Discover atmospheric Kochi, follow nature trails in Periyar National Park, travel inland into the Western Ghats where historic hill stations are surrounded by rolling tea plantations and explore ‘God’s Own Country’ Kerala, where a tranquil cruise on a traditional houseboat is included. Led by a local guide you'll get a real insider's view of the places you visit with a unique glimpse into the communities that call this part of India home.
