Welcome to Kerala. Thank you for visiting our state.

The stereotype which foreigners heaving into their mind is old Delhi and Mumbai's Dharavi and they think all india is just like that because of their media ,but na man ..India is 7th biggest country on earth you have tones of amazing places to visit and they are not like old Delhi or Dharavi

@@benandhaley You ppl should have come after monsoon season.This is the PEAK of summer and before pre monsoon shower which is the hottest time in kerala.Even we are dying bcz of the heat, and humidity makes it worse 😂.But the good thing is that you can walk and see everything at summer,which I think is what ppl comes for.During june -aug and nov -dec it can rain on any random day,which might spoil plans.But it depends on the person if they like rain.whether they like to see MORE greenery, walk in somebodys lawn or field ,experience cool breeze,drink some tea and vada in a rooadside stall when its drizzling and walk on wet road and muddy soil after a good rain.And the rain here in kerala is a lot more refreshing than the rain in many other countries and i've personally experienced this as well...

Learnings: 1. Biriyani and Mango curry is an unusual combination 😅. You should try Porotta and Beef Roast (as a meal) for sure & fried rice and chili chicken (as a meal) 2. Everybody is indoor because it is so hot outside; (west loves sunny days, kerala loves cold weather) Kerala cold = west warm = 70 degree farenheit. Try not to go out during the day time, the state is on Yellow Heat Alert now. 3. People are super helpful and can share a lot of information that is not present on Google Search;

In south India it’s auto

India has 28 states and 8 Union Territories. Foreigners often visit Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Agra, or Rajasthan and find it busy. Sometimes, they visit Kerala and say, "I never knew India had such relaxed places; it's different from what I expected." You guys only explored cities, which is just a small part of the country. I can tell you about more than 15 states and Union Territories like Lakshadweep, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Ladakh, Puducherry, Jammu and Kashmir, Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Goa, Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim, and Uttarakhand in India. Then, you probably say the same thing, "This doesn't seem like India." But if you keep visiting just Delhi or Mumbai repeatedly, you say, "This is what India feels like." However, many of the 15 or more states don't match that perception.

Nice video. Enjoyed it. Sorry to see you struggle in the sweltering summer heat. Summer this year has been exceptionally brutal. Try to avoid going out between 11AM and 4PM unless you are in hill-stations like Munnar, Thekkady, Wayanad etc. Those hill-stations - with their rolling tea/coffee/cardamom plantations and winding roads - are great visual treats and the main reason why Kerala is called 'God's Own Country'. Hope you will have a wonderful and pleasant time in Kerala and elsewhere in India. Looking forward to your next video...

Love the content, my family and I need to make it a point to visit Kerala in monsoon season. 🔥🔥🔥

south india is best visited during monsoon season approximately … June through september. Cool weather. The trade off , of course , there are some days that it could rain continously for a couple if days , but its like in the US , during winter , there may be that bad one week. ( in Arizona , South of Flagstaff we dont have to worry about snow), but otherwise Monsoon is the best time to visit South India.

Mam you are visiting kerala in highest summer season, ie Apr and May. The season for visit is Sep to Dec

What a wonderful couple you both are. Great to see you smiling always. Thanks for sharing.

I’d love to visit India! What an adventure! New subscriber here, glad I found your channel!❤❤

Guys u r at the No. 1 state of India by literacy rate, least poverty rate, and many more. Kerala is known as the spice bowl of india.If u have time visit munnar and vagamon known as the switzerland of india. Only place where u can see the most beautiful estates of tea and cardamon plantations and all spices if u want to.

Welcome to kerala guys enjoy ur trip lol🎉❤

i think, you should shortlist some amazing places, cultural stuff, hill station, fort, monument, temple and unesco sites.....etc where you can visit, always check weather of destination place (comfortable or not)

There is water metro boat which is air-conditioned. Anyway as of now summer season

That was a nice video. Please visit to Varkala

Come to Kerala between June to Feb for cooler weather

This is fkng hot season in Kerala, Try to visit Kerala in the Monsoon season!

Hot out there keep hydrated love from kerala

This video gonna be viral 💯

Oh nooo you came at the wrong time. Monsoon is the perfect time to visit Kerala

Welcome to kerala but this is summer time you try to visit munnar, thekkady its a hilly area as well as cool climate

Enjoy Kerala. Use the mozzy spray only in evenings and nights, daytime is fine. Also, say adipoli instead of thanks and see the smile on their face😊

Best time to visit Kerala. Peek summer. 🤣. My place is just a few mins walk from your hotel though I'm not in India right now. I could see my apartment through your window. If you come out of your hotel and walk towards the left you will reach Bolgaty palace which is a Dutch palace converted into hotel. Its a nice place to visit especially in the evening. The synagogue in fort kochi is a nice place to visit. Around 20 kms from your hotel you have Cherai beach and many more. Being in kerala during hot summer, you should probably visit Munnar which is a hill station 100km from kochi and spend couple of days there. The temperature will be much lower and you get to enjoy nice greenery.

This, India is experiencing severe hot summer, hope there will rains sooner. then India turns magical. In summers, we try to avoid going out in the afternoos, (11am to 4pm sometimes 4:30) ..

kerala🔥🔥🔥

Come to northeast India you will love it especially Meghalaya and Sikkim

This vlog is nice

donot forget to visit Alleppey and house boat ride. you will love it. and dont feel shy do bargain when you are india. love from india. hope you get treated like a king and queen here❤

You should definitely visit the state of Meghalaya. Little known facts about it. Its a state covered with clouds, mountains, pine trees. Rainiest place on planet earth is in this state of India (mawsynram). Asia's cleanest village of exists here (mawlynong). Living root bridge (testament of human bio-engineering since thousands of years without any modern tools and how to live in harmony with nature) , cold climate, crystal clear lakes where you can literally see the surface and the reflection of your boat, canyons, caves, places that might remind you of Narnia, hundreds of waterfalls, completely different culture, language, food. Cuisine is more closer to south east asian cuisine. Also only matrilineal state in India. You might not find too many hindi speakers but almost everyone speaks English. Even street vendors can speak manageable english so not much issue with communication. This is just one of the states of north East. Each state of north east is unique in its own way for their natural beauty. Total 8 states also called 7 sisters and 1 brother state (sikkim is the brother)

Have you ever been in Trivandrum.. So beautiful.. Lot of tourist spots

oh glad you are having fun 😅, havn't been to Rishikesh and Dharamshala yet?

It looks cleaner than I thought.

Try the Odomos cream from Kerala, which is effective at repelling insects while also moisturizing and providing a pleasant aroma.
