Our Kerala travel experts have personally vetted every single hotel, guide, and experience to fit our stringent notion of authenticity and excellence. 

The Timeless Allure of Kerala's Luxury Experience

What truly sets Luxury Kerala Tour apart is its ability to weave together seemingly contrasting elements into a seamless tapestry of indulgence. One moment you are being taught age-old principles of martial arts by a Kalaripayattu Master under the heavens of a private courtyard; the next, you are holding a flute glass of champagne in your infinity pool, gazing over an endless sea of tea plantations.

Here is where the land of Kerala exists in a faint grey zone, silent before booming loud contemporary Comfort. The backwaters that have sustained communities for centuries, now host floating Villas with glass bottle floats, allowing you to watch the aquatic world beneath you as you enjoy your morning coffee.

The same species root that shaped world history now leads to emitted cooking sessions where Michelin star techniques meet grandmother's recipe passed down through the generations. This harmonious blend of Heritage and modernity creates a travel luxury experience that feels both Timeless and cutting edges.

“I would highly recommend this company!”

“I came in a group of 5 young women and we were a little nervous about coming to India. TRAVELOSEI made us feel very safe here. They picked us up from our hotel and even though we had a plan of things we wanted to visit, they are very flexible. We made several detours each day and they took us wherever we wanted to go. The drivers were excellent and the tour guides were very knowledgable. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with them, we will absolutely use them when we come back!”

“We had a terrific time!”

“I went to India with a few coworkers for a business trip and we booked a Taj Mahal tour on our 24 hr layover in Delhi. Travelosei took care of everything - they organized the car transport (including a last minute swap when we had to switch hotels) and planned a lovely tour of Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, and a few artisans. At every stop, we skipped the lines and our guide Talib knew all the best places to get great views and take nice pictures of us. He also shared a lot of history as we walked through the sites. We had a terrific time and cannot recommend TRAVELOSEI enough.”

“Thank you so much TRAVELOSEI”

“The amount of knowledge and details in his stories as well as history. He was also wonderful at guiding us through the local culture how to act where how and what not to. Javed was very patient and very kind to my many questions about the smallest things. Such a good experience with TRAVELOSEI in general. This was our second trip to Agra but the first time with them. And what a pleasure. When I come back or I know anyone going to Agra I will diffidently suggest them to have Javed to guide them around if he has time. Thank you so much TRAVELOSEI”
