البرنامج يوماً بيوم

اليوم 1

Kochi

Fort Kochi on foot: the Chinese fishing nets, St Francis — where Vasco da Gama was first buried — Santa Cruz Basilica, Mattancherry Palace and the synagogue at Jew Town.

اليوم 2

Kochi → Munnar

Met at Cochin International and straight up into the Western Ghats. The road climbs past the Cheeyappara and Valara waterfalls and into cardamom country; by the last hour the tea has taken over the hillsides entirely.

اليوم 3

Munnar

A full day in the tea country. Eravikulam for the Nilgiri tahr, Mattupetty dam and lake, Echo Point, Kundala, and the Tea Museum where they still roll a batch by hand. Top Station if the cloud lifts.

اليوم 4

Munnar → Thekkady

Down through the hills into spice country. The afternoon is Periyar's: a walk through a working cardamom and pepper plantation with the grower, and the optional lake boat ride before dusk.

اليوم 5

Thekkady → Alleppey

To the backwaters and aboard the houseboat around midday. The rest of the afternoon is Vembanad — paddy bunds, village landings, fishermen working the Chinese nets — and dinner cooked on board as the light goes.

اليوم 6

Alleppey → Kovalam

South to the coast for Lighthouse, Hawa and Samudra beaches.

اليوم 7

Kovalam & Poovar

A day trip south to the Poovar estuary and its mangroves, with the rest of the day on the beach.

اليوم 8

Kovalam → Kanyakumari

To the southern tip: the Vivekananda Rock Memorial, the Thiruvalluvar statue, the Gandhi Mandapam and a sunset over three seas.

اليوم 9

Kanyakumari → Madurai

North to Madurai and the Meenakshi Amman temple — the gopurams, the thousand-pillar hall, and the evening ceremony. Thirumalai Nayak Palace as well.

اليوم 10

Madurai → Rameswaram

Across the Pamban bridge to the island. The Ramanathaswamy temple corridors, Agni Theertham, the Kalam memorial and Dhanushkodi at the far end.

اليوم 11

Rameswaram → Thanjavur

Inland to the Chola capital and the Brihadeeswarar temple, a thousand years old and still the reason to come. The palace and the Saraswathi Mahal library too.

اليوم 12

Thanjavur → Puducherry

To the old French quarter — White Town, the promenade, the Aurobindo ashram, and Auroville with the Matrimandir viewpoint.

اليوم 13

Puducherry → Ooty

Up into the Nilgiris. Ooty lake, the botanical gardens, Doddabetta and a tea factory on the way in.

اليوم 14

Ooty → Mysuru

Down through Bandipur to Mysuru. The palace — lit on a Sunday evening — Chamundi hill, St Philomena's and Brindavan gardens.

اليوم 15

Mysuru → Coorg

Into the coffee country. Abbey Falls, Raja's Seat for the sunset, Madikeri fort and a plantation walk with the grower.

اليوم 16

Coorg → Bengaluru

The last drive, to Bengaluru for the flight. Bangalore Palace, Vidhana Soudha, Cubbon Park or Lalbagh if there is an afternoon to spare.
