Often referred to as “God’s own country”, Kerala is known for its many vibrant festivals, both religious and cultural.

Almost every month of the year, Kerala has a festival for travelers to experience. Onam, Thrissur Pooram, and Vishu are just a few of the festivals that showcase the region's diverse traditions, from colorful celebrations honoring King Mahabali to intricate ritualistic dances depicting divine characters.

We entrusted the organization of our trip in Tamil Nadu and Kerala to the agency of Travel XS. They perfectly respected our wishes, the rhythm, the hotels we wanted. In addition, the choice of our driver, who assisted us from the first to the last day was perfect. Very good driver, because the traffic is very particular and intense, very nice, very helpful. Two very different regions, Tamil Nadu more focused on temples, Hinduism and its history, a very smiling, welcoming, and very spontaneous population. Kerala is very green, with its various crops of rice, pineapple, rubber... Catholic fervour, its backwaters, its beaches, but a more restrained population accustomed to tourists. A magnificent trip, and beautiful encounters.
