Begin your tour with a day in Fort Kochi and Mattancherry. Visit the St. Francis Church, the oldest European church in India. Explore the Mattancherry Palace, also known as the Dutch Palace, a beautiful example of traditional Kerala architecture. Check out the local markets and shops along Jew Street, known for antiques and spices.
Head to the beautiful hill station of Munnar, famous for its tea plantations, wildlife, and natural beauty. Visit the Mattupetty Dam and go boating in the lake. Then take a tour of the Tata Tea Museum, which showcases the history and production of tea in the region. End the day with a visit to the Top Station viewpoint for a stunning panoramic view.
On the final day, head to the backwaters of Alleppey for a relaxing day on the water. Take a scenic houseboat tour and enjoy the beautiful views of palm trees, water birds, and local villages. Stop for lunch at a local restaurant to try traditional Kerala cuisine, such as fish curry, appam, and puttu. End the day with the beautiful Alleppey Beach.
If you have more time, consider adding a visit to the beautiful Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary or the scenic Poovar Island. For less time, consider skipping the Mattancherry Palace or Alleppey Beach. Make sure to pack comfortable walking shoes and light clothing. Bring plenty of sunscreen, mosquito repellant, and water. Finally, try to visit during the winter months between October and February to avoid the monsoon season and enjoy pleasant temperatures.
