Kerala: Hills to the Ocean Cliff
From the tea gardens of Munnar and backwaters of Alleppey to the red cliffs of Varkala
About the Trip
A raw, uncrowded 5N/6D circuit through the heart of Kerala—from mist-covered tea trails and secluded island backwaters to golden ocean cliffs. We travel at an authentic, unhurried pace: scaling the world’s highest tea estate before dawn in a 4x4 jeep, staying at a quiet backwater retreat reached only by boat, paddling through tranquil coastal mangroves at sunset, and spending relaxed evenings on the lively cliffs of Varkala. Capped strictly at a small group of 12 travelers and anchored personally by a BeLive Community Lead.
