Kerala Travel

Is it possible that I can bargain for best offers for hotels, houseboats or packages?

It is always good to pay a deposit for your bookings.

It is good to reserve a good homestay with a reliable travel agent than to walk into any cheap and less expensive home stays and fall into trap or trouble.

 

Many issues and police cases happen these days for those who stay at less expensive or cheap home stays - from robbery to manhandling. Specially in Fort Cochin.

 

Travelling all the way from your home country, why invite trouble.

 

So e mail us or any good travel agent and choose a decent good home stay.

Usally tips are 10%. And for drivers Rs.300 - 400 per day. But this vary as per the quality of service they provide and how you like it.

I think I am beating around the bush.

For tourist season bookings (October - March),it is suggested to book atleast 5 months prior to get good accommodations. For off seasons. April - September, even one month prior will do. But better be early before good ones get sold out.

The Houseboat cruise commences with a traditional Kerala lunch. The guests can begin their lunch by sampling tapioca and fish curry – a local favourite. The tapioca is usually boiled and cooked in spices and served alongside spicy red fish curry. This is followed by an elaborate meal of rice and curry. A slice of fried Pearl Spot, Kerala Chicken curry and vegetable dishes are normally served. The lunch is served buffet style and consists only of authentic Kerala dishes. Tea and typical Kerala snacks like Banana roast will be provided in the evening.
