A world apart Some of our daysArrival dayTransfer from Cochin airport to our first hotel in The Backwaters region. The BackwatersA four-night stay with three days spent capturing the varied and colourful waterside locations. Periyar Tiger ReserveA four-night stay with one day recording the local town, and another, life along the river. A free day is included with one option being a trek in the Tiger Reserve.
The Western GhatsA three-night stay in the hill-station of Munnar. At 1,500 metres, this vibrant small town is set amidst the lush, green tea gardens that contour the landscape. Fort CochinA two-night stay on the ancient headland that separates The Backwaters from the Indian Ocean. This old Europeans ettlement with its many wonderful old buildings reminds us of its colonial past. A wonderful old synagogue, spectacular Chinese fishing nets and the burial place of Vasco de Gama are a few of the fascinating features. Good shopping.
