Chapter Three — Activities & Sightseeing
The Real Stops Along the Way
2 of your 4days — the full day-by-day plan follows below.
Day 2 · Kochi → Munnar
Kochi to Munnar — Into the Western Ghats
The drive up to Munnar takes about four hours and climbs the whole way. Rubber gives way to cardamom, then to tea. Stop at Cheeyappara and Valara waterfalls when the monsoon has been kind. By the time you arrive the air is fifteen degrees cooler than Kochi.
Day 3 · Munnar → Alleppey
Munnar to Alleppey — Hills Down to the Water
You lose four thousand feet in four hours. Tea becomes rubber, rubber becomes paddy, and then the road is running beside water on both sides. Your houseboat is waiting at Alleppey. Lunch is served once you are out on the lake.
Chapter Four — Day by Day
4 Days, In Full
Every day, start to finish — including the transfers the sightseeing chapter above skipped.
Kochi
Arrival in Kochi — Fort Kochi & the Spice Quarter
Your driver meets you at Cochin airport. The road runs out to Fort Kochi, where four centuries of trade left their mark on one small peninsula. Walk the lanes on foot. St Francis Church, the Dutch Cemetery, the godowns of Jew Town still stacked with ginger and pepper. Evening is free for a Kathakali performance if you want one.

The lake is at its best before seven. Mist lifts off the water. Fishermen work the nets while the light is still soft. Breakfast is served on deck as the boat returns to the jetty. Your driver takes you on to Cochin airport, roughly ninety minutes away.
