Useful Tips

If you have more than 3 days, consider adding a visit to Munnar for its tea plantations and trekking trails. For adrenaline junkies, try river rafting at Athirapally or hiking to the Athirapally waterfalls. If you have less time, skip Varkala and head straight to Alleppey for a relaxed houseboat trip. Make sure to carry enough cash, as many places do not accept cards. Avoid visiting during monsoon season (June-September), as most places will be closed and travel can be challenging due to heavy rains.
