Your Trusted Tourist Taxi Service Across Kerala

Kerala earns its "God's Own Country" reputation every day — with backwaters that have no equivalent anywhere else, hill stations wrapped in tea and mist, wildlife reserves where elephants walk free, and a coastline that stretches over 500 kilometres. But experiencing all of this depends on how you get around. Public transport exists, but it does not connect tourist destinations conveniently. Ride-hailing apps are unreliable outside city limits. A dedicated tourist taxi, driven by someone who knows both the roads and the destinations, remains the most practical and comfortable way to see Kerala. Avancer Travel Solutions has provided exactly this since 2012, covering every major tourist circuit in the state.

How a Tourist Taxi Works in Kerala

If you have not booked a tourist taxi in India before, here is how it works with us. You can also review our tourist taxi rates to understand the pricing structure before booking. You book a vehicle and driver for the duration of your trip — whether that is a single day of sightseeing in Kochi or a ten-day circuit across the state. The driver stays with you throughout, handling all navigation, parking, and local logistics. You decide the itinerary; the driver makes it happen.

Unlike ride-hailing services, your driver is not a stranger who changes every ride. You build familiarity, the driver learns your preferences, and by day two, they know whether you like early starts or late mornings, long drives or frequent stops.

Popular Tourist Circuits We Cover

The Classic Kerala Circuit: Kochi - Munnar - Thekkady - Alleppey - Kovalam

This is the route most first-time visitors choose, and for good reason. It covers hill stations, wildlife, backwaters, and beaches in roughly seven to ten days. The drives between destinations range from two to five hours, with each leg offering distinct scenery.

• Kochi to Munnar: ~130 km, 4 hours through hill roads and tea estates
• Munnar to Thekkady: ~90 km, 3 hours through spice plantations
• Thekkady to Alleppey: ~150 km, 4-5 hours descending to the backwaters
• Alleppey to Kovalam: ~160 km, 4 hours along the coast through Kollam

We handle this circuit regularly and can suggest the ideal number of nights at each stop based on your interests and pace.

North Kerala: Wayanad and Kozhikode

Wayanad's misty forests, tribal heritage sites, and cooler climate attract travellers looking for something beyond the standard circuit. Kozhikode (Calicut) adds history, authentic Malabar cuisine, and Kappad Beach — where Vasco da Gama first landed. This circuit works well as a four-to-five-day trip.

Southern Kerala: Kovalam, Varkala, and Kanyakumari

Beach lovers and spiritual travellers gravitate here. Kovalam's lighthouse beach, Varkala's cliffside views, and the southernmost tip of India at Kanyakumari make a compelling three-to-four-day route.

Off-Beat Destinations

For repeat visitors or those wanting something different, we cover Vagamon, Nelliyampathy, Thattekad Bird Sanctuary, Valparai (just across the Tamil Nadu border), and the northern reaches of Kasaragod. Our drivers know these lesser-known routes, which often have the best scenery and the fewest crowds.

Multilingual Drivers Who Double as Local Guides

Our drivers speak Malayalam and English, and several are comfortable in Hindi and Tamil as well. More importantly, they know the destinations — not from a script, but from years of driving tourists through them. They can tell you which side of the boat to sit on for better views at Periyar Lake, which Kochi restaurant serves the best fish curry, and why that particular waterfall is worth a twenty-minute detour.

They are not certified tour guides, and they will not pretend to be. But they offer practical, first-hand knowledge that a guidebook simply cannot match.

Tourism Seasons in Kerala

Kerala is a year-round destination, but the experience changes significantly with the seasons.

Peak Season: October to March

Dry weather, comfortable temperatures, and the best conditions for backwater cruises and beach visits. This is when Kerala sees the highest tourist volume. Book vehicles early — especially for December-January travel.

Monsoon Season: June to August

Kerala during monsoon is a different world. Waterfalls are thundering, the landscape is impossibly green, and Ayurvedic treatments are considered most effective during this period. Tourist crowds drop sharply, prices are lower, and the rain — while heavy — usually comes in afternoon bursts rather than all-day downpours. Driving requires more caution, but our drivers are well-versed in monsoon conditions.

Shoulder Season: April to May, September

Hot in the lowlands, pleasant in the hills. This is a good time for Munnar, Wayanad, and other elevated destinations. Fewer crowds than peak season, and better availability of vehicles and hotels.

Vehicle Options for Tourist Travel

We maintain a fleet that covers every group size and comfort level.

• Sedans (Dzire, Etios): Solo travellers and couples on budget
• Premium sedans (Honda City): Couples wanting extra comfort
• MUVs (Ertiga): Small families, 4-5 passengers
