Solo travel

My airbnb check in was not pleasant. Upon check in they said if I need AC I need to pay extra 300 per day. Total 900 for 3 days. Booking from mytrip website it was not mentioned. It was burning hot. Felt I got scammed. Back water cruise was a great experience. Love the food. They even have some good American food too. Wish I had more time to explore.

Solo travel

My experience in Kerala was absolutely eye-opening and inspiring. As a 23 year-old female traveler I was a bit nervous before my trip but I felt extremely safe!! The locals were some of the kindest, most welcoming welcoming people I’ve ever met. *Must-does:* 1. Watch a Kathalaki show - The traditional dance-drama is mesmerizing, and the performers’ talent is unforgettable 2. Explore the backwaters - Not only are they beautiful, but you’ll also see old Chinese fishing techniques that they still use today! Visiting the small fisher families’ islands was wonderful too. If you want recommendations on safe homestays, tea houses, trusted drivers, or hidden gems, feel free to reach out!!!! The region of Kerala is the land of color and art. The place where nature and community come together to create the most beautiful patterns you’ll ever see.

Kerala is friendly and safe in general. But if you are a solo traveller, you might want to exert caution, roaming around alone, in secluded places , after dark. Expect a bit of mostly harmless, but irritating staring, if you end up wearing revealing clothes.

kerala is known as god's own country and like the term suggests it's a paradise for travellers. but like every other place in this world there is a fair percentage of crime happens annually in kerala also. When you're planning to visit kerala I suggest you to avoid shady and dark places . and try to avoid visiting places or unknown areas after 8'0 clock in the evening.

as a North Indian woman, Kerala was a breath of fresh air. I did not have to worry about stares, unwanted attention or harassment. the cleanliness is also top notch. if you are a foreigner or a solo woman of any nationality and want to explore India, start with Kerala. it is the state with the highest literacy rate and it shows. even when I was wearing more revealing clothes and standing out from the locals who were dressed conservatively, people didn't give me any unwanted attention. (PS. don't follow my example. why take risk dressing in revealing clothes. always wear what the locals wear unless it's a private property or private beach). anyway, 10/10 experience would recommend.
