I just wanted to say thank you for making our hike a magical experience. Our guide Vipin was fantastic. So helpful, knowledgeable and friendly, happy to do anything to enhance our experience. He deserves a gold medal for his efforts. Glen Smith 2015-08-20
"We were very happy with our trip. We found the Kalypso Team to be very professional, careful and friendly. The accomodations and meals were good. We would recommend our Kalypso support team - a big thanks to Raja, Santosh and Rahul for supporting us in our trekking holiday. They were very professional, kept our safety in mind and friendly. We had a good time together and we were happy with our trip"Christian Foret 2024-02-14
I simply loved Kerala. It was amazing to be hiking in a country of 3.2 billion people and to have the open spaces and forests to ourselves. To see elephants in the wild was an absolute highlight, but it was much more than that. The people, their culture and their history was facinating. Satheesh and Georgie were fabulous. They saw to our every need and were happy to answer all our questions. It was refreshing to see 2 people loving what they do, it showed in so many ways. They are both passionate about what they do and we felt very safe and well cared for.Brenda Petersen 2024-02-13
