I would like to know if my friend who is from Kerala can join this trip on the 2nd day when we go to Munnar? He is from Kochi, and for that reason, he wants to join the tour on the 2nd day.

I would like to make this tour in a group up to 10 people. Since I was in Kerala in 2019, I know the country a little. I hope the driver and the tour is also safe for solo travelers.

I’ve traveled a lot in India, but this was my first time in the south. This tour was well-designed and covered a great experiences. The drive through the Western Ghats was scenic, and Munnar was absolutely beautiful. In Madurai, the culture felt so alive. The hotel near Periyar was surrounded by greenery, which added to the peaceful vibe. Our driver was polite, spoke good English, and was always on time. This was a lovely, no-stress trip with lots to see and do.Show more

Amazing culture, nature, this tour has it all. I was blown away by the Meenakshi Temple in Madurai such vibrant energy and rich history. The boat ride through Alleppey backwaters was the most peaceful part of the tour. I also liked the spice plantation tour in Thekkady. Every hotel we stayed at was clean and the staff was kind. Special mention to our driver, who was always ready with a smile and very patient.Show more
