    Still have a question?Ask our Kerala team on WhatsApp.
    How do I book a tour package?

    Share your dates, departure city, number of travellers and budget on WhatsApp or by phone. Our team sends an itinerary and quote, and once you're happy you pay the advance by card, UPI or bank transfer. Your booking is confirmed when you receive our written confirmation.

    Can I customise a package?

    Yes. Every package can be changed to suit your days, stays, route and budget. Share what you have in mind and our team will send a revised itinerary.

    Do you arrange flights?

    Yes. Flights from any Indian city can be booked together with your trip. Package prices on our site are for the land trip and exclude flights.

    Which destinations do you cover?

    Kerala is our home, and we also plan trips across South India, North India including Kashmir, and international holidays. Pilgrim tours and group trips can be arranged on request.

    Which month is best to visit Kerala?

    September to March has the most pleasant weather. June to August is the monsoon: green, quiet and good value if you don't mind some rain.

    What payment methods do you accept?

    You can pay by card, UPI or bank transfer. The advance is paid once you're happy with the itinerary.

    Do you plan honeymoon trips?

    Yes, honeymoon packages are among our most booked trips, with private houseboats, treehouses, pool villas, a candlelight dinner and flower-bed decoration. See our honeymoon packages for routes and prices.

    What is your cancellation policy?

    Cancellation charges depend on how close to the travel date you cancel and on supplier terms. The exact terms are shared in writing at booking.

    Golden Compass Holidays: Your Travel Agency in Kochi

    What kind of travel agency is Golden Compass Holidays?

    Golden Compass Holidays is a travel agency in Kochi that plans private, customised holidays rather than fixed group tours. We work in two directions: bringing couples, families and groups from across India and abroad to Kerala, and taking Kerala travellers to the rest of India and overseas. Every trip is planned by our own team, booked directly with hotels, drivers and houseboat owners, and supported while you travel.

    Kerala holidays for visitors from other states and countries

    For guests coming to Kerala, we plan routes through the tea hills of Munnar, the spice country of Thekkady, the Alleppey and Kumarakom backwaters, and beaches such as Kovalam, Varkala and Marari. Pickup is usually at Cochin International Airport, and a private car with driver stays with you for the whole trip. Our most requested plans are Kerala honeymoon packages with a private houseboat night, and relaxed family holidays.

    Honeymoons are our speciality

    A large share of the trips we plan are honeymoons. That means we know which Munnar resorts have the best valley view rooms, which houseboats are truly private, and where a treehouse or pool villa is worth the extra cost. Couples can choose a Munnar honeymoon, an Alleppey houseboat honeymoon or a luxury Kerala honeymoon with premium stays, and we add touches like flower decoration and a candlelight dinner on request.

    Trips across India and abroad for Kerala travellers

    For families and couples living in Kerala, we plan holidays the other way: Kashmir tours from Kerala, North India and Northeast trips, South Indian pilgrim circuits, and international holidays to Dubai, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, the Maldives and more. We arrange flights from Kochi, Thiruvananthapuram or Kozhikode and help with visas where needed.

    How we plan a trip with you

    Every plan starts with a conversation on WhatsApp or a call. You share your dates, the number of travellers, the places you like and a rough budget. We send a day wise plan with named hotels and a clear price, and revise it until it fits. Once you confirm, we book everything and stay in touch with you and your driver until you are home.

    Offices in Kochi and Gujarat

    Our main office is in Kochi, the gateway to Kerala, and we have a second office in Bardoli, Gujarat, for guests from Surat, Vadodara, Ahmedabad and nearby cities. Having our own people in Kerala means quick answers when plans change on the ground, while the Gujarat office gives travellers from western India a local point of contact.

    What every package includes

    Our packages include stays in verified hotels, resorts or houseboats, a private AC vehicle with driver for road journeys, airport or railway pickup and drop, and sightseeing as per the plan. Meals depend on the plan, and houseboat stays include all meals on board. Flights, trains, entry tickets and optional activities can be added. Each package page lists its inclusions and exclusions clearly.

    Why choose a local agency over a booking site?

    Online portals sell fixed packages and pass the ground work to suppliers you never meet. With an agency based in Kerala, the people who plan your trip are the people who answer your call during it. We can change a hotel, move a day around a rain warning or sort out a problem with a driver within hours, which a booking website cannot do.

    Honest pricing and clear terms

    Prices on our site are per couple and exclude flights unless stated. Peak dates such as Christmas, New Year and long weekends cost more, and we tell you upfront about any compulsory gala dinners or seasonal supplements. Our cancellation and refund policy is published openly, and the quote is free, with nothing to pay until you confirm.

    Browse all tour packages, or send us your dates and ideas on WhatsApp. Whether it is a first trip to Kerala, a honeymoon in the hills, a Kashmir winter or a family holiday abroad, our team will put together a plan that fits your time and budget.
