Kodungallur Tour Packages

Visa and entry

Indian citizens do not need a visa; carry a government photo ID such as Aadhaar or a passport for hotels and flights.

Health and safety

Travel insurance is a good idea, especially for adventure activities. Carry prescription medicines in their original packaging with a copy of the prescription.

Currency and tipping

The currency is the Indian rupee (INR). Tipping is not compulsory; around 5–10% in restaurants and a small tip for drivers and guides is appreciated.

Best time to visit

October to March. Pleasant after the monsoon; June to September is very wet.

Getting around

Kochi and Thiruvananthapuram have the main airports; Kozhikode serves the north and Wayanad. Distances are short but hill roads are slow, so allow 3–4 hours for most transfers.

Local etiquette

• Dress modestly at temples, churches and mosques, and remove footwear where asked.
• Ask before photographing people, and follow photography rules at religious sites and museums.

What to pack

Pack a light jacket or sweater for cool evenings, sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat and swimwear, modest clothing that covers shoulders and knees for religious sites, a compact umbrella or rain jacket and comfortable walking shoes.

Phone and internet

Mobile data is good in towns and cities. Coverage can be patchy in remote, hill and forest areas, so download offline maps before you set off.

Budget

We don't publish fixed prices because the season, hotel category, flights and group size change the cost. Your written quote lists exactly what is included, so you can compare like for like.
