Hi,

I'm planning on going from Cochin airport> Munnar> Allepey or Kumarakom to Kovalam in a week. Are there trains to connect me between these desinations? If not, I would like to take buses or private vans - how would i go about booking bus tickets?

thanks for your help.

from cochin to munnar there is railway line.. so u have to travel by road from cochin to munnar and from there to allepy..
from alllepy you can travel to thiruvananthapuram by train from there another half an hour by road to kovalam

Bus tickets you can book by going to travels outlets. i guess many will be waiting for tourist in the airport itself!!

Allepey to Thiruvananthapuram are only few hours,you go directly to bustand buy tickets.Buses regularly ply between them.No need to book anything.The agents gonna rip you off.
