December and early January are among the busiest weeks in Kerala. The weather is generally dry and pleasant, which makes it ideal for boat rides and slow days by the water. It also means rooms go early.
Book early
If you want a specific date, reserve as soon as your plans are fixed. Last-minute options in peak week are limited and prices are higher.
Plan a longer stay
Travelling in peak season can mean longer road journeys. A two- or three-night stay lets you rest properly. Our 2-night itinerary is a good starting point.
Choose a quieter base
Staying in Kainakary instead of Alleppey town can mean a calmer holiday. See Kainakary vs Alleppey town for a comparison.
