AlleppeyKumarakomAlleppey

Step off the train at Alleppey and into your air-conditioned cab, ready to trade the station bustle for the calm of Kerala’s backwaters. Spend your first afternoon drifting through the brackish lagoons and canals that lace the Malabar coast, watching village life unfold along the water’s edge. Overnight in Alleppey, then head to Kumarakom the next morning. Explore the Vembanad Bird Sanctuary on the banks of Vembanad Lake, where migratory birds gather depending on the season. Afternoon takes you to Marari Beach, just 11 km from town, for a quiet stretch on the sand. Your final morning, drive to Kottayam for drop-off, carrying the memory of backwater reflections and coastal air. This easy-paced trip suits anyone craving a short, scenic escape into Kerala’s lagoon-and-beach rhythm.
