Summary:

Best of Kerala in the southwestern corner of India, Kerala stands as a lush and captivating jewel in the country's crown. Renowned as "God's Own Country," this coastal state is a sensory delight, offering a harmonious blend of vibrant culture, stunning landscapes, and rich traditions. In a mere 300 words, it is impossible to encapsulate all that Kerala has to offer, but a glimpse into its best features reveals an enchanting tapestry of experiences.

Kerala's backwaters, a network of serene lakes, rivers, and canals, define the state's unique charm. Houseboats gracefully glide through these waterways, providing an idyllic setting for relaxation and reflection. The verdant landscapes along the banks, dotted with coconut palms and quaint villages, create a tranquil panorama that lingers in the hearts of all who visit.

The Best of Kerala Ghats, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, cradle the eastern border of Kerala, offering a haven for nature lovers and adventure seekers. Verdant hills adorned with tea and spice plantations unfold into misty valleys, providing a mesmerizing backdrop for trekking and exploration. The hill stations of Munnar and Wayanad, with their cool climates and breathtaking vistas, showcase Kerala's diverse topography.

Kerala's cultural richness is evident in its classical dance forms, such as Kathakali and Mohiniyattam, which narrate ancient stories through intricate movements and colorful costumes. The traditional art forms, coupled with the state's religious diversity, contribute to a vibrant tapestry of festivals and celebrations, like the famous Thrissur Pooram, where elephants adorned in gold and vibrant attire take center stage in a grand spectacle.

Culinary enthusiasts find their haven in Best of Kerala, where the fragrant spices of the Malabar Coast infuse every dish with a burst of flavor. From the iconic Kerala Sadya, a sumptuous feast served on a banana leaf, to the tantalizing seafood curries, the state's cuisine is a gastronomic journey.

In essence, Best of Kerala weaves together the threads of nature, culture, and cuisine into a tapestry that captivates the soul. The lush landscapes, vibrant traditions, and warm hospitality of the people make it a destination where every moment feels like a step into paradise.

Very good experience

I'd want to express my gratitude to Global Duniya for organising such a great trip. We are so grateful to you for making our trip something we will always remember. They worked hard to win us over and see that we were content. Looking forward to working with Global Duniya to arrange our future vacation.

Fantastic journey

The setup was excellent. Without a hitch, everything went as planned, and there was just enough downtime to relax. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and comfortable.

Wonderful food and trip

A magnificent lake cruise and plenty of great, freshly cooked food are supplied for lunch on this fantastic day trip. You won't need the option of stopping at a very high additional expense to "choose your fish." Otherwise, it is strongly advised.

Great trip

This tour was excellent. There went on even though it was only supposed to be me there. On this adventure, you have the chance to explore farther than you could have done through independent exploration. The guide also contained extensive historical information on the region. It's best to find it the day before.

Outsanding

I was delighted because we had never travelled with Global Duniya before. The entire trip was organised, managed, and set up with skill. No time is wasted while travelling or working exercise. a lot of time for photo editing and shopping. Our tour guide is a very friendly, knowledgeable, considerate, and responsible man. He can relate to a wider range of people since he is more adaptable. He gave specifics about the geography, history, and culture of Karnataka. He tried to communicate with us in as few words as he could. We owe Global Duniya a debt of gratitude for making our first trip so memorable.
