Day 3: 

By the way on day 2 we experienced rain in Munnar. It was really mesmerizing in the rain, and it felt like heaven on earth. So, today we traveled to Mattupetty Dam and lake. You can almost touch the cloud from there. In the lake you can experience boating and echo of your voice too. It was a relaxing day and spent most of the time soothing our eyes looking all the beauty before us. Evening spent attending Bonfire at the hotel.

Today we have started in the morning to reach our next destination Alleppey. Distance from Munnar to Alleppey is around 175 kms and takes around 5 hours to reach there. On the way we had lunch with coconut oil made food. After reaching at Alleppey we checked into the Hotel and after few moments went for backwater boating. In Alleppey you can stay for a day only for backwater. We hired a small motorboat; it took around 3 hours to and from go through the backwater visit. It was so splendid. We Visited the Vembanand Lake, and it was like boating in the SEA.  So overall it was exciting journey throughout the day.

Now this is time to leave Alleppey and heads towards our final destination Kovalam in our itinerary.  It's around 160 kms from Alleppey to reach Kovalam and takes around 4 hours by car. We stayed at Hotel Samudra which is government hotel and situated just beside the Arabian Sea. We had great leisure time there in Kovalam. In the evening, we went out to have fresh breath at the sea and visited the Watchtower. Though we missed Poovar due to some blockings out there, but it was great time at Kovalam. There were so much foreign tourists and lots of sea food available at the sea beach. We enjoyed spectacular sunset from Kovalam Beach also the beach is so clean I have ever seen.

Egypt's ancient sites are concentrated along a fairly compact stretch of the Nile, which makes it possible to see an enormous amount — pyramids, temples, tombs, and a living, modern capital — in a single well-planned trip. This guide covers the main stops from Cairo down to Aswan and Abu Simbel, plus a coastal detour to Alexandria, along with the practical detail's worth knowing before you book. ✨ Cairo Cairo is Egypt's capital and by far its largest city, and it puts several of the country's most significant ancient sites within a short drive of a thoroughly modern metropolis. Pyramids of Giza: The last surviving Wonder of the Ancient World, and still the main reason many travelers come to Egypt at all. The Great Pyramid was bui...
