Conversation: Planning Your 3-Day Munnar Itinerary from Cochin
Jisha: Hello, is this Mr. Ravi Kumar?
Guest: Yes.
Jisha: Good morning Sir! My name is Jisha and I am calling from Paradise Holidays Kerala. This call is regarding your enquiry about Kerala tour packages.
Guest: Yes, I’m interested in Munnar only. How long do you suggest for the trip?
Jisha: For just Munnar, I recommend a minimum of 3 days and 2 nights. This allows you to cover all main sightseeing spots. If you prefer a more relaxed trip, you can add an extra night.
Jisha: When are you planning your trip and how many people will be traveling?
Guest: I’m from Bangalore. Do you also include flights?
Jisha: We do provide flight bookings through our website, but our package starts from your arrival in Kerala. For Munnar, Cochin is the ideal arrival and departure point, either airport or railway station.
Jisha: On Day 1, you’ll travel to Munnar with stops at Cheeyapara and Valara waterfalls and tea plantations. You’ll reach your resort by evening. Day 2 is full of Munnar’s key attractions. I’ll share the detailed itinerary and hotel options via email.
Jisha: You can also add a day trip to Athirapally Waterfalls on the way to Munnar for an extra cost.
Guest: Is Munnar really worth visiting?
Jisha: Absolutely! Munnar is a mesmerizing hill station filled with endless tea plantations, valleys, and mountains. It’s one of Kerala’s must-visit destinations. I suggest staying at a 4-star resort with balcony views for a premium experience.
Guest: Does the package include all meals?
Jisha: The package includes complimentary breakfast. Dinner can be added on request. Lunch is usually at restaurants near sightseeing points but isn’t included.
Guest: Will there be time for Cochin sightseeing?
Jisha: The drive between Munnar and Cochin takes about 4 to 4.5 hours. Sightseeing in Cochin depends on your departure time. The driver is available till about 7 PM on your last day, so you’ll need to leave Munnar early for Cochin sightseeing.
Jisha: I will email the full itinerary and hotel details to you, as well as send it via WhatsApp. Please review and let me know if you want any changes. I will call tomorrow to discuss further. Thank you for your time, Sir.
