India: Kerala & Backwaters

Over 9 days, discover a side of India where tea-covered hills, spice plantations, clifftops overlooking beaches and palm-lined backwaters take centre stage. Explore the historic streets of Kochi, trek through the rolling landscapes of Munnar and unwind in laid-back Varkala. Along the way, you'll cook with a local family, taste tea and spices at their source, cruise through Periyar National Park and spend a night aboard a traditional houseboat in Alleppey's backwaters.
