Sultry Kerala is the antithesis to the chaotic and crazy north and home to many of the country’s most iconic experiences. This tranquil trip will show you the best of the province before you jet off to the Maldives to wriggle your toes in the sand and soak up the sunshine.
Colourful Cochin is your starting point, and a multi-cultural walking tour will reveal beautiful Dutch mansions, the impressive Chinese fishing nets, and the bustling markets of Jew Town. Escape the city in the tea plantations of cool and contented Munnar, where breath-taking views and cream teas await, before embarking on a spot of wildlife-watching in Periyar.
Then, it’s time to discover Kerala’s iconic waterways, the Backwaters, on both an iconic houseboat and with a couple of nights at an intimate boutique hotel amid the coconut groves and jungled forests on the hazy shores.
