Kochi serves as the main gateway for travellers visiting both Munnar and Alleppey, with excellent air, rail, and road connectivity. Whether you're planning a short getaway or a longer Kerala holiday, reaching both destinations is convenient from the city.

By Air via Cochin International Airport (COK)

Cochin International Airport is the nearest airport for both destinations. Munnar is located about 125 km from the airport and takes approximately 4 hours by road, while Alleppey is around 85 km away and can be reached in about 1.5 to 2 hours.

By Rail via Ernakulam Junction (ERS)

Ernakulam Junction is the nearest major railway station and offers excellent connectivity for a Kerala trip from Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad. From here, travellers can continue to Munnar and Alleppey by private cab or pre-arranged transfers included in most Munnar Alleppey packages

Best Time to Visit Munnar and Alleppey

Munnar and Alleppey can be visited throughout the year, with each season offering a different experience depending on the weather, crowd levels, and the kind of holiday you prefer.

Peak Season (September to March)

• Temperature: 10°C to 30°C

September to March is the best time to visit Alleppey and explore Munnar tour packages, as the cool weather and comfortable backwater conditions are ideal for houseboat cruises and sightseeing. The post-monsoon landscape is lush and green, making it an excellent season for tea garden visits, waterfalls, nature walks, and romantic holidays.

Summer Season (April to May)

• Temperature: 18°C to 35°C

Summer is a great time for travellers looking to escape the heat of the plains, as Munnar remains relatively cool due to its higher altitude. While Alleppey experiences warmer and more humid weather during the day, evening houseboat cruises and backwater stays continue to offer a relaxing experience. This season also sees comparatively lower hotel rates than the peak months.

Monsoon Season (June to August)

• Temperature: 19°C to 29°C

The monsoon transforms Kerala into a lush green paradise, making it an excellent time for nature lovers and Ayurveda wellness holidays. Munnar's waterfalls and tea plantations look especially beautiful after the rains, while Alleppey's rain-washed backwaters offer a peaceful and scenic houseboat experience. Travellers should expect occasional showers in monsoon, but they also benefit from fewer crowds and attractive prices if they want to book a budget trip to Munnar and Alleppey.

Best Places to Visit on a Munnar and Alleppey Tour

Here are some of the top attractions to visit in Munnar and Alleppey:

Munnar Tea Gardens

The rolling tea plantations of Munnar are among Kerala's most iconic landscapes. By booking extensive Munnar Alleppey tour packages, visitors can stroll through lush estates, visit tea museums, and enjoy panoramic viewpoints while learning about the region's tea-growing heritage.

Mattupetty Dam & Echo Point

Located close to Munnar, Mattupetty Dam is known for its peaceful reservoir and boating opportunities, while nearby Echo Point is famous for its natural echo phenomenon and beautiful views of the surrounding hills. These are must-visit stops on most Munnar Alleppey tour packages.

Eravikulam National Park

Home to the endangered Nilgiri Tahr, Eravikulam National Park is one of Kerala's most popular wildlife attractions. Its rolling grasslands, scenic trekking trails, and breathtaking mountain views make it a favourite among nature lovers.

Alleppey Backwaters

The tranquil backwaters of Alleppey are the highlight of every Kerala holiday. An overnight houseboat cruise through coconut-lined canals and peaceful villages offers a unique way to experience the region's scenic beauty and local life.

The experience is often remembered for the small moments along the journey, which is why most Munnar and Alleppey packages by Thrillophilia include some time to explore Alleppey backwaters. Hariharan Iyer, who booked Scenic Trip to Kerala with FREE Visit to Sevenmallay Tea Estate, shared, “The backwaters were much larger than I expected. Gliding through on the houseboat from Alleppey watching locals fish, women making coir by the canal, children waving from the banks it felt like seeing Kerala from the inside rather than as a tourist….Thrillophilia had chosen a good property and the crew was attentive and friendly throughout.”

Alleppey Beach

Known for its golden sands and historic pier, Alleppey Beach is a great place to unwind after exploring the backwaters. Visitors can enjoy beautiful sunsets, local seafood, and a relaxed coastal atmosphere before concluding their journey.

Marari Beach

Located just 15 kilometres north of Alleppey, Marari is one of the lesser-known places to visit in Alleppey, offering a peaceful coastline, authentic fishing village experiences, professional Ayurvedic retreats, and early morning fish auctions.

