A trip covering Kochi and Munnar is a journey through Kerala’s contrasting landscapes—from the bustling heritage city of Kochi to the serene misty hills of Munnar. While Kochi, also known as Cochin, is a thriving port city rich in history, culture, and colonial architecture, Munnar is a breathtaking hill station that boasts rolling tea plantations, mist-covered peaks, and lush valleys. This 2-night, 3-day tour offers a perfect blend of urban charm and natural beauty, ensuring an unforgettable Kerala experience.
Day 1: Arrival & Exploring the Heritage City of Kochi
Upon arrival at Cochin International Airport or Ernakulam Railway Station, our executive will welcome you and take you to your hotel for check-in and freshening up.

Next, visit the Santa Cruz Cathedral Basilica and St. Francis Church, two of India’s oldest churches, both renowned for their stunning European architecture and historical significance.
In the afternoon, head towards Fort Kochi & Mattancherry, where colonial-era buildings, heritage palaces, and the influence of the Portuguese, Dutch, and British transport you back in time. Don’t miss the iconic Chinese Fishing Nets at Fort Kochi Beach, where you can witness local fishermen at work.
End your day with a peaceful stroll along Marine Drive, where the skyline meets the Arabian Sea, offering a spectacular sunset view.

After an early morning departure from Kochi, embark on a scenic 3.5-hour drive to Munnar, watching the landscape shift from coastal charm to rolling tea plantations and mist-covered valleys.

Next, visit Attukad and Lakkom Waterfalls, two of the most enchanting waterfalls in the region, perfect for photography and nature walks.
For wildlife lovers, Eravikulam National Park, home to the endangered Nilgiri Tahr, is a must-visit. Alternatively, spend time at Blossom International Park, a beautifully landscaped garden perfect for a leisurely stroll.
Wrap up your Munnar experience with a visit to the Tata Tea Museum, where you can learn about the art of tea-making and sample freshly brewed Munnar tea.
