are a few different sights that are unique to this region. This is an attempt to make a list of Thekkady’s places to visit in a comprehensive yet brief manner.

The main attraction in terms of places to visit has to be the Periyar Tiger Reserve. One of the most beautiful wildlife sanctuaries in the whole of India, The Tiger Reserve is the crown jewel of places to visit in Thekkady. Blessed with a large variety of flora and fauna, there is much more to see in the sanctuary even for those not particularly interested in nature. Home to many indigenous species, not the least of which is the majestic Bengal tiger, a lot of Thekkady’s tourism related activities are based around it. Apart from the tiger, the reserve is also home to a number of birds, some of them exceedingly rare like the Steppe Gull and the Paddyfield Warbler.

The reserve is also very well known for the number of elephants that are present here. Rounding off the list of mammals are also the Nilgiri Tahir, the lion tailed Macaque and Salim Ali’s fruit bat. The Periyar Tiger Reserve and Wildlife Sanctuary is the most commonly visited and loved of the various places to see in Thekkady.

    We had an awesome and fun filled family trip. Mr. Robin from Comfort Destination had arranged a very good hotel stay with sea view rooms as requested. We are very much satisfied with the hotel stay. Food was delicious in all hotel stays. Special mention to the food in house boat at Alleppey. Robin h
    as arranged a very friendly cab driver Mr. Thanseel. His driving was super good and safe. He is also very informative with the locations. We are eager to plan our next trips with the Travel Triangle especially with Comfort Destination. We will very much suggest travel triangle to our family, friends and colleagues. The overall experience was very nice, very good and satisfactory. Poovar island, Alleppey House Boat, Kovalam, Cochin

Rooms were are very simple & breakfast they provided was ok & servi
    ces were decent. Cab was in very good condition & driver also very good person. He did his work properly. No issues in that. Overall it's a good trip . Thank u namaskaram travel & tour agent vineet for great support & service from start to end.

    It was a great tour experience. Very well planned by Trip sailer agent (Namit), Traveltriangle. I was explained everything in detail by Namit and the Driver(Sajith Joseph) too was awesome, he has guided us about the places and local specialities through out the tour and has taken care of our family
    with utmost respect and friendly behaviour. Excellent service overall. Thanks for giving our family many good moments to cherish.

    Bala's 4 days trip to Thekkady

    Hi Team, As you this wasn't my 1st trip with you guys. Though booking was hassle free was surprised to after service, moreover your App was so pathetic which I had complained also, inspite of install & uninstall multiple times , I had login and due payment issues. No transparency on cost due to w
    hich I eventually paid on higher payment instead of what it was promised to be, refund for the same pending. Had mixed opinion on overall journey 1) Driver Nice and very friendly guy and always promot on his duty, full 5star for him. 2) Hotel - Lake View munnar * Property was good with view point and staffs etc. But drawbacks were , It's 3 Star hotel rather 4 star. I had face Hot water issue for all days, Team used to attend complaint but didn't get resolved . Food for one night was so bad and it lacks with other amenities to be called a 4Star. 3) Boat house It was fantastic, nice crew team, Good food & Hospitality. It didn't had hot water facilities As I was carrying my infant , but overall it was a happy stay. 4) Support from Travel agent / Travel triangle representative Totally below par to my expectations, As eveytime I need to do too many follow ups, Still I didn't get my refund amount on excess money paid. House boat stay and Villa Property of hotel.
