Christmas cracker in exotic Goa and Kerala If the thought of yet another Christmas with the in-laws fills you with dread why not treat yourself and your family this year and head for the sunshine of India, with a three-week twin-centre beach holiday to Kerala and Goa.

Indian specialist, Goaway, is currently offering a great deal on Christmas packages with three weeks in the sun up for grabs for just £899 per person departing on 05 December, including flights from Gatwick to Kerala and then home again from Goa to Gatwick on 26 December (or Manchester on 27 December), transfers and 20 nights bed and breakfast accommodation, plus an overnight train journey between Kerala and Goa.

Accommodation in Goa is at the family run Colonia de Braganza hotel in the quiet resort of Calangute in North Goa, close to the beach, and in Kerala at the Jeevan Beach Resort in the resort of Kovalam. Both hotels are ideally located for exploring the region and for total relaxation in the sun. The Jeevan Beach Resort also has the Jeevan Ayurveda Centre where experienced and qualified masseurs are on hand to help rejuvenate, mind, body and soul with this unique form of ancient Indian massage.

Christmas time is one of the best times of the year to visit Goa and Kerala where the days are filled with blue skies and endless sunshine, and temperatures average around 30 degrees with much less humidity than other times of the year. Goa is shedding its image as a backpacker’s retreat and is increasingly attracting holidaymakers for its magnificent scenic beauty, stunning beaches and colonial architecture.

Kerala is a unique destination with its own culture, natural beauty and wildlife, plus the endless backwaters, 900km of navigable lagoons, lakes, canals, estuaries and deltas of 44 rivers that drain into the Arabian Sea.

Indian specialist, Goaway, offers tailor made holidays throughout Goa and Kerala including relaxing cruises on traditional houseboats; unusual hotels in exotic locations throughout the region, many of which can only be reached by boat and offer fabulous wildlife viewing opportunities, plus resort stays on the pristine beaches, said to be some of the best in India.

Goaway offers the option to upgrade to one of the more luxurious properties in the region or even a traditional houseboat, plus pre-book many tour options such as to the backwaters, wildlife reserves and tea plantations to make this holiday the trip of a lifetime and one of the best Christmas presents ever!
