How this version is planned

  • Fewer hotel changes and later starts, so mornings are yours
  • A room upgrade request and a cake or flower decoration on one night, on request and subject to the hotel
  • Evenings kept free for sunsets and dinners rather than packed with sightseeing
  • Private transfers throughout instead of shared coaches
  • A relaxed pace with two-night stays where possible

This is a suggested itinerary. Sightseeing order may change with opening days, weather and local conditions; your final plan is in your written quote.

Good to know

  • Munnar: Book Eravikulam tickets online and go early; the park shuttle has long queues by mid-morning.
  • Thekkady: Book the first Periyar boat of the morning; animal sightings are best early and tickets are limited.
  • Alleppey: Choose a premium or deluxe houseboat with an air-conditioned bedroom; AC usually runs only at night.
  • Kovalam: Lifeguards patrol only parts of the beach; swim between their flags.
