Kerala Tours A Journey to the Back of Beyond

Travel to the south of India and you will find a narrow, long state that looks rather unassuming. It, however, houses explosive experiences that charge, fulfill and invigorate you. Kerala is a state which needs no intervention, no augmentation and no help to help enhance its appeal. It is a picture of perfection in itself. Kerala Tours have so many sights and experiences in its natural, ordinary way of life that it is hard to find another tour that can match or better it.

The most prominent feature of all Kerala Tours continues to remain the thrill of the backwaters. Unending stretches of beautiful waters that gently stroke the shores of several small towns make the perfect holiday to solitude. Moving motionlessly through the waters in an unhurried pace, this is a wonderful opportunity to experience some of the most inspiring sights of Kerala. Humble abodes that line the coasts are inviting, while the churches that can be seen through the parting of wavering palms beckon you. The sounds of waves undulating under you and the birds making their way through the winds sends shivers of pleasure.

A similar experience of water and pleasure awaits you in the exotic beaches of Kerala. Several of them lay waiting along the coast of the state, some of which enjoy more popularity. The beaches are picturesque – almost too good to be true. The blue blanket of sky that meets the sea flawlessly, shades of blues, greens and grey of the sea that changes with the moods of the heavens above, and whites, yellows and ochre of the sands that sift through your feet and tempt you with their welcoming warmth. This is just the beginning of the most sublime experience. Cherish it under your beach umbrella, soak in the sun, or just sit aimlessly and sip the nectarine freshness of coconut water. The sunset in Kerala is a must for everyone here, and along the beach the magic is augmented manifold. Watch the sun rush through the sky and disappear quickly to plunge the waters, skies and earth in darkness, and feel the cold of the night dawn on you.

A walk through the fishing village is a unique experience which stimulates vision, smell and feel. Rows of catch take their chance to find their way to the frying pan. The prize of the day assumes its regal position as enthused men chant in authority to obtain the highest price from obliging bidders. Along the waters, age old Chinese fishing nets are raised and lowered periodically to unearth an abundant variety of sea life.

Kerala has been endowed rather generously with varieties of plants and trees. Anything that is planted is nurtured. Palm trees are found effortlessly as they grow in large numbers, as do the coconuts. In almost fair share you will find jackfruit trees which are present in most homes and also along the roadsides. Jackfruit and coconuts are among the most common features of cuisine in Kerala. Kerala tours are incomplete if you have not tasted these foods in various forms.

The state of Kerala reminds you that you do not need a wonder of the world, or the most extravagant luxuries to have a good time. The great things in life are sometimes best kept simple.
