Why this route works
Kerala’s highlights are spread from the Western Ghats to the coast. Starting in Kochi and finishing in Trivandrum means you never drive back the same way, and each stop is only three to five hours from the last. You get two nights in Munnar, two in Thekkady, then the backwaters and the beach.
