Exotic Couple Getaway to Kerala Overview
Kerala has long been India’s most romantic travel destination, and for couples seeking a blend of natural beauty, quiet luxury, and genuine togetherness, nothing comes close to the experience this state delivers. This 7-day Kerala couple package traces the full arc of Kerala’s landscape: from the emerald heights of its hill stations to the still waters of its legendary backwaters, covering Munnar, Thekkady, Kumarakom, Alleppey, and Kochi in a single, seamlessly arranged journey.
Your journey begins in Munnar, one of South India’s most beloved hill stations, where rolling tea gardens stretch across misty mountain ridges as far as the eye can see. A private waterfall tour and a full-day sightseeing excursion covering Mattupetty Dam, Echo Point, Top Station, and Eravikulam National Park fill two beautiful days before the journey descends into the wildlife-rich forests of Thekkady. Here, a private sightseeing tour takes you to Periyar Tiger Reserve, where boat rides on Periyar Lake offer sightings of elephants, bison, and rare birds against a backdrop of dense tropical forest.
The midpoint brings you to Kumarakom, a hushed village on the banks of Vembanad Lake surrounded by lush paddy fields and coconut groves, where a private sightseeing tour reveals the Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary and traditional Kerala village life at its most authentic. The night that follows is the undisputed highlight of the entire journey: a night aboard a private Alleppey houseboat drifting through the backwater canals, with all meals included and nothing but water, coconut palms, and the most peaceful silence you have ever heard for company.
The journey concludes in Kochi, where the old Fort Kochi area offers a final afternoon of colonial-era streets, Chinese fishing nets at sunset, and the flavours of Kerala’s spice-trading heritage. This is Kerala the way it should be experienced: slowly, privately, and entirely together.
Exotic Couple Getaway to Kerala Itinerary
Arrive at Cochin Airport and drive to Munnar, stopping en route for a private Kerala Waterfall Tour that takes you to the cascading Attukad and Cheeyappara waterfalls framed by dense rainforest, before checking into your hotel as the cool hill air and the scent of tea plantations welcome you to God’s Own Country.
Spend a full private day discovering Munnar’s most iconic landscapes: the sweeping viewpoints of Top Station on the Tamil Nadu border, the crystal-clear Echo Point on Mattupetty Lake, the rare Neelakurinji slopes of Eravikulam National Park, and a guided walk through a working tea estate and factory.
Drive through winding spice-scented ghats down to Thekkady, home to the Periyar Tiger Reserve, where a private sightseeing tour takes you on a boat ride across Periyar Lake to watch wild elephants, spotted deer, and bison emerge from the forest to drink at the water’s edge.
Devote a full day in Thekkady to its other riches: a guided tour of aromatic cardamom, pepper, and vanilla plantations, a bamboo rafting experience on the Periyar River, and an evening Kalaripayattu martial arts performance that brings Kerala’s ancient warrior tradition vividly to life.
Arrive at Kumarakom on the shores of Vembanad Lake, Kerala’s largest lake, and spend a gentle private sightseeing day at the famous Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary watching painted storks, herons, and migratory Siberian ducks, before an evening boat ride across the glasslike waters as the sun sets in gold.
Board your private Alleppey houseboat for the most romantic night of the journey, gliding through Kerala’s UNESCO-recognised backwater network of narrow canals, lotus-covered lagoons, and coconut-palm-lined banks, with a freshly prepared breakfast, lunch, and dinner served on board as the world slows to a perfect stop.
Disembark and drive to historic Kochi for a final morning at Fort Kochi, watching the iconic Chinese fishing nets dip into the Arabian Sea at sunrise, strolling the colonial-era streets past Dutch and Portuguese architecture, visiting St. Francis Church, and savouring a last Kerala meal before your departure transfer.
