Where the money goes in Kerala

Worth the splurge

  • Overnight houseboat on the backwaters

Free or cheap

  • Ayurvedic couples’ massage
  • Tea-estate walk in Munnar
  • Kathakali performance
  • Bamboo rafting in Periyar

Where you stay changes the price

  • Alleppey backwaters: Houseboat nights on the canals and lakes.
  • Munnar: Tea hills and misty mornings.

Day to day, a couples’ massage costs about $50 and a good dinner for two about $25. Kerala is best over 5–8 nights; shorter stays cost more per night once fixed transfers and fees are spread out.

What a fair package should include

  • Stays for every night, with the room type named
  • Airport transfers
  • The meal plan: breakfast, half board or all-inclusive
  • Whether flights and visa fees are included

Is the quote fair?

Add the on-the-ground cost above for your comfort level, plus flights. A package that includes everything is usually 10–20% more than doing it yourself, for the convenience. Much more than that, ask what you’re paying for.
