Our 12-day romantic tour through Southern India, starting from Kochi, was nothing short of magical. From the moment we were greeted at the airport, everything was thoughtfully planned and executed with care. Each destination offered something unique — from the serene backwaters of Alleppey to the lush hills of Munnar, the cultural richness of Madurai, and the tranquil beaches of Kovalam.The accommodations were charming and comfortable, often with stunning views that made every morning feel special. The itinerary balanced sightseeing with leisure time, giving us plenty of moments to relax and soak in the atmosphere together. Sunset boat rides, spice garden walks, temple visits, and delicious South Indian cuisine added romance and adventure at every turn.Our guide was knowledgeable and kind, always making sure we felt safe, informed, and cared for. The local experiences — like cooking demos, traditional dance performances, and village visits — gave us an authentic taste of the region’s rich heritage.This tour was the perfect blend of culture, nature, and intimacy. It left us with beautiful memories and a deeper appreciation for Southern India’s warmth and beauty. Highly recommended for couples looking for a romantic escape full of charm and discovery. I would suggest to all my neighbour for this tour speacially.Show more

In India we have lots of option but we booked 12 Days Romantic Southern India Tour from Kochi and it was absolutely incredible! From the moment I arrived in Kochi, I was enthralled by the beauty and culture of this captivating region. The tour started off with a visit to the Chendamangalam weaving village, where I got to learn about the traditional craft of weaving. We then visited the beautiful Munroe Island, where we took a tranquil boat ride around the lake. We also visited the gorgeous backwaters of Alleppey and Kumarakom, where we had the chance to explore the local wildlife and experience the serenity of the surrounding nature. The highlight of the tour was undoubtedly our stay in Thekkady, where we stayed in a beautiful treehouse. Here, we had the chance to explore the nearby Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary, which is home to a vast array of wildlife, from elephants and tigers to deer and monkeys. We also had the chance to visit the nearby spice plantations, which provided a fascinating insight into the local culture and cuisine. Overall, I had an amazing experience on this tour and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a romantic getaway. The tour was well-organised and the hotels we stayed in were all excellent. The tour guides were knowledgeable and friendly, and provided us with a wealth of information about the local culture and history. I definitely recommend giving this tour a try!Show more

Had an incredible time in India during this trip.Hemender Singh was very professional and attentive and he listened carefully to my requirements and crafted an itinerary that suited me. I was traveling as a solo so I wanted all the hotels in the city . He assured me and he kept his promise while reserving all the hotels. He assigned me an experienced and aged driver who also listened me carefully and always accompanied me when I had no guide.My well planned Itinerary was a perfect balance between travel and relax and I felt safe at all times. The Tour Guides were also experienced,warm and knowledgeable. Waiting next year to return to Northern India with someone.Show more
