Begin your Kerala honeymoon in the laid-back city of Kochi. Take a stroll through the historic Fort Kochi area, where you'll find charming colonial-era architecture and the iconic Chinese Fishing Nets. Stop by the Mattancherry Palace, a 16th-century palace with beautiful mural paintings, and the Jewish Synagogue, one of the oldest in the country. End the day with a romantic sunset cruise on the backwaters.
Escape the city and head to the lush tea plantations of Munnar. Take a scenic drive along the winding roads and stop for a cup of freshly brewed tea. Visit the Kundala Dam, Top Station and Eravikulam National Park to see stunning views of the rolling hills and waterfalls. The cool air and stunning views make Munnar perfect for romantic walks and hikes.
End your Kerala honeymoon with a relaxing day in Alleppey. Take a traditional houseboat ride through the tranquil backwaters, where you'll see the famous Kerala practice of "punting" boats and the locals' simple way of life. Visit the Alleppey beach, which is less crowed and a great place for a romantic walk as the sun sets.
If you have more time, spend an extra day in Munnar to explore the beautiful mountains and waterfalls. For less time, skip Munnar and head straight to Alleppey. Stay in a waterfront resort for a more secluded experience. For local Kerala cuisine, try the appam with stew, parotta with beef fry, or puttu with kadala curry.
