Kerala Tours & Itineraries

The brief

Kerala tours by MyTripMyTravel are private, chauffeured, escorted circuits across backwaters, tea estates, and the spice coast. 5 packages available as starting architectures; the planning desk customises duration, hotels, stops, and pace. Every itinerary runs on the GPS-tracked Elite Fleet protocol with monument and venue access handled end to end.

Kerala is India's slow-luxury and wellness register, the houseboat night on Vembanad, the cool climb to Munnar's tea estates, Fort Kochi's spice-coast heritage, and the Ayurveda layer that runs the length of the coast. Tour packages here lean to multi-night base stays rather than fast multi-city rotation.

Most of the listed packages are South-India circuits that anchor in Kerala; deeper Kerala-only missions (with Kumarakom, Bekal, Varkala) are typically built bespoke through the planning desk.

Kerala tours FAQ

How many Kerala tour packages are available?

5 Kerala packages are listed as starting architectures; each is fully customisable, and the planning desk routinely combines and extends them.

Can I customise the Kerala itinerary?

Entirely. Every package is a starting architecture; we adjust duration, hotels, stops, and pace to your party while keeping the regional character intact.

Are Kerala tours private?

Always, a single party with a dedicated chauffeur on the GPS-tracked Elite Fleet protocol. Never shared or pooled.

Can I extend Kerala into another region?

Yes, the same chauffeured fleet continues seamlessly. Kerala routinely combines with the Golden Triangle (Delhi-Agra-Jaipur) and the wider Indian circuit.

How many days do I need for Kerala?

The classic Kochi to Munnar to Thekkady to Alleppey loop needs about a week. Add a few days for a beach or Ayurveda wind-down at Marari or Kumarakom, or combine with the Golden Triangle for a 12 to 14 day trip.

Is a backwater houseboat night worth it?

Yes, a private converted rice-barge with an en-suite cabin and onboard cook drifting the Alleppey canals is the signature Kerala experience, and it's included in most of our Kerala itineraries.

When should I avoid Kerala?

June to August is the heavy south-west monsoon, lush and cheaper but wet, with hill roads and wildlife viewing affected. September to March is the reliable window, though the monsoon is traditionally valued for authentic Ayurveda.

Can I do a genuine Ayurveda programme here?

Yes, Kerala is the home of Ayurveda. We use vetted centres with qualified physicians for supervised multi-day programmes, framed honestly as recuperative therapy rather than a medical cure.
