Tips:
On arrival take a prepaid taxi from the airport to your chosen hotel.You will find you can order one in the arrival lounge.This avoids haggling and provides a measure of security.For further short distance travel use taxis or the local bus service(very cheap but buses are generally overcrowded) Hardly anyone wants to use a selfdrive hire car without experience driving on the local roads and they are difficult to come by.A few adventurous types buy a motorbike for the duration of their stay.The legendary Royal Enfield built in Madras being the favourite.Trains are convenient for longer distances and are again very cheap.No need to book seats if travelling shorter distances within Kerala but is a must when travelling further to neighbouring states.
