Useful Tips

If you have more time, include a visit to the Periyar National Park, a nature lover's paradise with its elephant herds, exotic birds, and stunning vistas. If you have less time, we advise skipping the Kochi City Tour and opting for a refreshing spa and beach day in Varkala. However, please note that you might miss out on some of Kerala's cultural highlights. Always carry sunscreen and bottled water, and pack appropriate clothes for the beach, city, and backwaters.
