The journey
Discover your next journey.
The highlight of this Kerala escape is a night on a kettuvallam – a traditional rice-barge houseboat – drifting through the Alleppey backwaters. Before that you head into the hills: two nights in Munnar for tea estates, waterfalls and Eravikulam National Park.
You then move to Thekkady, where you can walk through spice plantations or take a boat on Periyar Lake. On day four you board your houseboat in Alleppey for a slow cruise past villages, paddy fields and coconut groves, with meals freshly cooked on board, before your drop in Kochi the next day.
Starting price: ₹20,450 per person. Pickup and drop: Kochi.
