What people love about touring Kerala solo
- Rejuvenating Kerala - India By Car & Driver with Good Hotels !!
The Destinations are well chosen. Its possible to see the best Sightseeings. Munnar and the backwaters of Kerale are beautiful. Be Sure to do also an optional (Not included ) kayak Tour there. But I would also advice the read the program and details in the description very careful, since it could bei more transparent, which stops in the program are included and which not. It is written there, but you have to search the information. It also depends on the driver and how flexible he is to fulfil your wishes. Luckily I had the best one you can imagine. If you're able to catch A. Ravi, you got the Jackpot. I would thank him in the first place that I had a wonderful trip. Concerning the accomodations, don't expect the best, Focus in the Tours, they are good, but... mit included, be ahead of that. But they are Not expensive at all, don't worry. The whole price for everything won't be that much Higher in whole. :) Its a good Low Budget Tour which can be perfect with the right decisions you meet. Its up to you and the driver. ;D
