Tour to Kerala : Munnar | Thekkady | Alleppey | Kumarakom
An equable climate matched with the luscious greenery, the long shoreline and the tranquil emerald stretch of the Kerala backwaters coupled with the exotic wildlife, makes the sprawling cities of Kerala a prime tourist destination.
Munnar, nestled in the billowing mountainous range of the South Western Ghats is a breathtaking beauty that is known as a haven of tranquility and peace. Situated at the conflux of the Kundala, Mudrapuzha and the Nallathani, Munnar is a habitat of natural flora and fauna, which makes it the unrivalled winner amongst tourist destinations.
Home to the Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary, Thekkady is one of the world’s most fascinating wildlife reserves, therefore, the best destination for wildlife lovers. Whether you choose to boat through the placid river, long for trekking or ride the elephant in Thekkady, the high ranges of the Western Ghats clothed with moist deciduous, dense evergreen forests and savannah grass lands would delight all your senses.
Alleppey, known as the Venice of the East, is a welcoming salutation from Kerala to all its visitors. The quaint streets, unique Kerala style architecture, bustling shoreline and palm fringed canals coupled with the large markets selling green coconuts, rice, jack fruit and red chilies make Alleppey a favorite tourist destination.
The lush green coconut palm trees that compliment the salubrious climate add to the mesmerizing beauty of the cluster of islands called Kumarakom. Located on the Vembanad backwaters, Kumarakom is home to various marine life that include the the 'Chemeen' (Prawns), the 'Konju' (Tiger Prawns) and the 'Karimeen' (Pearl Spotted Fish). The Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary is a sheer delight for tourists and bird watchers alike.
