Hi thanks for the info. Can you please tel me how you went there by any package?? and please give me hotel information
Hi dpdl, We went Kerala in 2010 and enjoyed the trip. We have planned for 4 nights/5 days in kerala and covered Cochin city tour, munnar, alleppy, thekkady, houseboat. we have taken package rs 32k from kerala tourism. They have allotted very nice hotels with complimentary bf (tamarind hotel). In house boat also we will have 1 day free food. guide is also very cooperative and experienced. our guide shown so many places which are not mentioned in the package. We have noted some places near by from google before going to the trip and with help of guide we have covered those places with in time.
Guess 3-4 days would be too short. Visiting many places in short span result in spending more time in travel and less time in site seeing and relaxing. I would suggest you cut short to 1 or 2, or at max 3 places and enjoy the places well.. Cheers, Soumya
