It’s said that being able to travel, to see the world and all the wonders it holds, is a gift of good health. But often times, travel itself could be undertaken for good health. Which is certainly the case when it comes to ayurveda. For holistic wellness of the mind and body, not to mention cures for particular ailments, ayurveda offers treatment methodologies and natural remedies that have a heritage going back by millennia. The good news is this heritage has been preserved largely unbroken, so you could benefit from it in the twenty first century. And there are no better places for that than our partner ayurveda-centric resorts in Kerala.
As purveyors of tours that are driven towards ‘authentic experiences’ we support resorts and hotels that blend well with their natural settings. Rather than disrupting the surrounding nature, these welcoming abodes for travelers complement it. They are spaces where you could unwind even as you enjoy the pristine beauty of Kerala’s incredible landscape- be it in a hill station, a jungle, by the ocean or in a pocket of green in a bustling city.
Who doesn’t like to make a getaway to mist-clad verdant hills where the rhythm of life is still tranquil, sans the frenzied pace of the city? Kerala has its fair share of hill stations- ones that are laid with tea plantations and other farming areas, as well as the ones which remain beautiful in its pristine form- with majestic tropical flora filling the earth and exotic birds populating the skyline. Among our partner resorts are the ones which are located in these hill stations, where time becomes as if suspended, and beauty marks the passage of every moment.
The backwaters of Kerala are some of the most charmingly folkloric waterways one could traverse in. Folkloric not only because of the otherworldly aura that permeates these waters that are dotted by coconut palms on the shore, evoking some old forgotten tale of adventure you may have read as a child, but also because of the many tales of folklore which have come to dominate the cultural landscape of the villages through which these waters flow. What better way to explore these channels, the legends they gave birth to and the people who are the living, breathing emissaries of that culture than by staying in resorts perched close to some of the best backwaters in Kerala?
With an unbroken coastal line running from one end to the other, Kerala boasts many beautiful beaches. From white sandy beaches to brown-hued beauties, from ones bordered by tall pine trees swaying majestically in the ocean breeze to ones which are sprinkled with natural rocks near to the shore, these beaches are as varied as they are many. Also, the different beaches give a glimpse of a different view of culture in a sea side town, depending on where it is located. Many of our partner beach resorts come with private beaches and services that ensure your stay is as comfortable as it is memorable. But we have a feeling it’s the exploration of the surrounding beaches and towns that would be truly eye-opening for you.
The majestic western ghats lend Kerala the beauty and wild charm of some of the most lush tropical forests that can be found this side of the Arabian ocean. Aside from the mighty elephants- the veritable symbol of the state- a plethora of other animals and birds make their home in these jungles. Wildlife enthusiasts and nature lovers would have a literal field day by visiting the many natural reserves spread across the state. However, if you wish to soak in the almost sensual beauty of these forests, the best way to do so would be to check in to the eco-conscious resorts that complement rather than disrupt their surrounding nature. The sight of elephants bathing on a distant shore, the sound of bird cries filling the air, the wind rustling the thick canopy spread over your hut, creating a melody all its own..it’s a unique slice of magic you shouldn’t miss. And we have partnered with some of the most enchanting forest resorts you could stay in.
