Amazing value for money: six night/seven day trip, four hotels, six breakfasts and all meals on the houseboat, collected from the airport and dropped off at our yoga retreat. We were taken to four very different parts of Kerala our driver, Simon, spoke good English and nothing was too much trouble. Meal at local 'family' restaurants were tasty and ridiculously cheap. Particular highlights were the guided tour of Fort Cochin, the tea plantation and hotel in Munnar, and the grand finale on the houseboat.
Personally, I would avoid the ayurvedic massage in Munnar and the second guided tour, but neither small issue took away from the excellent overall experience of Kerala.
