Sandwiched between the Arabian Sea and the lush Western Ghats, our itinerary treats you to scenes of un-touched Southern India. We've avoided the touristy far south, and taken you instead on a connoisseur's walking tour, to discover some lesser known jewels. Our explorations take us to palm-fringed white sand beaches, wildlife havens and cities like Mysore with their wealth of culture and history. Our programme is perfect for total immersion in the rich culture of Kerala.

• Discover lush green mountains and spice-scented cardamom hills
• Enchantingly rich culture at historic Mysore and colonial Kochi
• Enjoy an evening afloat on our luxury houseboat in a labyrinth of lakes and lagoons
