Journey times from Kochi. We quote your flights from your city with the trip.
Here is what to know before you plan from Kerala.
- When to go
- April to early June and September to October are the best months, with mild days for walking the old cities. July and August are very hot in Samarkand and Bukhara, while the mountains near Almaty and Lake Issyk-Kul are pleasant then. Winters are cold, with snow in the mountains.
- Visa
- The rules differ by country. Kazakhstan lets Indian passport holders visit without a visa for up to 14 days at a time. Uzbekistan has an online e-visa for Indian passport holders. For Kyrgyzstan, and for any change since, we check the current rules when you book.
- From Kerala
- There is no non-stop flight from Kerala. From Kochi you change once, usually in Delhi or the Gulf. With a good connection, Tashkent or Almaty is about 9 to 15 hours away; on some days the wait between flights makes it longer.

We recently traveled to Thailand with Ethan Holidays and had the most amazing experience! Every detail was taken care of, from airport pickups to hotel check-ins, island tours, transfers, and even local recommendations. They customized the itinerary based on our needs, and everything ran like clockwork. What really stood out was their attention to detail and how quickly they handled last-minute changes.

We booked our Vietnam trip with Ethan Holidays and it was an absolute delight! From the smooth visa process to peaceful transfers and friendly guides. Our stays were super cute, many with pools and jacuzzis. And the sweetest part? They arranged a surprise birthday celebration for my friend on the cruise!

Well arranged: flight, itinerary, package, food, vehicle. Good 24x7 support from start to end of our tour. We covered the Cordelia cruise and a Thailand trip with Ethan Holidays. We always recommend Ethan Holidays for an extraordinary travel experience.

Thanks to you and the Ethan Holiday team for organizing a fantastic Kashmir trip and making it so memorable! Our guide’s knowledge and friendliness made our experience great. The houseboat stay and the hotel in Gulmarg were both wonderful, with the food arrangements at the Gulmarg hotel being especially commendable. Everything was well coordinated, making the journey smooth. […] Thank you once again, and we look forward to more journeys with you in the future!

We made our decision on the trip very last minute. But they managed to book us a great stay in Munnar very easily and conveniently. Even when all the resorts were sold out and high priced, they booked us an amazing resort at cheaper rates than anyone else. Will surely choose them for any bookings or travel deals moving forward. Thank you guys so much for the remarkable services.

We, a group of seven members, recently had a thrilling holiday in Vietnam for 8 days. The entire itinerary, travel and accommodation arrangements were done by Team Ethan, led by Ms. Ruby. We had a memorable vacation at two destinations, Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City, and the accommodation at both was very comfortable, with tasty food. The tour itinerary was perfect, with courteous and supportive local guides and comfortable travel by vehicle, and all of us really enjoyed the trip. Kudos to Team Ethan for arranging such an exciting trip.

When I approached Ethan Holidays for my air ticket through a friend’s reference, the situation was very uncertain due to the ongoing war. However, they assured me that they would secure a good deal, and thanks to their efforts, I was able to fly on time. Their professionalism and approach gave me a great deal of confidence during a very stressful period. Thank you Ruby for your support, I truly appreciate your help.

Thanks to Ethan Holidays. Thank you Ruby for supporting and encouraging me to plan an international trip. The trip was awesome and we enjoyed it very much. It was the first international trip for my husband, mom and kid, and they really enjoyed it. Everyone helped us very much: Ruby, Pooja, Amit and all the drivers. Even though I was not very confident, you all gave me the courage to bring my family to Malaysia. We got information on time and never got stuck at any point. Really recommended!
