Philosophy of the Kerala tour:

Periyar Safari & Eravikulam National Park needs to be booked online in advance.
Kumarakom / Alleppy are the backwater place. There are no sightseeing at this place. One has to enjoy the backwaters & its scenic beauty.
Drivers of South India cannot communicate in Hindi at all. They will only co-ordinate in English but their English is not very fluent .They follow the tour itinerary & will communicate only for the schedule & sightseeing places. They will not be able to guide or give complete details about any sightseeing place. Basically they are drivers & not guides.
Most of the hotels in Munnar do not have Fan & AC facility due to hilly region. Also if the hotels have AC facility still they cannot put it on due to electricity issue.
