Do you want to get a real feeling for the beauty, diversity and culture of South India? Yes, you will see the 'must-see' sights of Cochin, enjoy a backwaters boat trip and a spice tour, but you will also meet local craftsmen, folk artists and musician, and stay in some very special heritage properties. This is a really lovely, varied adventure.
Travellers wanting an adventure holiday in India often end up seeing the more 'usual' sides of Kerala. This holiday is different. It takes you on an adventure which is much less ordinary, far more interesting, and which is utterly immersed in the culture of the area.
This is an Indian holiday which gives you a varied and fascinating look at the state of Kerala, including Cochin, the backwaters, the beaches of Kannur and the wildlife and spice gardens of Wayanad. But it also includes privileged insights into the culture and traditions of the local people - artists, musicians, dancers, and other craftsmen.
This is an excellently-priced holiday, especially when you consider the places you'll be staying, including eco-friendly cottages on a backwater island and in Wayanad, 4 nights homestay in heritage houses, and lovely beach cottages.
There are also some fascinating excursions and activities included which help bring the culture of the area alive for you, and give you your chance to really meet the local people.
This is one of Tribes' Down to Earth holidays. This is a great range of more affordable, set itinerary holidays, as opposed to our tailor made trips.
The Down to Earth holidays also have their own website where you will find lots more details about each trip.
