5-Day Kerala Tour with Houseboat Stay 5 Days & 4 Nights

Arrive in Cochin and meet your friendly driver, ready to guide you into the green heart of Kerala. The 130 km drive to Munnar takes about 3.5 hours, winding through a landscape painted with streams, waterfalls, and endless stretches of tea and spice plantations. As you climb into the hills, pause to admire the Cheeyapara and Valara Waterfalls—two sparkling cascades nestled in the forest, perfect for photos and fresh mountain air. Once in Munnar, check into your hotel and relax, letting the cool breeze and scenic views welcome you to a peaceful start in God’s Own Country.

After enjoying breakfast, embark on a full day of sightseeing in Munnar. Witness the misty green hills and expansive tea gardens. Visit Mattupetty Lake and Dam for panoramic views and consider a serene 'Kashmiri-Shikara' boat ride. Discover the echoes at Echo Point and revel in the beauty of Kundala Lake and Dam. Conclude your day by exploring vast tea gardens before retreating to your hotel for a peaceful night's stay.

After breakfast, say goodbye to Munnar and begin your scenic drive to Thekkady, about 125 km through the winding roads of the Western Ghats. Along the way, enjoy the spice-scented breeze and the gentle sounds of birds and forest life—it’s nature’s own welcome. Once in Thekkady, check into your hotel and get ready for a day of cultural discovery. Watch the expressive Kathakali dance unfold with colourful costumes and storytelling, then feel the thrill of Kalaripayattu, Kerala’s ancient martial art. If you’re up for more, take a peaceful boat ride through Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary or stroll through a spice garden filled with cardamom, pepper, and cinnamon. End your day with a sense of wonder and a restful night in Thekkady’s quiet embrace.

After breakfast, check out and head to Alleppey to board your houseboat by 12:30 PM. Spend the day cruising through peaceful backwater canals, enjoying meals and the tranquil surroundings. Relax on the sun deck, watching the stars and listening to the water's gentle lapping. The houseboat offers a unique and peaceful retreat, perfect for unwinding away from city life.

After breakfast, transfer back to Cochin. If time permits, explore Cochin’s attractions like the Jewish Synagogue, Dutch Palace, and St. Francis Church. Don't miss the unique Chinese fishing nets and the scenic Fort Kochi Beach. Conclude your unforgettable Kerala journey and prepare for departure with treasured memories.
