Take a sightseeing tour to the capital city, Thiruvananthapuram, the pristine beaches of Kovalam and Varkala, backwaters at Alleppey, forests of Periyar, Parambikulam Sanctuary, the town of Munnar, and Lakshadweep Islands in the Arabian Sea.

One can go shopping for idols, vessels, and lamps in metal. Traditional jewellery, horn carvings, and several other artefacts are also potential buys. The choice of outdoor activities in Kerala is vast and a traveller has the option from angling, boating, canoeing, kayaking, surfing, and white water rafting to camping, mountaineering, para-sailing, and trekking.