Top Experiences to Include in Your Alleppey Munnar Tour

Below are some of the top things to do in Alleppey and Munnar:

Stay Overnight on a Houseboat in Alleppey

A traditional Kettuvallam cruise through Alleppey’s backwaters is Kerala’s absolute signature experience. Most overnight houseboat stays in Alleppey include highly authentic, freshly prepared Kerala meals cooked directly on board. The boat anchors at sunset, providing an incredibly quiet evening on the lake before returning to the jetty at 9:00 AM the next morning.

Walk Through Kolukkumalai Tea Estate

Located at nearly 8,000 feet above sea level, Kolukkumalai is highly recognised as one of the world’s highest organic tea plantations. The rough, unpaved jeep trail leading to the estate requires a highly durable 4x4 vehicle. The sunrise views reveal massive, layered mountain ridges stretching across the Kerala and Tamil Nadu border.

Explore Eravikulam National Park

Spread across the high-altitude grasslands of the Western Ghats, this highly protected reserve is the primary natural habitat of the endangered Nilgiri Tahr. The Rajamalai region inside the park offers sweeping views of the valleys. Private vehicles are strictly banned inside; visitors must use the mandatory forest department buses.

Experience Kalaripayattu and Kathakali

Considered one of the oldest martial art forms in India, Kalaripayattu performances showcase sword fighting and acrobatics deeply rooted in Kerala’s warrior traditions. Among the cultural things to do in Munnar, watching a Kalaripayattu performance is highly recommended. While booking Munnar Alleppey tour packages, pair the experience with an evening Kathakali performance, where classical dance-drama combines highly elaborate facial expressions and detailed makeup to narrate mythological stories.

Take a Shikara Ride Through Narrow Canals

Unlike massive houseboats that mainly travel the wide, open waterways of Vembanad Lake, small motorised Shikara boats can actively enter the highly narrow village canals. This allows you to witness local toddy tapping, coir weaving, and everyday backwater life closely.

Munnar is a serene hill station in the Western Ghats of Kerala, known for its cool climate, lush green hills and endless tea plantations. Set nearly 6,000 ft above sea level in the Idukki district, this region once served as the summer retreat of British officials. Its scenic valleys, rich forests and rare species like the Nilgiri Tahr make it one of South India’s most loved holiday spots. Many travellers exploring the region through Munnar tour packages come here to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and natural beauty.

The charm of Munnar lies in its stunning landscapes and the three rivers, Mattupetty, Periavaru and Nallathanni, that flow through the area. Numerous viewpoints offer breathtaking views of rolling hills, misty valleys and sparkling lakes. The pleasant climate and rocky terrains make it a popular destination for trekking, camping and outdoor adventure.

Munnar is also home to beautiful waterfalls, wildlife sanctuaries and calm nature trails. Attractions like the Salim Ali Bird Sanctuary, Eravikulam National Park and Atukkad Waterfall draw tourists from across the world. With scenic viewpoints, peaceful lakes and unique local experiences, the hill station is often included in many Kerala tour packages as a must-visit destination.

Alappuzha (Alleppey) is known as ‘the Venice of the East’. Offering the best tourist places in Alleppey, this charming place is the hub of Kerala’s backwaters and is home to a huge network of backwaters and more than thousand houseboats. The houseboats you find in the backwaters of Alappuzha are in fact a reworked version of the Kettuvallams of olden times. Kettuvallam is a Malayalam word, ‘Kettu’, means living structures and ‘Vallom’ means boat. In the olden days, kettuvallam or boat with a thatched roof that covers over wooden hulls was used to carry tons of rice and spices.

The modern houseboats are equipped with all the comforts of a good hotel room like air conditioners, modern toilets, cozy living rooms, a kitchen and even a balcony for angling. An uninterrupted view of life in the backwaters fringed with coconut trees can be enjoyed from a houseboat. A perfect place to unwind with its laidback canals and lush greenery. The Alappuzha beach with a 137-year-old pier extending into the sea and an old 17th-century lighthouse built by the Portuguese add to the magic of the place. It is famous for its boat races, marine products, and coir industry.

So get ready to wander around this small but chaotic city center and bus-stand area, with its modest grid of canals. Head west to the beach or in practically any other direction towards the backwaters and Alleppey becomes elegant and greenery-fringed, waning into a watery world of hamlets, punted canoes, toddy shops and, of course, houseboats. Float along and gaze over paddy fields of succulent green, curvaceous rice barges and village life along the banks. Indeed, it is here that nature has spent upon the land her richest bounties. Come and explore the best tourist places in Alleppey.
