Kochi, Munnar, Thekkady & Alleppey
God's Own Country in one classic circuit — colonial Fort Kochi, the misty tea hills of Munnar, the wildlife-rich forests of Thekkady, and a houseboat night on the Alleppey backwaters. Best travelled September through March, when the monsoon has cleared and the hills and backwaters are at their greenest and calmest.
