Kerala, Alleppey, backwaters
India - Kerala

The distinctive features of a Kerala visit are its mysterious backwaters, magnificent beaches, the healing touch of its ancient science of Ayurveda and the short distances between them all.

What is truly magical about a traditional kettuvellam cruise on the backwaters is the rare opportunity that it provides for an up-close and personal view of a unique lifestyle that is still untouched and far removed from the stressed and hurried lifestyle of modern civilization.

Kerala Backwaters
A World of Timeless Serenity

The heart and soul of Kerala is it’s ‘poorams’ or the lively and colourful seasonal, temple festivals. Entire communities come to life as the streets are decked up to celebrate these events.

Processions of richly-caparisoned elephants splash the streets with colour to the thunderous roars of applause from enthusiastic crowds of devotees.

The atmosphere is that of a carnival, as local folk artists put on spontaneous performances at every street corner near the temples.
