But we will travel from town to cities. \u00a0We start at Cochin and ends at Travandrum, capital city of Kerala. \u00a0We will only travel at night.<\/li>\n<li>What not to expect: \u00a0Kerala is not Singapore. It&#8217;s all about culture, traditions and scenary. \u00a0With me, you are not likely to enjoy 4-5 star dining. \u00a0Most nights, we will stay in 3-4 star hotels. \u00a0The only thing that may be comfortable is transport, altho you are likely to hit your head against the roof of the jeap with bumpy roads. \u00a0Cockcroaches are about to mature, and they are now 2 months old.<\/li>\n<li>Food &#8211; you bet most of it will be Indian and Kerala food, altho most of what you see locally in Singapore will be available. Please do not expect Chinese food, Bring some packets of instant noods, if you are really unable to eat Indian food, which is not chilly hot, but have a lot of spices. \u00a0Water &#8211; Kerala is one of the cleanest state in terms of hygience. Bottled water is easily available. But, we shall keep our eyes open for fresh vegetable salads and some street food. \u00a0Maybe the last day, we can have a down pour.<\/li>\n<li>Visa &#8211; Now, Singapore need a visa.<\/li>\n<li>Cost: \u00a0I cannot firm a number, altho I know it will not cost a bomb. Hotels, food, transport, driver, tips. \u00a0I would ask you budget USD 80 a day, altho I think it will be more like USD 60 per day. \u00a0Flight excluded.<\/li>\n<li>Language &#8211; Kerala has one of the best English speaking population. In fact, many speak British English.<\/li>\n<li>Trip is confirmed. \u00a0Please keep these dates if you are able to go. Please have +6594894360 in your Whatsapp. I am in Bkk for almost two weeks.
