Best Places To Visit In Thekkady

Let the experts guide you to the best of Thekkady to experience rich culture and thrilling adventure, as per our traveler suggestions

Thekkady is a vital part of any itinerary for a visit to the state of Kerala. There are a number of places to visit in Thekkady. Covering most of the aspects of an ideal vacation for tourists, there are views of pristine natural beauty, of religious significance and of cultural importance. Due to the main attraction being the nearby Periyar Tiger Reserve, Thekkady tourist places are more oriented towards nature and its beauty. However, hidden amidst the beautiful forests are a few different sights that are unique to this region. This is an attempt to make a list of Thekkady’s places to visit in a comprehensive yet brief manner.

The main attraction in terms of places to visit has to be the Periyar Tiger Reserve. One of the most beautiful wildlife sanctuaries in the whole of India, The Tiger Reserve is the crown jewel of places to visit in Thekkady. Blessed with a large variety of flora and fauna, there is much more to see in the sanctuary even for those not particularly interested in nature. Home to many indigenous species, not the least of which is the majestic Bengal tiger, a lot of Thekkady’s tourism related activities are based around it. Apart from the tiger, the reserve is also home to a number of birds, some of them exceedingly rare like the Steppe Gull and the Paddyfield Warbler.

The reserve is also very well known for the number of elephants that are present here. Rounding off the list of mammals are also the Nilgiri Tahir, the lion tailed Macaque and Salim Ali’s fruit bat. The Periyar Tiger Reserve and Wildlife Sanctuary is the most commonly visited and loved of the various places to see in Thekkady.

Sumit Mahapatra

Jamshedpur

Sumit's 4 days trip to Thekkady

Our journey was very nice. Everything was very well executed except for the last day of the trip there was a miscommunication from your side regarding which place to visit that led us to be detained for some time and as a result in the last moment our houseboat was changed.Everything should be cryst

al clear from beforehand so that the people don't get unnecessary Harrassment for the inconvenience caused. Please work upon that Munnar sight seeing was very great.

Locketpocket

Locketpocket's 4 days trip to Thekkady

Trip was good. Didn’t exactly go as per the itinerary. As many options were mentioned in it but as the time was limited couldn’t explore more. Also certain places have network issues like the national park in Munnar. N ticket booking is accepted only via the e-ticket kiosk for which we wasted almost

an hour trying to do the bookings. Their wi - fi there never worked. If the trip advisor could Inform travelers in advance which network works well specially in Munnar then may b the travellers could arrange for a sim before hand. Also there is an option for ticket booking for the wild life boating online. But not all travelers r aware of the same. That could b also informed so that the tickets can be booked Atleast 1 day in advance. Overall experience was satisfactory.. also the waterfalls in summer r dry. This is not mentioned to the travellers so sight seeing to these places r not worth it. Something better can be planned instead Have taken back some good memories from the trip. The back water house boat experience was good. The boat had wooden carvings.. our driver also was very cooperative n took good care of us during the trip. Would recommend the same driver to more passengers travelling in the future.

Niravhemani

Mumbai

Niravhemani's 7 days trip to Thekkady

Mr. Robin had planned 5N/6D Wayanad, Kerala trip with hotels and cab service from Calicut. Overall, All the arrangements were good, cab driver was decent. Areas of Improvement: Our cab driver Mr. Vinu informed us that Many sightseeing and Safari locations mentioned in the travel itinerary planned

by Mr. Robin like Soochipara Waterfalls, Wayanad Muthanga Wildlife Safari, Kuruvadweep Island, Thusharagiri waterfalls were closed due to Forest Department issue. He suggested that we cannot go to these places as they are closed for many days. Ideally, we would expect the travel booking manager to inform us about such temporary closure of sight seeing areas before we reach Wayanad, so that we could have planned and booked tickets for other Wildlife Safari's and sight seeing like Bandipur National Park, Mudumalai Tiger Reserve, Sulthan Bathery. We only realized that once we reached there. We even tried to book online Safari tickets to Bandipur when we reached there, but the tickets need to be booked atleast 3-4 days in advance. The price of the overall trip (Resort stay + Cab) could have been more competitive given a lot of tourists had skipped coming to Wayanad in May 2024 due to heat wave (hot weather conditions during day time). Most people were local Keralites. Overall, it was a decent experience with hotel stay, food and travel arrangements. Mr. Robin is prompt in answering queries through call / message making an interactive booking experience.

Padma's 4 days trip to Thekkady

Kerala trip was good. We had requested for English / Tamil speaking driver., but the driver could speak only Malayalam. Also, we were not informed about the functioning of Houseboat. Boathouse stopped at 5.30 pm and resumed next day morning. Rest of the time, it was like a stay at a hotel. But

hospitality was good.

Pune

Shrikanth's 4 days trip to Thekkady

First of all I will thank you Pallavi Pandey for politely listening me & giving proper guidance while making the Iternary.. Hotels were very good & my family was very comfortable. Driver Albin Savy handled all the small small things very professionally right from picking us from Kochi Airport on fir

st day to dropping us at Trivendrum Airport on last day. Breakfast provides by the hotels was very hygienic. Overall I will rate 10/10 to the service provided to me by the travel agent & all my further trips will plan from Travel Triangle only. Visit to Eravikulam National park at Munnar Elephant ride & Kalaripayattu at Thekkady Houseboat experience was best at Alleppey Kanyakumari & Padmanabhan Swami temple visit was the best part of the trip .
