Kerala tours are very popular with tourists from across the world. God’s own country as Kerala is known has wide variety of tourist attractions. On landing in Kerala, you would be overwhelmed by the majestic charm of the local culture, scenic locales, rubber and coffee plantations and beautiful beaches. It is the uniqueness of the Kerala that you have hills and beaches separated by so short a distance. Mostly, visitors explore the fabulous backwaters. They are labyrinthine network of canals running through Kerala. Besides backwaters, there numerous beautiful hill stations like Munnar, Alleppey, etc.  Another fascinating fact about the place is its cosmopolitanism through the centuries.  

In ancient times, Kerala was the maritime hub of spice trade. The Arabs, Greeks, Chinese, Romans, etc, used to come to Kochi for trading spices, ivories and silk.  Even Portuguese set up their base here before shifting their base to Goa. Such an admixture of different culture gave rise to an eclectic culture. Here you can see the thriving communities of Christians, Muslims, Hindus and Jews. But after 1948 the most of the Jews migrated to Israel. The diversity of culture is reflected in the local cuisines and dance forms.  For wildlife enthusiasts, there are destinations like Periyar and Kumarakom which are noted for fabulous flora and fauna.
