About Traveling to Kerala
Kerala is defined by soothing greenery, tranquil backwater channels, and cool mist-shrouded Western Ghat peaks. It is widely considered India's most restorative travel destination.
A classic journey takes you from the colonial streets of Fort Kochi up into Munnar's rolling tea estates at 1,600 meters, through Thekkady's cardamom hills, and down to Alleppey, where traditional wooden kettuvallam houseboats glide along palm-shaded canals.
Trevora Holidays ensures every Kerala houseboat is private, air-conditioned, and staffed by a dedicated crew serving freshly prepared authentic Kerala delicacies.
