A Quick Look Into our 6 Day Itinerary Kerala

Our 6 day itinerary Kerala is designed to offer a smooth and memorable journey in “God’s Own Country.” The journey starts from Cochin which is one of the most popular cities in Kerala.

After Cochin, our tour moves to Thekkady which is a beautiful destination famous for green forests, spice plantations and wildlife. Next, you will visit Kumarakom which is a peaceful place surrounded by lakes and natural beauty. After that, the trip continues to Alleppey which is one of the most famous backwater destinations of Kerala. Every destination in this journey offers a different experience.

 

Journey Through Kerala’s Beautiful Destinations

Here’s the list of major destinations covered in our Kerala 5 nights 6 days itinerary:

Cochin

You will visit popular places including Mattancherry, St. Francis Church, Chinese fishing nets, Dutch Palace, Fort Kochi area and Jewish Synagogue. This city also has local markets where you can shop for spice and handicrafts.

Thekkady

One of the main attractions here is Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary where travelers can enjoy boat rides and spot animals like elephants, deer and birds.

Best Season for a Kerala Holiday

The ideal season to enjoy a 5-day Kerala tour is from winter to early summer. During early summer (September to March), the weather stays pleasant & comfortable for sightseeing. Travelers can enjoy cool air, fresh greenery and serene backwaters throughout the journey. The winter season is especially good for relaxing holidays and houseboat experiences in Alleppey. Monsoon season (June to August) makes Kerala look lush, green, fresh and beautiful, but heavy rains may affect travel plans.

We booked a trip to Ladakh based on positive reviews on tripadvisor. It was a personal 7 nights 8 days trip. They asked us our preferences and came up with an itinerary and price with 3 or 4 star hotel options. The trip included leh, pangong tso, shyok,nubra valley, turtuk, alchi and travelling through high altitude snowy passes khardungla and changla and kargil (we added kargil). We went late june early july. It was beautiful and flowers were starting to come up, and also snowmelts. A bit scary in shyok as the road in places disappeared and we drove over stones and through water for a few kilometres. We saw marmot, wild donkey and free horses, yak and several birds. The mountains are majestic. The altitude does make you a bit breathless, none of us had any health condition and we felt it. Our local contact in leg provided by traeminent tours advised us on altitude sickness and he emphasised several times on contacting him if we ever felt unfortable beyond the usual symptoms, how much and when to sleep. We followed his instructions carefully. We also took diomax for tge altitude breathlessness the first night which helped but it makes you thirsty and gives you a headache so we stopped taking it after. For our stay in Pangong tso our Leh person Gurmeet told us to take an oxygen cylinder reason being its higher altitude and there are no hospitals. An oxygen cylinder has 3 hours worth of oxygen should you need to drive to a hospital. We considered the Rs 2,500 an insurance and we did feel more breathless at pangong. While we could have managed without oxygen the oxygen did help ease the tightness in our chest (maybe coming from hot humid sea level singapore we took probably longer to adapt). We chose the 3 star option and did not regret it. Most cases the rooms were spacious and had great views. At pangong tso we asked to upgrade to a room with a view for an additional Rs 6.6k per person we were 3, sharing a room so we paid Rs 19.8k we felt was steep but were told taxes are high and dinner was included. Our Rs 51k per person for the trip included an excellent calm careful and informative driver Jimme and a sturdy spacious vehicle, breakfast and in two places dinner. Jimme's playlist is also great so after our trip we asked him for it. We saw beautiful monastries at Alchi, Lamayuru, Diskit, moonland the impressive Indus, Shyok and Suru rivers which we drove along. Jagmohan our tour coordinator was helpful and accommodating of our requests to add Kargil. Over all an excellent trip and we were glad we chose Traeminent.  July, 2026

It's was a pleasant trip. 6 days and 5 nights - 3 couple. Cover kochi, Kollam and alappuzha boat house. The driver was good and helpful. All hotel- casino kochi and fragrant nature Kollam was too good. Boathouse experience was great too. The helper Abu in boathouse cooked super fast and delicious food( chicken, prawn,fish and crab).

We recently completed a tour to Kashmir, Amritsar, Shimla, and Manali organised by Traeminent, and it was truly a fantastic experience from start to finish. The itinerary was very well planned, allowing us to comfortably explore each destination without feeling rushed. Kashmir was absolutely breathtaking — from the serene Dal Lake to the stunning landscapes of Gulmarg. The houseboat stay was a highlight. Amritsar added a spiritual dimension to the trip, with a seamless visit to the Golden Temple and Wagah Border. Shimla and Manali were equally memorable, offering beautiful mountain views, enjoyable local experiences, and well-coordinated sightseeing. The toy train ride in Shimla and the overall hill station experience were particularly special. The logistics throughout the trip were handled efficiently, transport was comfortable, hotels were well chosen, and the support from the Traeminent team was consistent and dependable. We always felt well taken care of. Overall, it was a smooth, enjoyable, and memorable journey. I would highly recommend Traeminent to anyone looking for a well-organised and enriching travel experience.
