8 Days Munnar Thekkady Alleppey Kanyakumari Kovalam
Holiday Packages

Built for travellers who would rather take in South India fully than rush through its highlights, this 8 day trip from cool, tea covered hills into deep forest, from forest into calm backwater country, and finally to a coastline where two seas meet before a third joins in. Eight days unfold as one continuous story rather than a hurried checklist of stops. Handpicked hotels in Munnar and Thekkady, a private houseboat night in Alleppey, and beachfront stays near Kanyakumari and Kovalam keep every transfer and check-in already sorted, leaving you free to simply show up and settle into each place as it comes.
