Tropical beachscape in Kerala with coconut trees, smooth coastline, and traditional fishing boats.

Scenic Kerala Uncovered

From misted tea ridges to quiet coconut shores — a gentle drift through India’s emerald hush and ocean edge.

Kerala wakes along Cochin’s old spice lanes and hidden courtyards where Dutch gables watch backwaters slip by. Fishing nets catch dawn light while colonial churches and cinnamon-scented streets remember merchant whispers from centuries past.

Up in Munnar, tea gardens roll over misty slopes and eucalyptus trails. In Thekkady, forest paths meet Periyar’s calm lake, where boat safaris slip through bamboo thickets and elephants leave only rustling footprints behind.

Alleppey drifts in houseboats along mirrored canals, palm shadows and temple bells mingling with the slow rhythm of village life. Farther south, Poovar’s beaches and backwater islands gather salt breeze and coconut groves before the journey rests at Kanyakumari — where three seas meet beneath drifting prayer flags and the last sunset slips into a restless ocean.

This is where green hills whisper to backwaters — and shorelines keep their hush in salt and sun.

Day 1

Arrive in Cochin and let Kerala’s humid breeze and spice-laden air welcome you. Spend the afternoon as you wish — wandering the waterfront, pausing in hidden courtyards, or simply unwinding after your journey.

Day 2

Trace Cochin’s colonial past: step inside Mattancherry Palace, its painted murals telling royal tales; wander Paradesi Synagogue’s whitewashed courtyard under old lamps; stand in St. Francis Church, India’s oldest European church still whispering Portuguese prayers. As dusk deepens, watch Kathakali dancers weave old myths with painted faces and silent glances.

Day 3

Wind upward into Munnar’s misty hills. Wander tea estates draped in dew, listen to leaves rustle under deft fingers, and breathe crisp air as plantation slopes roll away into cloud-soft distance.

Day 4

Descend through cardamom forests and pepper vines to Thekkady — where forests murmur and spices scent the air. Let the day drift freely: stroll market lanes rich with cloves and nutmeg, or rest in the shade of an old teak grove.

Day 5

Drift by boat across Periyar Lake, a mirror for elephants and kingfishers. Watch the jungle wake on the water’s edge as herds graze and birds circle in the canopy above.

Day 6

Journey to Alleppey and step aboard a traditional Kettuvallam houseboat. Glide through narrow backwater canals fringed with coconut palms and quiet villages. Savour fresh Kerala flavours as your floating home rocks gently under the starlit sky.

Day 7

Leave the backwaters behind for Poovar’s calm beaches where river meets the sea. Rest beneath coconut fronds, dip your toes in the surf, or drift on a backwater canoe at sunset.

Day 8

Travel to Kanyakumari — India’s southernmost point where three seas touch one shore. Stand at the confluence, watch fishing boats slip between horizon and tide, then return to Poovar as dusk paints the coastal skies.

Day 9

Let your final hours flow at your own pace: a quiet walk on warm sand, a last sip of tender coconut water, or a silent moment under swaying palms — then depart with Kerala’s hills, rivers, and coastal hush carried gently onward to your next journey.
