We had a 6D5N tour to Kerala. When we landed at Cochin Airport, our driver, Eltinis, welcomed us. We checked into the first hotel, Hotel Presidency Cochin, which was conveniently close to the airport, making it easy to reach after our 4-hour-plus flight. The room was comfortable but did not quite meet the standards of a 4-star hotel. The breakfast could be improved with more variety, so we would rate it 7/10. Our day began with a visit to Athirapally Waterfall, which is not recommended for elderly people. The waterfall view was beautiful. We then checked into The Leaf Munnar for a 2-day stay. This was one of the best resorts we experienced during our 6-day tour. The staffs were very friendly and welcomed us in traditional ways. The resort offered a variety of evening activities, including complimentary tea and coffee. We celebrated our son's birthday at the resort restaurant, where the food, especially the chili fish, was delicious. The breakfast spread was diverse. The next day, we enjoyed a jeep safari and had the opportunity to participate in Sivarathiri prayers at Mahadeva Temple, as it coincided with the festival. We also visited Ripple Munnar, Ripper Waterfall, Ponmudi Dam, Echo Point Munnar, Ponmudi Viewpoint, and Hanging Bridge Ponmudi. We then visited the Museum & Plantation (Kannan Devan Hills Plantations) and had a refreshing drink of Nonggu on the way to our next stop. We also experienced Kathakali & Kalaripayattu martial arts, which was amazing. Our last stop of the day was Prakrithi Multi-Cuisine Restaurant, where we received excellent service and enjoyed delicious food. The restaurant caters to a variety of tastes, and the staffs were attentive and provided excellent service. On the next day when check-our from the resort the staff even took a picture of us in front of the hotel, printed it on a hotel's paper photo frame card for us to keep as a memory. We highly recommend this resort. Next, we travelled to Thekkady, where we started our tour with a hot air balloon ride in Munnar. It was a nice experience, although we felt that the 600 INR paid for 20 soft copy photos was not worth it, as only 4 out of 10 pictures were good. On our way to Periyar Spices & Ayurvedic Garden, we saw Vandanmedu Ganapathi. We had a good lunch at a restaurant, although we unfortunately did not remember its name. We then proceeded with an elephant safari, which was worth the price. It was a sweet memory when the elephant blessed us. We checked into Wild Avenue Resort & Spa, which we do not recommend. The lift did not function properly, there were network and Wi-Fi issues due to poor room range, and the electricity tripped three times. After 7 pm, we couldn't even go outside near the swimming pool due to a lot of mosquitoes. Our journey continued to the Boathouse in Alleppey, where we had another delightful stay. The owner and chef were polite, the food was delicious, and the luxury houseboat made our vacation very comfortable. We plan to return here soon. On the last day, we checked out and visited Chottanikkara Bhagavathi Amman Temple, followed by lunch at Dhe Puttu Cochin, which offered a great variety of food, excellent hospitality, value for money, and a great ambiance. It is a must-try restaurant in Kochi. We then went shopping at Seematti Kochi, which provided a great shopping experience. Our driver, Eltin's brother, was also superb and never seemed tired of taking us wherever we wanted to go. His friendly and approachable demeanour made our tour enjoyable. Thank you for a memorable experience, brother. It was a fantastic tour with a comfortable Tempo. To the tour agent, thank you very much, Saba Fathima, for arranging a wonderful vacation to Kerala and providing us with unforgettable memories. We were very satisfied with all the arrangements. It was an awesome trip! Thank you for the excellent service and immediate responses to all our inquiries. You arranged everything according to our preferences, and we would highly recommend AIP to our friends and relatives who plan to travel to India in the future. Great job, and keep it up!

I went with my friends for our class reunion booked through All India Packages. It was a 7 night tour and the itinerary was planned for multiple cities in Kerela. The AIP tour organizers and the guide did an excellent job in making it all possible and an enjoyable and memorable experience for us. They paid attention to details and took care of everything we needed. The group was extremely happy with the trip. I will gladly recommend AIP to anyone. Happy travelling 😀
