Holiday Feedback

We were so looking forward to seeing Kerala and our trip did not disappoint us in any respect. Brijesh made us so welcome and we really do feel that we have made a great friend as well as him coordinating all arrangements for our trip with great humour and diligence. We had so many laughs with him, leaving him this time was quite sad! Dixon was a blessing too with snacks, drinks and an air conditioned car popping up when we most needed him as the cycling was very hot at times.The arrangements for our trip were seamless and you had really understood very well what we wanted with all of it suiting us perfectly. We stayed in the most lovely places with Teak house, Paneilly and Develokam being some of our favourites. Camellia house and the tree house was also just lovely.Altogether another brilliant holiday and we are heartily recommending you to anyone that asks us who arranged our trip. Thank you to you all.Mellinda & Richard Allison 2016-11-13

Just a short note to say we had a fantastic week. The organisation was brilliant. We also enjoyed Vipin's company and knowledge of the flora and fauna. Our only disappointment was that we only booked one week! It has certainly been our best week in India. We would love to come back to Kerala and do more with Kalypso. We will certainly recommend you to our friends.  Harry & Gill 2015-02-09
