Munnar Thekkady Tour Packages

Reviewed By Thrillophilia Operational Team
The price ranging between INR 19,000 to INR 40,000 and 4 to 8 days marked separately on the calendar, and a Munnar and Thekkady tour package can take you through Kerala's tea hills and forest reserve in one connected trip, the final cost is shaped by hotel choice, houseboat nights and how many extra towns join the plan.

Cochin International Airport is where most journeys begin, roughly 4 hours by road from Munnar and 5 to 6 hours from Thekkady, while Madurai Airport sits closer for travellers coming from the Thekkady side.

Weather stays cool and dry from October through March, which is why itineraries are usually timed around these months rather than the middle of the year which is usually wetter, and this is when most Munnar Thekkady tour package bookings are at peak.

If one destination is all you need, a standalone Munnar tour package or a separate Thekkady tour package still gets booked fairly often. What changes most travellers' minds is the distance between the two, only 90 to 100 kilometres through Idukki district, covered in three to four hours on roads lined with cardamom and pepper vines rather than a day lost to transit.

That short stretch is exactly what makes this pairing work better than combining a hill station with a beach town several hours off. Munnar brings altitude, cool air and rolling plantations, Thekkady brings dense forest cover and wildlife sightings, so a Munnar and Thekkady tour package puts two very different sides of Kerala within a single, manageable loop instead of forcing a choice between them.

Once you land, the days fill up fast but at your pace, places to visit in Munnar welcomes you with the calmness wrapped in its scenery, such as Eravikulam National Park, Mattupetty Dam and the Kannan Devan tea gardens sit alongside things to do in Munnar like factory visits and a Kundala Lake boat ride.

The trip takes you through the serene places of Thekkady, namely the Periyar Tiger Reserve and the spice gardens near Kumily, with things to do in Thekkady covering bamboo rafting and an evening Kathakali performance.

4 days works for someone with limited leave, since it allows a full day in Munnar and a full day in Thekkady with the road transfer eating into neither, whereas the six to eight day versions suit travellers keen on adding Alleppey's backwaters or a Kochi city stop, where the extra nights go toward new sightseeing rather than another transfer.

Choosing a Munnar and Thekkady tour package really comes down to what else you want to see on the way, and a four-day Munnar Thekkady package fits a short leave window without cutting into either town's share of time.
