The visit works best when timed around monument and synagogue opening rules, because closure days and prayer/security rules can shape the route. Listings should be exact: a shop, cafe or homestay in Fort Kochi is not automatically in Jew Town.
Road km to Ernakulam; ghat roads and traffic vary — allow extra.
November to February is easiest for walking. Avoid building a tight plan on monument closure days or major holidays.
