Cruising
the Backwaters of Kerala
The Spice Coast * Kerala Backwaters * Beaches

The
Southern state packs a variety of experiences for the visitor. Some of the
finest beaches any where in the world, many being off the beaten tourist
track, idyllic backwaters allow for laidback cruises through palm tree and
rice paddy country. Some of the best ethnic style hotels in India and
quality houseboat accommodation, coupled with the opportunity to explore the
diverse cultures, provide for a memorable holiday.
Cochin
Enjoys a 2000 year old tradition of maritime interaction with the rest of
the world. Christianity took roots here before its introduction in Europe,
and the Jewish settlement here, traces its ancestry to the times of Jesus in
Palestine. Since exposed to the Arabs and Chinese before major European
expeditions the city is a mix of all these influences, examples being the
Dutch Palace at Mattanchery and
Chinese fishing nets, one of the
earliest success stories in automation. The metropolis embraces Ernakulam on
the mainland along with Willington Island and the Fort Cochin Peninsula.
Thiruvananthapuram
( Trivandrum )
The capital of Kerala and close to Kovalam ( Beach ) - it is also a centre
for various Gurukulas of Kallarippayattu (Schools of ancient martial arts
and systems of mental discipline) and Ayurveda (ancient herbal based systems
of medicine and healing). Ayurvedic Massages are a speciality, but require
careful selection. Genuine Ayurvedic Treatment Programs customised to
Individual profiles are available in select health resorts.
