One of the many fascinating experiences for visitors to Kerala is the real experience of Kerala home stay. These are literally home away from home, allowing you to get close with the host family and the community that lives in an area. Nothing beats the welcoming atmosphere, delicious home-cooked food and chance to meet friendly local people that you get when staying in the home of a Keralan family. Homestay offers an insight into the culture, traditions, history and everyday life of an Indian family. What’s more, guests get the chance to enjoy authentic Indian food at its very best - home cooked.
Many Home stays offer a range of activities which give guests the unique opportunity to experience the specific culture of the area. With everything that Home stays have to offer, they aren’t just a base from which to spend a few days exploring the local area, they are a holiday destination in themselves.
Activities will differ from home to home and depending on the location. For instance, in the backwaters of Kerala, many Home stays offer backwater cruises in houseboats and trips down the narrow canals in canoes.
In plantation and hill stations, hosts can take guests trekking and arrange guided walks through spice gardens and forests. Depending on the family, many hosts will offer to take guests round the sights of their town or village, sharing local insights and an experience far removed from the usual tourist trudge. Hosts are always happy to inform a guest of neighborhood walks where they can get a feel for the district and even meet some locals.
