A few days spent in “God’s own land,” can only leave you wanting more.
Munnar’s vast estates of tea, coffee, pepper and cardamom are intent on refreshing your senses, while mouth-tingling delicacies made from fresh, locally grown produce give that wholesome touch to your holiday. A soothing boat ride on the backwaters of Kerala is just what the doctor ordered, and an overnight stay on a boathouse is the perfect way to end it.

Once your soul and heart have been satisfied by Nature in her element, there is always the hustle and bustle of the city to excite the urbanite in you. Souvenirs and various artifacts are a pleasure to bargain for at the several shops along the promenade near the Kochi jetty.  Walk and explore the colourful spice bazaars, enjoy the lovely old architecture, then stop by the beach and watch the fishermen with their Chinese fishing nets, preparing for the next day’s catch.

An exhilarating time spent taking in the various sights and sounds of Kerala is never complete until you have experienced the thrill of a Kathakali performance. That done, all that remains is to enjoy the goodness of an ancient, traditional Ayurvedic massage.

• Buy souvenirs and gifts from the many shops that dot the promenade near the Kochi jetty.
• Wake up, refreshed, in the hills of Munnar amidst tea, coffee, pepper and cardamom estates.
• Indulge in a traditional Ayurvedic massage.
• Go on a boat trip on the backwaters and stay overnight on a traditional  houseboat.
• Relish mouth-watering, backwater delicacies made from fresh ingredients using time-tested recipes.
• Experience the thrill of a Kathakali dance performance.
• Walk through the quaint, cobbled streets of Fort Kochi  and breathe in the aromas of the  spice bazaars whilst admiring the architecture of old mansions and the charming Chinese fishing nets.
