Itinerary Highlights
Munnar:
Munnar is the lovers’ paradise for Kerala honeymoon tour and is the top destination in Kerala tour packages for couples. High in the Western Ghats, it rests among rolling hills blanketed with tea plantations. The British first developed this area in the late 19th century as a summer escape in South India during their colonial times, introducing systematic tea farming that still defines Munnar’s visual and economic landscape. This region’s name means “three rivers” in Malayalam which reflects the confluence of the Mudhirapuzha, Nallathanni, and Kundala rivers. Munnar is splendid and historically resonant. Every winding path, every tea bush, every mist-shrouded peak speaks of colonial enterprise, ecological evolution, and timeless serenity.
- Tata Tea Museum: The Tata Tea Museum preserves the colonial history of the region’s tea industry and offers insights into plantation life and early mechanized production.
- Eravikulam National Park: Once a private hunting ground, it now protects endangered species like the Nilgiri Tahr and showcases the rare Neelakurinji flower, which blooms once every 12 years. This national park is home to various mammals, birds, and butterflies including Nilgiri langur, leopards, and elephants.
- Top Station: Lockhart Gap and Top Station were once crucial transit points between plantations and the plains; today, they offer panoramic views of valleys once charted by explorers and engineers.
- Echo Point: It is where the voice reverberates back from the surrounding hills. This acoustic experience attracts couples to spend time and shout out each other’s names in the lap of nature.
- Mattupetty Lake: It is formed by the Mattupetty Dam surrounded by lush hills, picturesque views, and is ideal for boating. This lake plays an important role in hydroelectric power generation and water conservation.
Thekkady:
Further inland lies Thekkady. It is a region that is defined by dense forests, spice plantations, and a vast wildlife area. This land has long held strategic and spiritual significance. It is the home to various tribal communities like the Mannans, Paliyans, and Uralis that add another layer of cultural dimension to this region. Thekkady was once part of the Travancore kingdom and also boasts several ancient temples and architectural remnants. Its charm lies not just in its natural wealth, but in the quiet continuity of traditions that still follow ancient rhythms.
- Periyar National Park: Periyar National Park was established in 1934 and surrounds the Periyar Lake, an artificial reservoir, and a great spot for boat safaris. It is a haven for diverse flora and fauna, including elephants, tigers, and various bird species.
- Spice Plantation: The region’s spice plantations, particularly cardamom and pepper, trace their legacy back over 2000 years. These spices were the original lure for Roman and Arab traders, placing Thekkady on the global spice map well before the colonial era.
Alleppey:
Known as the “Venice of the East,” Alleppey is famed for its intricate network of canals, lagoons, and backwaters. But beneath its romantic surface lies a deep-rooted narrative of innovation and cultural richness. Alleppey’s canal system was developed in the 18th century under the Diwan Raja Kesavadas, transforming the region into a key trading port for rice and spices. Alleppey is scenic and is engineered with elegance, shaped by centuries of trade, water wisdom, and coir craftsmanship. It remains Kerala’s fluid soul alive, reflective, and steeped in legacy.
- Alleppey Lighthouse: The Alleppey Lighthouse, built in 1862, was one of the first of its kind along the Kerala coast, signaling its maritime importance. Made up of red and white stripes, this lighthouse is a symbol of hope and safety for sailors.
- Houseboat Stays: Traditional houseboats or kettuvallams, now used for leisure, were once used to transport goods and families across the backwater routes before the era of roads. Houseboat stay is one of the main parts of Kerala honeymoon tours, and takes you to the rich maritime history and architectural ingenuity of the region.
Cochin:
Cochin, Kerala’s coastal jewel, has long been a melting pot of global civilisations. Strategically located on the Arabian Sea, this historic port street welcomes Arab traders, Chinese navigators, Jewish settlers, Portuguese conquerors, Dutch colonists, and British rulers. Each left behind enduring impressions on the culture, architecture, and way of life of Cochin. It is the region where time lingers. Its layered identity makes it Kerala’s cultural gateway and a timeless setting for stories of connection and shared heritage.
- Fort Kochi: It is a living museum where Portuguese-era houses line the narrow streets. It is the first place in India where Europeans (the Portuguese) built a fort.
- St. Francis Church: Built in 1503, it is the oldest European church in India and once held the remains of Vasco da Gama.
- Chinese Fishing Nets: The Chinese fishing nets were gifted by ancient traders from the Court of Kublai Khan. This net still sways in the sea breeze, emblems of cultural exchange and ingenuity.
- Dutch Palace: It is a blend of Portuguese architecture with Kerala murals, depicting episodes from the Ramayana and royal life.
- Jewish Synagogue: Established in 1568, it is the oldest active Synagogue in the Commonwealth, preserving the stories of the once-flourishing Jewish community in Kerala.
