My wife and I spent ten days cycling and sightseeing in Kerala guided by Vipin and driven by Vivek. A fantastic trip. We stayed mainly off the main roads, but even when on them, the traffic wasn't as bad as I expected. We were on hard tail mountain bikes which were fine but gravel or even road bikes would have been better. The scenery was beautiful, the climbs challenging enough, the hotels wonderful and the food great. Vivek always followed us in the van so that if it got too wet, or we had enough climbing, we could just jump in. To sum up, this is a beautiful area for a cycling trip and Art of the Bicycle organized and supported us perfectly. I'd go again. Still working on editing photos and video......!
