Overview


Looking to bond with your loved ones amidst nature, culture, beaches, and backwaters? This 8 Nights 9 Days Kerala Family Tour Package with Kanyakumari is your perfect answer. Curated to offer the best of Kerala’s charm and the spiritual serenity of Kanyakumari, this package blends lush hills, misty waterfalls, golden beaches, and timeless temples into one unforgettable experience. Whether you’re planning your first family vacation or a much-needed break with your loved ones, this itinerary ensures a smooth and scenic journey from Kanyakumari to Kerala’s finest destinations.

 

Your journey begins in Cochin (Kochi), the Queen of the Arabian Sea. After a warm welcome, you explore the colonial charm of Fort Kochi with a visit to the famous St. Francis Church – the oldest European church in India – and the Portuguese-built Mattancherry Palace. Later, lose yourself in the vibrant lanes of Cochin’s local markets, filled with spices, handicrafts, and colorful stories of the past.

 

Next, the scenic hills of Munnar await you. As you drive through winding roads, you’ll be greeted by cascading views of Cheeyappara and Valara Waterfalls and panoramic vistas from Karadippara Viewpoint. Once in Munnar, you can relax and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere. The following day, explore Munnar’s top attractions – from boating at Mattupetty Dam to visiting a local tea factory and the engaging Tea Museum. Echo Point adds a touch of natural wonder to your day before you head back for some leisure time with the family.

 

From the hills, you descend to the wild heart of Kerala – Thekkady. Home to the Periyar National Park and Tiger Reserve, Thekkady offers optional adventures like bamboo rafting or a boat safari on the Periyar Lake. In addition to wildlife experiences, the town invites you to stroll through fragrant spice plantations and busy local spice markets, a delight for all your senses.

 

The pace slows down as you travel to Alleppey, the Venice of the East. Here, you’ll board a deluxe sharing houseboat and cruise through calm backwaters fringed with coconut palms and paddy fields. Watch local life unfold on the riverbanks, spot colorful birds, and simply unwind. The overnight stay on the houseboat is a peaceful pause in your journey – a highlight for many families.

 

Continuing onward, you visit Jatayu Earth’s Center in Chadayamangalam – home to the world’s largest bird sculpture. It’s an exciting stop for both kids and adults. Then, head to Varkala, one of Kerala’s most scenic coastal towns. Explore Varkala Cliff, relax at beachside cafes, and take a walk along the golden sands of Papanasam Beach. As the sun sets over the Arabian Sea from the cliffs, the view leaves you speechless.

 

Next, the beach town of Kovalam welcomes you. With its crescent-shaped shorelines, enjoy time at Lighthouse Beach, Hawa Beach, and the main Kovalam Beach. It’s a perfect day of sun, sand, and sea with the family. Whether it’s building sandcastles or taking a dip in the ocean, Kovalam lets you slow down and reconnect.

 

No Kerala family trip is complete without visiting Kanyakumari – the southernmost tip of India. Just a short drive from Kovalam, Kanyakumari enchants with its cultural and spiritual significance. Visit the Vivekananda Rock Memorial by ferry, admire the towering Thiruvalluvar Statue, and pay respects at the ancient Kanyakumari Temple. After a fulfilling day of exploration, you return to Kovalam for your final overnight stay.

 

Finally, you proceed to Trivandrum, where you’ll be dropped off at the airport for your onward journey. With hearts full of memories and camera rolls packed with moments, your Kerala family vacation comes to a perfect end. The distance between Kanyakumari and Kerala is approx. 321 kms. 

 

Whether you're searching for Kanyakumari tour packages for family or planning a relaxed journey, this itinerary promises a blend of comfort, culture, and natural beauty – everything a family getaway should offer.

Bhutan... you beauty !!! My first travelling experience with JustWravel was great. Overall the Bhutan trip was wonderfully organized with interesting talk on the country and history. The itinerary was very well thought out, combining leisure time with other activities. Accommodations were good and the meals were decent as well. Also, met some great people on the trip. Our co-travelers were accommodating, helpful and thankfully had a great sense of humor. Special mention to Abhi, Trip Captain and Tashi, Tour guide for being so helpful and patient with us (specially me, during the hike). Kudos to the team. Keep doing great work and help people experience the joy of travelling.

We booked our bhutan trip with JustWravel which was our first community trip ever. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment with them. Our captain Abhi is a true rockstar and he made our trip really enjoyable and smooth. Kudos to team JW and really looking forward to more such expeditions ahead. Cheers!

Recently, I travel to Thailand through Just Wravel. It was a customized tour of 10 days and I must say they left no space for disappointment. All the stays were amazing. All the intercity transfers were arrange on point and hassle free. All the points mentioned to them while finalizing the itinerary were covered up to the mark. I definitely look forward for more travel tours with them. You guys made our travel smooth and memorable.

JustWravel Review by Jui Prabhu

Jui Prabhu

I went on my first international trip through JustWravel to Maldives, and it was the amazing trip i ever had. Everything was so sorted that I just had to take care of my passport nothing else. Ankit (JustWravel) has helped me throughout the process and reminded me of all the necessary steps and documents to carry from 1 week before. Everything was well managed and they were very considerate. They kept checking in with us if we were having any issues and if we were back at home safely or not. Surely going to book next trip from JustWravel only 2) I went on leh Ladakh trip and it was my first trip with strangers. Everything was so organized and the people (especially the coordinator , captain and driver, hotel staff) were so great that I want to be with them again.It was just a fantastic experience which I will never be able to explain through words. But the team was focused on the motive that we should enjoy the trip and have good memories of it.

JustWravel Review by Manisha Sharma

I recently went to Winter Spiti Valley trip with JustWravel which ended up being more as a trip with best friends. JustWravel had everything sorted for us be it transportation, safety, constant checkups, personalised care , accommodation, food and everything was super comfortable and amazing. Then it comes to the best part of this trip our trip captains - Abhishek and Ramneek He treated us like their own brother from day one and made sure all of us are having the time of our lives. They had constant checkups to ensure all of us are doing great physically. They had good knowledge about the place and shared the same with us as well. I would surely plan my next trip with JustWravel. I would like to mention an instance: I forgot my bag in the Volvo bus and there was nothing important in that bag but our captains still went out of their way to ensure that I got my bag safely.
