Start your adventure with a thrilling jeep safari through the lush green forests of Munnar. This safari will take you through the winding roads of the Western Ghats and offer a close view of the beautiful flora and fauna. Throughout the journey, you'll come across cardamom and tea plantations, picturesque valleys, and beautiful waterfalls such as the Attukal waterfall.
Start your day with a tiger reserve trek at the Periyar National Park. The trek will take you through the dense forest with a wide range of flora and fauna. As you trek, keep a watchful eye for wildlife such as tigers, elephants, sambars, and sloth bears. The highlight of the trek is reaching the mesmerizing Meenakshi Amman Temple and the magnificent Mangala Devi Kannagi Temple.
Go for a wildlife safari at the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary. As you ride through the sanctuary, enjoy the stunning views of the lush green forests and freshwater streams. Later in the afternoon, go out for a bamboo rafting experience. This activity will take you through the serene Kuruva Islands and shallow waters, surrounded by dense trees and exotic birds.
Relax on the beaches of Kovalam for some adrenaline pumping activities. Go for a surf lesson on the three crescent-shaped beaches, or experience the thrill of paragliding over the ocean and catch awesome views of the coastal region. Then, catch an amazing sunset view at the Lighthouse Beach or take a stroll through the incredible waterside eateries and the local fishing village life.
If you have extra time, head for an Ayurvedic spa and rejuvenate yourself or explore Athirapally Falls, which is close to Cochin. If time is short, we will recommend ditching Kovalam and sticking to Munnar or explore the beautiful city of Cochin, with its Chinese fishing nets, Jew Street, and Fort Kochi.
