Our trip was a really good experience for us all. The cycling took us through some beautiful areas and Vipin was careful with the safety aspects shepherding us through the busy towns and junctions. Vipin was knowledgeable about the plants and scenery and knew the route thoroughly (having clearly done it many times). Rajeev was also always attentive with the van and supplies and extremely helpful. Vipin and Rajeev were particularly good for us given that I was doing this with our two sons aged 12 and 13 who have not undertaken a trip such as this before. They were patient and had the right attitude throughout.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Kalypso and Vipin for friends to do similar tours in the future. Indeed, I gave the credit to Kalypso upon us finishing the tour.  

We just wanted to say what a fantastic time we had over the last two weeks on your cycle tour of Kerala. We saw some wonderful things, ate some amazing food and stayed in some lovely accommodation. But best of all, we were looked after superbly by our guide, Francis and driver, Das, they were so kind and helpful, nothing was too much trouble for them to make our time more enjoyable. Thank you. 

I just wanted to talk about the wonderful experience we had with Kalypso this past month. My families 6 day trip to Kerala was one of our most memorable because everything was planned so well by Kalypso. I would like to especially thank Sujith for the awesome itinerary. Our guide Vineeth who was fun and knowledgeable and also very quick to respond to all our requests. Our driver Deepu was very friendly, professional and made us feel safe.

All our accommodations were charming and our hosts were very gracious (special shout-out to Jacob, from Kurialacherry House, his house was beautiful and clean. Him and his family were so welcoming).

It was wonderful to see a new side of India. People were very nice, the food was amazing and the natural beauty of Kerala was breathtaking. I would definitely want to come back again and stay even longer.

Thank you to Kalypso for the spectacular experience! It was definitely unforgettable. 

We would just like to thank Sujith and Anna for helping us plan our 10 multi activity tour in Kerala.

Also, a very big thank you to Abid our guide, who was incredibly helpful, very knowledgeable, and genuinely great company. Deepu our driver, was never very far away, always on time and looked after us right up to the end making sure we were in the right hotel before leaving us. Vineeth was also great, very knowledgeable, safety conscious and fun to be with. Last but by no mean least thank you to our boat driver Moni it was a lovely touch having a cup of tea with his family at the end.

We would definitely use Kalypso Adventures again (that’s if you’d have us!) and will not hesitate in recommending you. You are the best!!!!!
 

We wanted to let you know we had a great holiday and to pass on our appreciation of the enthusiasm, energy and knowledge of Shinas which went to making the holiday so great. We also appreciated all of the support provided to us by Das, they make a great team. Most of the hotels we stayed at we would highly recommend and they certainly provided us with good service and good food and were a key part in the success of our holiday. Finally we would definitely recommend your company to others interested in exploring India 

Just wanted to let you know that we really enjoyed our Kalypso holiday. The cycling routes we travelled were great - so many fascinating things to see and people to talk to, along with stunning landscapes and views. Accommodation choices were also ideal, set in beautiful surroundings with delicious food and a range of interesting additional activities on offer.

Finally, Roger and Akil could not have been better- they really made the holiday, and looked after us so well. Akil’s driving was faultless, being skilled, careful and calm throughout, regardless of the challenges. And Roger was the perfect guide. He was really knowledgeable, and so good at spotting incidental opportunities for us to find out new and interesting things. He was always helpful and flexible, adapting our itinerary if and when we requested, as well as being patient and encouraging and setting the level of challenge just right. He was also great company- we really enjoyed our chats!

We will sing Kalypso’s praises wide and far - thanks again for organising such a great itinerary and having such wonderful staff.
