7 Days Best of Kerala with Treehouse Stay – 6 Nights / 7 Days Kerala Nature & Experience Tour

Arrive at Cochin International Airport or Ernakulam Railway Station, where our representative will welcome you and assist with a private transfer to your hotel. After check-in and some rest, begin your guided exploration of Kochi, Kerala’s historic port city and an important starting point for many Kerala tour packages.

Your sightseeing begins in Fort Kochi, a heritage quarter shaped by centuries of maritime trade with the Portuguese, Dutch, and British. Visit St. Francis Church, the oldest European church in India, where Vasco da Gama was once buried. Continue to the Dutch Palace (Mattancherry Palace), famous for its finely preserved Kerala murals depicting scenes from the Ramayana and royal traditions of the Kochi dynasty.

Walk through the atmospheric lanes of Jew Town, lined with antique shops and spice traders, and visit the historic Paradesi Synagogue, one of the oldest functioning synagogues in the Commonwealth. This area reflects Kochi’s long-standing multicultural identity and trading legacy.

In the evening, attend a Kathakali dance performance, where dramatic facial expressions, elaborate costumes, and rhythmic music narrate stories from Indian epics—an essential cultural experience included in many Kerala cultural tours. Return to your hotel after the show.

Overnight stay in Cochin.

After breakfast, check out and begin your scenic drive to Munnar, one of Kerala’s most celebrated hill stations and a highlight of most Munnar tour packages.

The journey gradually ascends into the Western Ghats, passing rubber plantations, spice gardens, forest stretches, and cascading waterfalls. As altitude increases, the air turns cooler, and the landscape transforms into rolling tea estates that stretch across mist-covered hills.

On arrival in Munnar, check into your hotel set amidst tea plantations and mountain views. The remainder of the day is kept free to acclimatise to the cooler climate. You may enjoy a relaxed walk around the property, soak in panoramic views from your balcony, or simply unwind after the drive.

After breakfast, proceed for a guided sightseeing tour of Munnar, known for its pristine environment and biodiversity. Visit scenic viewpoints overlooking endless tea gardens, followed by Mattupetty Dam, where forested hills reflect beautifully in the reservoir waters.

Subject to park regulations and crowd management, explore Eravikulam National Park, home to the endangered Nilgiri Tahr and renowned for its high-altitude grasslands. The park offers insight into the fragile mountain ecosystem of the Western Ghats.

Later in the day, transfer to your treehouse accommodation, located in a secluded forest area away from the main town. Built using eco-friendly materials and elevated above ground level, the treehouse offers uninterrupted views of the hills and forests, creating a deep connection with nature—one of the most distinctive stays offered in Kerala nature tours.

In the afternoon, enjoy guided nature walks or light trekking through forest trails and plantation paths. An off-road jeep ride adds a touch of adventure as you explore rugged terrain and remote viewpoints. In the evening, gather around a campfire (weather permitting), enjoy dinner, and listen to the sounds of the forest as night falls.

After breakfast, check out and drive to Alleppey (Alappuzha), the heart of Kerala’s backwater region and a key destination in Kerala backwater tours.

On arrival, board a traditional Kerala houseboat, once used as a rice barge and now converted into a well-equipped floating home with private cabins and modern comforts. As the houseboat begins its cruise, glide through palm-lined canals, village waterways, and open lakes.

Observe daily life along the banks—fishermen casting nets, villagers washing clothes, children commuting by canoe, and lush paddy fields stretching into the distance. Freshly prepared lunch, evening tea, and dinner are served onboard as you relax on the deck and enjoy the slow rhythm of the backwaters.

By evening, the houseboat anchors in a quiet stretch of water as per Kerala regulations, offering a peaceful night surrounded by nature.

Overnight stay on the houseboat in Alleppey.

After breakfast onboard, disembark from the houseboat and begin your drive to Kovalam, Kerala’s most established beach destination and a popular choice in Kerala beach holiday packages.

On arrival, check into your beachside hotel or resort. The rest of the day is at leisure, allowing you to recover from travel and ease into the coastal pace of life. You may spend time at Lighthouse Beach, enjoy gentle sea breezes, or watch fishermen return with their daily catch as the sun sets over the Arabian Sea.

Overnight stay in Kovalam.

After breakfast, enjoy a full day at leisure in Kovalam. This day is intentionally kept flexible, especially suitable for honeymooners and slow travellers.

You may relax on the beach, stroll along the shoreline, explore local cafés, or browse small shops selling handicrafts and souvenirs. Ayurvedic massages or wellness therapies and water sports may be available locally (optional, at extra cost), though guests are free to spend the day entirely at rest.

The calm atmosphere of Kovalam makes it a natural extension of many Kerala honeymoon tours and wellness-focused itineraries.

Overnight stay in Kovalam.

After breakfast, check out and proceed to Trivandrum (Thiruvananthapuram), Kerala’s capital city. Visit the revered Padmanabhaswamy Temple, one of the richest and most sacred temples in India, dedicated to Lord Vishnu. Entry is subject to temple dress codes and regulations, which must be strictly followed.

Depending on your departure schedule, you may enjoy brief city sightseeing or shopping before being transferred to Trivandrum Airport or Railway Station for your onward journey.

Your Best of Kerala with Treehouse Stay tour concludes with lasting memories of forest retreats, serene backwaters, tranquil beaches, and Kerala’s rich cultural heritage.
