A Family Adventure Journey to God's Own Country – Kerala

Imagine yourself amidst a vast stretch of fresh backwaters, sipping fresh coconut water which has been procured from the tree under which you stand. Everywhere you look, the vista takes your breath away. Yes, you're in Kerala – God's own country. With the Arabian Sea in the west, the Western Ghats towering 500-2700 miles in the east and networked by 44 rivers, Kerala enjoys unique geographical features that has made it one of the most sought after tourist destinations in Asia. Are you looking for an equable climate? Lush hill stations and exotic wildlife? Waterfalls? Sprawling plantations and paddy fields? Ayurvedic health holidays? You name it, Kerala has it on its list to offer.

This active family adventure trip is equally exiting for both adults and children, as it's not too physically taxing. You'd enjoy the vista – irrespective of age, and the multi-activity adventure is a great way for families to spend time together.

One of the best ways to keep the body fit is cycling, and this is something we are quite passionate about, at Worldwide Adventures. Our cycling adventures are held at roads less travelled that the country has to offer. During the session at the countryside we stop at some iconic places to offer an unbelievable experience.

Enjoy recreational cycling? We cycle on high quality bikes for between 2 to 6 hours a day. In the true spirit of adventure, the emphasis is on flexibility to enjoy the villages we stop at and also to imbibe the local culture. A support vehicle is kept handy all times so that you can opt for mechanized transport in case of rain or whenever you want a break from cycling.

Explore India's natural reserves at its best with Worldwide Adventures. Counted among the most interesting and varied wildlife destinations, the three important wildlife reserves will be our destination. Get to see the majestic Bengal tiger, Chital deer and other animals from a close range! After we rendezvous in Delhi, we will start our incursion towards the heart of India, 'Madhya Pradesh', where the dramatic Badhavgarh national forest is located. A hilly mosaic of forest and savannah hosting an abundance of Chital, India's signature deer, Bandhavgarh will get you a step closer to nature in its most basic and raw form. Understand the call of various creatures alerting when a tiger is near. A tiger is generally elusive, covering itself in the dense vegetation and appearing right at the point of strike. Relive the experiences of the famous Jungle Book by Kipling in the majestic Kanha national forest, where the interspersed rich grassy meadows are home to herds of the very local Southern Swamp Deer in addition to the Chital. We should see the impressive Gaur, the world's largest bovine, and we'll watch for Sloth Bear, Striped Hyena, Wild Boar, Sambar, Four-horned Antelope, Barking Deer, Golden Jackal, Dhole (Indian Wild Dog), Leopard, and a number of lesser mammals in both of these reserves.

Might we interest you in the one-horned Rhinoceros, an exceedingly endangered species at the brink of extinction? Come with us to Kaziranga, near the banks of mythical Brahmaputra River in India's great northeast and the home to Indian One-horned Rhinoceros and Asian Elephant. Listen to the cries of the Western Hoolock Gibbon (India's only ape) while you wait amidst the dense forest for a sighting.

It must not come as a surprise to you, if you were to count the number of bird species you'd be able to watch while you're on this tour (that could come to 200). Though you can't step out of the jeep once you're inside the reserves, you'll be able to sight different birds from inside the jeep or around your comfortable & luxurious lodges. This tour is also a wonderful opportunity to become familiar with India's fine native flora and we'll watch for anything else of interest as there will be so much. There should be fantastic photographic opportunities all around!
