4-Day Kerala Tour: Munnar Hills & Alleppey Houseboat 4 Days & 3 Nights

Your Kerala journey begins the moment you arrive at Cochin Airport or Railway Station. A friendly representative will welcome you and escort you to Munnar, a hill station nestled 130 kilometers away. The 3.5-hour drive is a scenic delight, winding past sparkling streams, cascading waterfalls, and fragrant plantations of rubber, pepper, cardamom, and tea. Once in Munnar, check into your hotel and unwind in the cool mountain air. Let the peaceful surroundings ease you into vacation mode, with an overnight stay preparing you for the scenic adventures ahead.

Start your day in Munnar with a hearty breakfast and a full dose of scenic wonder. Begin at Mattupetty Lake and Dam, a lovely picnic spot with sweeping views of tea-covered hills. Glide across the calm waters in a Kashmiri-Shikara boat—perfect for couples seeking quiet moments. Next, visit Echo Point, where soft hills cradle a peaceful lake and your voice dances back to you. Stroll through the colourful gardens of Blossom Park, then head to Kundala Lake, tucked among lush forests and ideal for a gentle pause. Explore Munnar’s iconic tea gardens and dive into the story of tea at the Tea Museum. For a splash of excitement, visit Wonder Valley Amusement Park with its fun rides and outdoor thrills. Wrap up the day at Eravikulam National Park, where the rare Nilgiri Tahr roams across misty slopes. Return to your cosy hotel, ready to dream in the heart of the hills.

After breakfast, check out from your Munnar hotel and journey to Alleppey, where your private houseboat awaits. By 12:30 PM, step aboard and begin a gentle cruise through Kerala’s scenic backwaters, gliding past narrow canals, swaying palms, and quiet villages. Savor a freshly prepared lunch, sip evening tea, and enjoy light snacks as the day drifts by in peaceful rhythm. When night falls, dine under the stars on the sundeck, surrounded by the soft sounds of water and nature. This tranquil escape offers a restful overnight stay, far from the bustle of city life.

Start your final day in Kerala with a warm breakfast on the houseboat, surrounded by the gentle morning light on the backwaters. After checking out, travel to Cochin for a rich cultural experience. Begin with a visit to the historic Jewish Synagogue and the Dutch Palace, each echoing stories from Kerala’s vibrant past. Continue to St. Francis Church, the oldest European church in India, and then marvel at the graceful Chinese fishing nets swaying over the water. Unwind at Fort Kochi Beach, soaking in the sea breeze and reflecting on your journey. As your adventure comes to a close, you’ll be transferred to Cochin Airport or Railway Station, carrying home the peaceful rhythm and warm memories of ‘God’s Own Country.’
