Specially curated by Naveen Tours and Travels, this tour touches every classic Kerala highlight: colonial Fort Kochi, misty Munnar tea plantations, the spice-scented forests of Thekkady, the iconic backwaters of Alleppey, and the golden sand beaches of Kovalam and Trivandrum, without compressing any one stop into a rushed half-day visit.
| Duration | 7 Days / 6 Nights |

This 7-day comprehensive journey offers a genuine blend of mountain scenery, wildlife encounters, backwater cruise relaxation, and beach leisure. Starting in Kochi and concluding in Trivandrum, or run in reverse on request, you travel in a dedicated private AC vehicle with a single driver for the full week, and the pace can be adjusted at any stop if your group wants an extra half-day somewhere.
