“Through this journey, you will discover the west coast of South India; from Kanyakumari to Goa through the most beautiful parts of Kerala and Karnataka. The inevitable steps as the backwaters or Hampi but also authentic Wayanad region and the unusual ecotourism reserve of Rameshwaram. A complete living thought in every detail to discover South India at your own pace.” Saurabh
If you are tired of the daily grind, leave for Kochi located on the Malabar coast. Because… when you get tired, get a Malabar!
ALLEPPEY
To explore the backwaters of Kerala, there is not only houseboat . You can also embark on a canoe to explore the smaller channels and to meet the locals.
KOVALAM
Chill and palm trees; it’s time to relax !
KANYAKUMARI
Kanyakumari is the southernmost city in India. See you at the forefront of the world (at least in India) at the junction between the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal.
RAMESHWARAM
The city of Rameshwaram is at the tip of Tamil Nadu. The main reason for visiting this city is the Ramanathaswamy Hindu temple, an importante place of pilgrimage !
MADURAI
Indian anecdote: if you see an Indian fast bend his head from left to right, this does not mean ‘no’ as one might think , but rather, it is a “YES” ! Do not be surprised, it’s cultural.
MADURAI – THEKKADY
“Any European who comes in India acquires patience if not a step and loses If he has.” – Indian Proverb
THEKKADY
Hello you !
MUNNAR
Did you know that the Tata Group (better known for cars and trucks) is also the proud owner of numerous brands such as Tetley Tea for example. Part of its production comes from the tea plantations of Munnar.
MUNNAR – OOTY
No time to get bored in India, even during a long drive: take time to observe the scenery and all the daily life scenes, it’s a permanent show !
OOTY
Perched at 2 250m above sea level , Ooty is historically a resort which hosted all the Madras government to cool the summer.
WAYANAD
In Wayanad, you can hop on a famous Ambassador. Some taxis continue to use them, so they have almost disappeared in the rest of India.
MYSORE
“Namaste” does not just say “hello”. It also means “goodbye”, “see you soon” or “good luck”… You can just use all the sauces !
HAMPI
Did you that Hampi is a popular for its climbing sites by climbers from around the world?
GOA
Goa is not a city but a state and the smallest of India! From north to south the beaches and atmosphere of each city are very different there. As you make your choice!
