Private Vehicle
Sightseeing
Daily Breakfast
Tour Overview
This 7 Days Kerala Romantic Honeymoon Tour is designed for couples who want a softer, scenic side of India with enough variety to make the journey feel special without becoming rushed. The route combines Kochi, the tea-covered hills of Munnar, the spice-growing region of Thekkady, Alleppey's famous backwaters and the relaxed coast near Marari.
It is a strong choice for international honeymooners, NRI couples and Indian travellers who want hills, nature, private transfers and time together rather than a sightseeing-heavy city itinerary. The programme balances guided experiences with free time so each destination has its own mood.
Munnar provides cool hill-country scenery and tea-estate landscapes, while Thekkady adds spice plantations and a more tropical mountain atmosphere. The journey then slows down in Alleppey, where a private backwater experience can become one of the most memorable parts of the honeymoon.
The final stay near Marari gives couples time by the Arabian Sea before departure. Romantic arrangements such as room decoration, candlelight dinner, upgraded stays, spa treatments or private photography can be added according to preference, hotel policy and budget.
Kerala weather and road conditions vary by season, especially in the hills and during monsoon periods. Sightseeing and transfer timings should therefore remain flexible rather than overly fixed.
Tour Highlights:
- Private romantic journey through Kerala's hills, backwaters and coast.
- Stay among the tea-covered landscapes of Munnar.
- Explore spice country around Thekkady.
- Enjoy a private backwater experience in Alleppey.
- Relax by the coast near Marari.
- Optional candlelight dinner, spa or honeymoon room decoration.
- Private transfers and flexible couple-friendly pacing.
Detailed Itinerary
Arrive in Kochi, where a representative will welcome you and assist with your private transfer to the hotel.
The first day is intentionally light so you can settle in and recover from your flight or train journey without immediately starting a full sightseeing schedule.
Depending on arrival time, enjoy a relaxed orientation around Fort Kochi or the waterfront area.
Couples celebrating a honeymoon or anniversary can request room decoration, cake or a special dinner in advance, subject to hotel policy and any applicable supplement.
Spend the evening together at leisure and prepare for the journey into Kerala's hill country the following morning.
Romantic Highlights:

- Relaxed first evening in Kochi.
- Optional honeymoon room decoration.
- Optional couple-special dinner.

Stop at suitable viewpoints or roadside attractions according to weather, traffic and current access conditions.
On arrival in Munnar, check in and take time to enjoy the cooler climate and surrounding tea-covered hills.

A tea-related visit or factory experience can be included where operating, giving you a closer look at Munnar's plantation culture.

If you prefer a slower honeymoon pace, the afternoon can instead be kept partly free for the resort, spa or a quiet walk.

Spend the afternoon at leisure by the coast, enjoy the pool or book an optional spa treatment according to the resort's facilities.
