What this means is, you can visit Kerala with your family throughout the year. Why you visit may decide when you visit. The peak season or the best season to visit Kerala with your family is from September to March when the climate is comparatively colder and comfortable. December to February is mainly dry season when the weather is sunny and warm. There are minimum rainfall and humidity — the temperature hovers between 28-32°C. Kerala being a large state, the weather and the climate is suitable for tourists throughout the year in different parts. Visiting Kerala during peak season with your family As mentioned above, there is a reason September-March is the peak season, and this is why hundreds of thousands of tourists throng to the state during these months. Some of the best places to visit Kerala during the peak season are Munnar, Alleppey, Kovalam, Kumarakom and Thekkady. Taxi services are readily available to these tourist destinations. It is better to get reservations way in advance. Christmas and New Year fall during the peak season, and many people prefer to spend these festivals in the exotic Kerala surroundings. Whether you want to enjoy cultural events, scenic beauty or visit places of worship, the peak season, although comparatively expensive, climate-wise is comfortable and pleasant. This is the perfect time to visit backwaters and beaches. Due to winters, hill stations are more refreshing. In places like Munnar and Thekkady, you can enjoy the views of mist-clad mountain tops and cloudy tea gardens. The time and the surroundings are perfect for long and tranquil nature walks with your family. Famous events and activities during the peak season in Kerala for your family are:- Cochin Carnival (January) Kumarakom Boat Race (September – October) Aranmula Boat Race (September) Indira Gandhi Boat Race (December) Athachamayam (August- September) Onam (September) Chembai Music Festival (November) For free travel consultation through WhatsApp. Contact us now.

Visiting Kerala for Ayurvedic treatment People come to Kerala for Ayurvedic treatment during the monsoon season because one cannot spend much time outdoors when it rains a lot. Listening to raindrops is soothing and therapeutic. There is no dust in the atmosphere. The greenery is lush. There is new life sprouting everywhere. People have been coming to Kerala for Ayurvedic treatments for thousands of years. These treatments are a mix of an ancient healing system, yoga and various forms of massages and meditation techniques. Since Kerala has an abundant supply of medicinal plants, lots of healing oils are produced that are then used for multiple types of massages. Why visit Kerala with family for Ayurvedic treatment? Treatment isn’t always for the sick. It also rejuvenates your body and soul. Spending a few days in an Ayurvedic health resort with your family brings your family closer. You get to interact with nature along with your family. There is peace everywhere. No modern-day distractions are allowed in most of the Ayurvedic treatment centres. It is detoxification of mind as well as the soul. Other reasons for visiting Kerala during the Monsoons As mentioned above, people come to Kerala during monsoons for Ayurvedic treatments, but even if you want to enjoy nature’s beauty, you are not going to be disappointed. Due to incessant rains, there is water and greenery everywhere. Rivers and ponds are overflowing. The backwaters are brimming with water and life: the mighty waterfalls roar joy and spread mists of water for miles. Nature is full of life and both flora and fauna overflow with nourishment and freshness. You can get boats on the backwaters and you can spend a couple of days with your family on the serene waters while the raindrops play for you the music of timelessness. Since monsoons are not the peak season, you can get great discounts during this season. There is more peace because fewer tourists are jostling to get accommodation.

Visiting Kerala during the off-season with your family The off-season is between May and September. As mentioned above, in reality, there is no off-season in Kerala, but still, compared to the monsoons and the peak season, tourists are fewer during the off-season, and consequently, you can get great deals for your family. Kerala remains beautiful and exotic throughout the year. If you can bear some humidity and warmth, you are going to enjoy the peaceful surroundings without much interruptions from fellow tourists. During the off-season, you have more places to visit and less competition. This is a great time to spend some quality time with your family. The great thing about off-season is that you can enjoy everything that Kerala has to offer, but at lower rates and without crowds. You can get traditional Ayurvedic treatment even during the off-season with the only difference that the raindrops may not give you the company. You can visit the hill stations, but it will not be as cool as during December-January. The nature resorts will not be as lush as they are doing monsoons but still, they will be greener compared to any other part of the country. The backwaters will be abundantly available to you and your family. The beaches are still there with all the glory of the Arabian Sea. As you have read, throughout the year you can plan a great visit to Kerala with your family. You can travel by bus from all major railway stations. You can get our taxi service from every major airport, railway station and bus stop. If you want your family to enjoy the lush greenery of Kerala from the comfort of a private vehicle, then there is nothing like hiring a taxi that accommodates your family completely.
