Kerala is one of India's most rewarding family destinations — safe, green and endlessly varied. In a single week your family can cruise the backwaters on a houseboat, spot wildlife at Periyar, ride through misty tea hills and build sandcastles on a gentle beach. Our Kerala family tour packages are planned with comfortable stays, sensible driving distances and something for every age. From curious little ones to grandparents, everyone finds their moment in God's Own Country.

Why Kerala works for families

Kerala is compact, green and welcoming, so families can enjoy hills, backwaters, wildlife and beaches without long, tiring journeys. Comfortable resorts, familiar food options and a gentle pace make it easy to travel with children and older relatives alike.

Backwaters & houseboats

A houseboat cruise is a highlight for families — safe, comfortable and full of wonder as you glide past villages and paddy fields. Meals are cooked fresh on board and the pace is wonderfully relaxed.

  • Spacious family and multi-bedroom houseboats
  • Meals and cruising included
  • Calm, shallow backwater routes

Wildlife & nature

Periyar's boat safari and Munnar's Eravikulam National Park bring families close to Kerala's wildlife and greenery in an easy, accessible way. Spice and tea plantation visits add a fun, hands-on element to the trip.

Comfortable stays & easy travel

We choose family-friendly hotels and resorts with the amenities that matter, and keep daily drives sensible so no one tires out. Private vehicles with experienced drivers make getting around simple.

Best time to travel

September to March is the most pleasant window, with lush greenery and peak comfort in December–January — great for the school holidays. The June to August monsoon is quieter and dramatically green.

Travelling with my parents and two kids, I was nervous. Holiday Vibez planned every single day perfectly, and the Alleppey houseboat was the highlight. We are already planning our next trip with them.
