Southern India (Kerala & Tamil Nadu)

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Southern India's Kerala and Tamil Nadu states offer one of the subcontinent's most diverse and rewarding travel experiences. Kerala is famed for its tranquil backwaters, spice plantations, lush hill stations like Munnar, and Ayurvedic wellness traditions, while its coastline draws travellers to beaches at Varkala and Kovalam. Tamil Nadu is the heartland of Dravidian culture, home to spectacular ancient temple complexes at Madurai, Thanjavur, and Mahabalipuram, as well as the bustling metropolis of Chennai. Together, the two states attract independent and group travellers seeking a rich mix of spirituality, wildlife, cuisine, and heritage.

Self-Launched Romantic Southern India: Kochi to Chennai

A DIY version of Agra Travels' 12-day private, fully guided Kochi-to-Chennai tour — same route through Kerala's backwaters and tea country plus Tamil Nadu's temple towns and French-colonial coast, but using trains, local buses and shared boats instead of a private car and driver. Expect homestays, guesthouses and budget hotels, self-booked entry tickets and local guides on arrival, with plenty of freedom to slow down in the places you love. Costs are approximate backpacker/budget rates in GBP and assume per-person sharing.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Southern India (Kerala & Tamil Nadu) yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Eat the strangest thing on the menu every single day for a week and document the regret."
