We came upon Green Earth Trails serendipitously, and while we would not normally choose a tour company when we travel, were impressed with the suggested itinerary and costs for a week in Kerala.
Our driver Sidhu was superb, navigating the intense traffic in the cities as well as on
the narrow mountain roads with a quiet confidence and good humour, taking photos and generally showing us around places he knew we would enjoy and always getting it right.
Without exception, the hotels chosen by Green Earth Trails were exquisite, and representative of the local areas, from plantation stays to wildlife experience. There was even an elephant sighting in the Periyar National Park which was on our itinerary. At each stopover, the guides selected were excellent and added to our understanding of the area.
Our representative Benjamin was regularly in touch and managed to assist us through several personal challenges we had en route. It was reassuring to have such great team support. I can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you.

Our kerala Trip was very nice and comfortable. We enjoyed a lot.All thanks to Vaisakh from Green Earth Trails.The tour plan was suitable for carrying young child. Hotels were very good. Arrangement for local sightseeing was well organized and most of the places were covered in the trip. Car driver Unni P was humble, well aware of the places and also punctual. Arrangement for houseboat in Aleppy was awesome and most enjoyable in the trip. 😊

We planned 4 days in Kerala. After looking around what would be the best way to maximize our time, we came across Green Earth Trails. After some some chatting, we were able to craft the most amazing planning (I previously thought not possible).
Culture immersion: exclusive (and great) tea plantation and spice plantation tours, amazing landscapes, tree houses in Munnar, boat tour in Allepey, oh and the amazing tour in Periyar Park.... Highly recommended!
Benjamim, thank you so much for the experiences! Mohan, thank you very much for showing us how beautiful Kerala is!

My Partner and I have traveled together to many countries vietnam Cambodia Thailand America Canada Australia New Zealand and Europe in the 10 years we have been together. Generally we book places and plan our own itinerary. This trip was different as we relied totally on the services of Green Earth Trails..
It all came about because we were invited to a wedding and having never visited India before we decided to extend our stay we were recommended to contact Benjamin at Green Earth by a contact at their parent company. We gave Benjamin our start and end dates and dates we were at wedding and some ideas of what we wanted and a rough budget. Over s few weeks we refined the intinary until we were happy with it. Having little knowledge and no experience of India we relied heavily on their advice and choice of venues.
I was like a fish out of water as we normally hand picked each venue and booked all our travel in advance. I need not have worried as from the moment we arrived at the airport we were met by Benjamin himself and taken to meet our first driver. From then it worked like clockwork according to the plans. Pleasure we were able to request variations had help with shopping and were given lots of information as we travelled. We stayed in home stays. Resorts. Hotels. Houseboats we travelled by car.train and plane we had boat trips safaris and best of all the entrances and english speaking guides were arranged so we just had to have cash for tips and shopping and meals..
I can fully recomend their serv ice if you want a fully escorted trip personalised to your taste.
I took over 2000 images so its impossible to do justice within this review I have was selected a few.

We have recently returned from a 6 week private small group tour with friends to Sri Lanka (16 nights) Southern India and Kerala (15 nights) and Rajasthan ( 10 nights) organized entirely by GreenEarth Trails. As well travelled "seniors" who have done a lot of private tours in many other countries, this trip was up there with the one of the best and most comfortable ever to a fascinating part of the world.
Offering so much for travellers interested in fauna, flora, history, architecture, culture food and people all rolled out in absolute comfort and safety. Green Earth came recommended by friend from Europe but we never the less made contact with 3 Indian specialist travel companies asking for a suggested itinerary and quote.
Green Earth won by a mile always being prompt,detailed, and professional with their replies and best value for money.
The trip delivered even more than we expected to being met at the luggage belt in airport and delivered onto our flights, exceptionally comfortable tailer made touring vehicles wonderful considerate drive and guides, inclusions of all entry fees to NPs , historic sites, local guides, jeep safaris breakfasts and dinners and 4 or 5 Star Hotels.Best food we have ever had on any trip. . We couldn't believe the value for money. Even a mesmerising private show by one of Keralas best performers of the ancient Keralan Kathakali traditional dance drama on the boat in the backwaters of Kerala.
Thankyou Benjamin and Babichan and Pramod .

Our vacay in Kerala was very pleasant and relaxing bcoz Vaisakh from Green Earth Trails took care of our hotel bookings, car for sightseeing etc. As it was our first trip to Kerala we didn't know much but our driver Jishnu was very helpful and he was with us throughout our 6 day trip whenever we needed the car. We stayed at some of the best hotels in Munnar, Thekkady, Kumarakom and a private houseboat in Alleppey.

We came across Green Earth Trails at the last minute as we were intially on our way to Sri Lanka and had to redirect our trip towards South India 4 days prior to our travelling date due to the Easter attacks. We are extremely lucky to have found them as we obtained excellent service for a trip that was planned with such short notice. Benjamin helped us plan our 11 day trip day by day, made excellent recommendations and was entirely flexible to suit our needs and budget as well as available for our queries 7/7. All of the accommodation was top notch. The personal driver was fantastic and the car really comfortable even for long trips. The tours were well planned according to our schedule and the tour guides very informative. I would highly recommend them to anyone travelling to South India
