Day 2 — Kochi to Munnar
A four-hour drive from the coast into the hills, stopping at the Cheeyappara and Valara waterfalls en route. Check in and rest of the day free. Munnar nights are cool; hill-station rooms are non-A/C.

More questions, answered
Will the price change after I enquire?
The exact total for your dates is confirmed in writing before you pay. Some dates carry supplements or are unavailable; we tell you that at confirmation, not after.
Are entry tickets included?
No. Transport to every listed sight is included; entry tickets and activity fees are paid at each site.
Is the houseboat included?
The base package includes an Alleppey hotel night. The houseboat night — about 20 hours on the backwaters with all meals aboard — is a priced upgrade you can select. Deluxe, Premium and Luxury boats are available.
Are the rooms air-conditioned?
City and coastal hotels have A/C rooms. Hill-station hotels provide non-A/C rooms because of the cooler climate — this is standard across categories.
