Ayurveda, which literally means the science of life (Ayur = Life, Veda = Science), ayurveda is an ancient medical science which was developed in India thousands of years ago. Believed to have been passed on to humans from the Gods themselves, Ayurveda developed and evolved into what it is today from several ancient treatises, most notably Adharva Veda which dates back to five thousand years. The ancient Vedic literature by sages has clearly laid out instructions to maintain health as well as fighting illness through therapies, massages, herbal medicines, diet control and exercise.

Wherever you go in Kerala, you will find people aware and proud of their traditions and culture. From ancient dance forms like Kathakali to Kalaripayattu, believed to the mother of all other martial arts in the world, to Ayurveda, the 5000 year old time tested path to rejuvenation, every cultural tradition of Kerala is observed with as much enthusiasm as it is practiced. So it comes as no surprise that festivals like the Snake Boat Race in Alappuzha and Elephant Race at Guruvayoor are still performed like the first one centuries ago. Do get in touch with us and we’ll be happy to arrange a guided tour that will let you experience the true culture of Kerala.
