Arrive at Cochin airport. Meet and greet. Transfer to the hotel.
Early morning head straight to Fort Kochi, Kerala’s historic colonial trading centre. Spend a day exploring the Pardesi Synagogue on Jew Street, the Chinese fishing nets, St. Francis Church and other monuments here, stopping for food at the atmospheric cafes. End the evening with a cultural show at Greenix Village. For dinner, there’s fresh seafood at restaurants near Princess Street. Fort Kochi is very small and it’s easy to get around.
Leave for Alappuzha (60km/1½ hr) in the morning for a pre-booked 22-hour stay in a houseboat. Most operators start these trips by 11am so ensure that you are at the dock in time. The houseboat experience allows you to see the countryside in super comfort. Wake up to the sight of fishermen gathering their nets and heading to the villages.
You will be able to leave Alappuzha by noon and will easily manage to reach to hotel. After having some rest you can explore the local market.
A day at your own and in the evening the car will pick you up from the Hotel & transfer you to the International Airport as per your flight schedule to fly back home.
