Our 2 week extension after the group’s departure was lovely. You were right about the car which gave us so much more flexibility than battling with local buses and trains and Kannan in particular was really good. The accommodation was great and the last few days at Turtle Beach, very relaxing. All in all, everything was taken care of by your excellent team, so that we could just relax and enjoy ourselves. Special thanks in this respect to Vishal for all his emails, phone calls and planning'. Thank you again and please pass on thanks and say hi to the rest of the team. 

We have arrived home from our trip to Kerala very recently and we had a fantastic 12 day cycling trip with Francis! He did an amazing job introducing us to India. We learned so much from him about Kerala and we could tell he really wanted us to have an amazing trip with Kalypso. 

'We are just back from one of the best holidays of lives. Fantastic India and wonderful Kerala - all brought together in an amazing package tailored for just the two of us by Kalypso Adventures. Nirmala organised and anchored the whole expedition exuding a true sense of skill, knowledge and capacity. We knew before we left home that this was going to be special. Peter was our driver and guide - and much, much more. Thank you Peter for taking us for the best biryani we have ever had (or ever will have) and for showing us both the wildlife and the way of life of India. We really appreciated that, as you got to know us and our interests, you were always quietly working away fine tuning our trip. We had a magnificent time with a wonderful range of accommodation, safaris and visits.' 

 Kalypso was FANTASTIC! From my first correspondence with Nirmala and 57 subsequent emails later, we couldn't have asked for a better organised trip -especially since we were traveling on very short notice.
Jeffin Antony was our guide and you couldn't ask for a more knowledgeable person. He knew every trail, bird, flora and fauna, he worked a mean machete when necessary.
Das, the driver was another reason our Kalypso tour went so well. He drove expertly up and down some windy roads which could have made me really ill.
The camping, which we called "glamping" was how I like to camp. The food was delicious and plenty of it.
The highlight of the week, aside from the trekking, was the Christmas dinner complete with Christmas cake and a bottle of wine.
Thanks again for a fantastic trip.

4 of us, all of a certain age, spent ten days touring the Kerala region with our Kalypso guide, Brijesh. It was our first experience of India and we had put our faith in Kalypso to arrange everything. We were delighted by the detailed and considerate arrangements that Kalypso had made for us, both for the travel and for the homestay experiences. Brijesh was first class and his knowledge of the region and its culture was detailed and interesting in every aspect. Whether we were visiting a temple or a fish market or simply wanting to visit some ordinary shopping streets and enjoy the atmosphere, he was always accommodating and attentive to our needs and indeed to our safety - the traffic can be a bit hairy when you want to get across a busy road. He looked after us extremely well, nothing was too much trouble. He had a great sense of humour too. Kerala is a beautiful part of the world and Brijesh did a great deal to help us to fully appreciate what we were seeing and doing in the time that we had. We will look back on this visit with very fond memories. If you are thinking of visiting Kerala we would strongly recommend that you do it with Kalypso - a professional and high quality company with fantastic guides and drivers. A five-star operation - in fact we would give it six out of five if we could!  

We want to let you know that we had a wonderful time on our South India Eco & Culture tour. The journey was just magic. Vipin was a very special intuitive leader who demonstrates and imparts a great passion for his country. Deepu was outstanding with his driving skills and sense of fun. You could not have put a better trip together for us. Every day was exciting as well as a great learning opportunity. The guides had special knowledge that enhanced our trip. The hotel staff were so friendly and responsive. We loved all the points of interest at each place. The cuisine was very special and we are now such advocates for South India cooking. Thank you once again.
