Kochi, Munnar, Thekkady, Alleppey & Kovalam

The classic Kerala circuit extended to the coast — colonial Fort Kochi, the tea hills of Munnar, Thekkady's wildlife-rich forests, a houseboat night on the Alleppey backwaters, and a beach finish at Kovalam's golden shores. Best travelled September through March, when the monsoon has cleared and the hills, backwaters, and coastline are all at their best.
