You may go through below tips which will help you Kerala Tour Package Planning as well as during your travel to Kerala or to South India. This is written to provide a general awareness on the places which can be visited and with the consultation of \u00a0tour expert, finalization of the itinerary is advised.<\/p>\n

Arrival and Departure during\u00a0Kerala Tour Package Planning<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. \n

    For Cochin arrival, code for the airport is COK, railway station is ERN and ERS and for bus Vytila or Ernakulam. For departure, if your last destination is Trivandrum or Kanyakumari book from Trivandrum instead of driving back to Cochin. Same as the case for Calicut. Book from Cochin if your last destination is Cochin, Alleppey or Munnar. This is an important aspect during Kerala Tour Package Planning<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Selection of Vehicle for Kerala Tour Package Planning<\/h2>\n
      \n
    1. \n

      Select as per the number of people traveling by considering space to keep luggage. Luggage career is not allowed by RTO in Kerala. This is crucial for Kerala Tour Package Planning<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Selecting Hotel for Kerala Tour Package Planning<\/h2>\n
        \n
      1. \n

        Most of the hotels especially in Munnar is away from town, which has a better ambiance. Select between hotels, resorts, homestays as per your likings and consider the distance from town. Changing the hotel after your arrival will waste a lot of time and your holiday mood will be affected. Some hotels do not allow last-minute cancellation too. Selection of hotel is important for Kerala Tour Package Planning<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Selecting Houseboat for Kerala Tour Package Planning<\/h2>\n
          \n
        1. \n

          Houseboat is an authentic product of Kerala which is a different experience than staying in a hotel. Keeping in mind that the boat is always in water and the rooms or facilities are not like a hotel makes you to enjoy this better.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Sightseeing for Kerala Tour Package<\/h2>\n
            \n
          1. \n

            There are a lot of sightseeing spots mentioned in the itinerary as well as extra activities in all the places. I would suggest you to go sightseeing first and use your extra time for activities, which are chargeable. If you go for activities first you may have to miss most of the sightseeing. This is the first thing you should consider while Kerala Tour Package Planning<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

          2. \n

            Complains during the tour \u2013 If you find any issue during the tour, make sure the same is reported at the moment to have a solution. If any complaint is raised after the tour a tour operator would not be in a position to help you. If in case of accidents or strikes please cooperate with the agent to sort the issue and to find alternate arrangements. No reputed operator tries to cheat a customer intentionally.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Selecting Destinations during Kerala Tour Package Planning<\/h2>\n
              \n
            1. \n

              While selecting the places of visit, try to avoid hectic travel and select number of destinations as per the number of days you can spend in Kerala. A detailed guide is as below.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
