Luxury Kerala Tours

One of the primary tourist activities in Kerala is to waltz your way through the stunningly beautiful backwaters of Alleppey and Kumarakom aboard a luxury houseboat that is equipped with top-notch modern amenities.

OUR PRIVATE HOUSEBOAT has a chef on board who serves you delicious locally-sourced organic meals. Waking up to a sunrise and spending a night stargazing in the backwaters are must-do Keralan things.

Derived from the words “Katha” (story), and Kala (“performance”, Kathakali is an important classical Indian “story play” genre of performance art that originated in Kerala.

Combining elements of storytelling, music, drama, poetry and ritual the Kathakali typically enacts stories from ancient Hindu epics.

Watching a Kathakali performance is the quintessential cultural attraction in Kerala.

The ancient Indian AYURVEDA tradition that goes back 5,000 years finds its capital in Kerala.

Using plant-based dietary interventions, yoga, massage, acupuncture and herbal medicine, Ayurveda aims at a holistic healing process of the body and the soul.

There is nothing quite like beating stress and negativity in life with a rejuvenating Ayurvedic reset. A spa retreat in Kerala is the perfect gift you can give yourself. 

Snuggled at a height of 5,200 feet in the Western Ghats Mountain Range, the lovely little hill station of MUNNAR is often referred to as the “Kashmir of South India.” 

Lush green virgin vales, cascading tea gardens, pristine rivers and verdant forests make Munnar the premier honeymoon destination and summer retreat in the Indian South.

A stay at a luxury tea plantation retreat in Munnar is an enchanting experience that you cannot miss out on.

Known for its serene Periyar Lake, spice plantations, tribal villages and nature walks, the THEKADDY REGION is also home to lush green verdant forests which are famous for their tree houses.

Staying at a luxury tree house in Thekkady smack in the middle of a forest is one experience you ought not to miss out on.

The alluring beaches of Marari, Varkala and Kovalam offer a more off-beat alternative to the urban crowded beaches of Goa.

Booking yourself into a luxurious beachfront resort or villa in these tranquil tropical paradises with your little slice of private beach is the dream beach holiday.

Home to an Elephant and a Tiger Reserve, the 357 sq. m. Periyar National Park in the Idukki region is famous for its tropical evergreen deciduous forests and montane grasslands.

It is also the abode of a wide range of wildlife like 35 species of mammals (including the Asian elephants, white tigers, Dhole/Wild Indian Dogs, Sambhar deer, sloth bears and Indian Gaur Bisons),  266 species of birds, 45 species of reptiles and 40 species of fish.

A wildlife encounter at the Periyar is an absolute must on a Kerala tour.

Also known as Cochin, the historical Malabar coastal city of KOCHI is famous for its beautiful backwaters, the old city, Kochi Port, the spice & coffee trade, Kochi Fort, the Marine Drive promenade and sumptuous cuisine.

Kochi is also famous for its Chinese Fishing Nets which feature large nets suspended from bamboo and teak poles along its shorelines. When the fishermen operate them at sunset, the entertaining process draws a lot of tourists.

Kochi is also home to the famous Jew Town, the roots of which go back to 1568 AD when Jews from the Middle East arrived here and established a prosperous and bustling community. Various monuments from that era like the iconic Paradesi synagogue, Jewish cemetery and old mansions still dot the landscape.

Discover all of these places in our PRIVATE GUIDED TOUR of Kochi.

Kerala is a culinary delight with its nerve-ending array of delicious delicacies.

When you are in town, do not miss on the Malabar Biryani, Puttu & Kadala curry (steamed rice cake made with rice and coconut), Appam with Stew (rice pancakes served with saucy stew), Meen (fish) curry and Karmeen Pollichathu (pearl spot fish).

A houseboat is not the only way to enjoy the Keralan backwater experience. Another exciting way to navigate the backwaters is through a canoe or a bamboo raft which gives you proximity to the scenery of the beautiful landscape.

The blissful village of Kumily in the Idukki region ensconced in lush green spice plantations near Thekkady is an important hub of the spice trade in Kerala.

A trip to KUMILY to see how cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, pepper, cardamom and other spices are grown is a fun learning experience.

Placed on the “tentative list” of UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the  Mattancherry Palace built in 1545 AD by the Portuguese as a gift to the king of Cochin Beera Kerala Varma is an important Keralan heritage site.

Renovated by the Dutch in the 17th century, this palace which is an amalgam of Portuguese, Dutch and Keralan architecture served as the residence of the royal family.
