5 Tage Kerala Tourpaket - Private Tour mit exklusivem Hausbootaufenthalt

From the initial enquiry, Sanguine were very prompt and helpful to all emails and WhatsApp messages. Our guide was an excellent driver on some very windy and busy roads. A bit more information about the places we were passing and visiting would have been good and also some more communication regarding how long the journeys would be, where we could stop enroute for photos etc would be useful. However he was very polite with good English. The trip involved a lot of travelling but we knew that before we went. The car was comfortable and we felt like we saw a lot in 5 days.

This was an overall enjoyable trip and nice first introduction to India and the beauty of the Kerala region. We particularly enjoyed the overnight houseboat trip and stay. The boat and hut was really beautiful and while very large we had it all to ourselves. We found the scenery and nature beautiful, the Indian people very nice, and the hygiene was good everywhere. Please note that the driver was just that, a driver. He is not a guide, he actually knew nothing about the sites visited. The hotels are adequate, with clean rooms and range from basic to quite nice. The driving per day is between 2 and 4 hours, which is doable. The safari rides are well worth it with all the natural beauty. Please note most activities are not included and at additional charge to the venue, off-road safari companies etc. The local agent was responsive for queries and issues. If you want luxury though, this is not the right trip.

Hey guys, We overall recommend the tour operator and this trip but a lot about it comes down to the optional activities you will do so please spend some more time on the details of them to have a memorable stay :) Some tips from us: 1. Munnar is just amazing and spending 2 nights there is definitely the best thing you will do during the trip. We were stationed in Le mount fort hotel and we can definitely recommend it for others. It’s possible to ask them to go with you to the nearby tee plantations for free which we did and loved. As to the optional activities we did Jeep ride to nearby landmarks for 4000 rupees (have mixed feelings if it’s worth it) , Jeep ride to the elephant village for 7000 rupees ( if it’s summer and the elephants come I highly recommend it. Usually the locals will know if they do. It’s a little far but great experience overall), the tee factory visit ( we liked it ) 2. In thekkady we did the boat tour of the park and the two shows with fighters and costumes. The shows are definitely worth doing. I would rate them 4/5. As to the boat tour I would consider doing some other activities at the park. For us it seemed really short. They have an extensive list of things to do. This however would mean modifying the trip a bit and coming back from munnar earlier. 3. Allepey and the houseboat tour. A lot of the experience will come down to the boat you will be on. If you want to do it I would try to find a boat with good reviews. 4. Cochin. Besides standard things we did a massage here and neemas cooking class. Definitely check out the class if you like cooking :)
