Kerala that attracts tourists. The place was not much known destinations to all
earlier. But recently after 1960’s and 70’s Kovalam is one of the most visited
beaches of Kerala. Recently the Kerala government started water sports within

top five beaches. Most of the international tourist visit here to enjoy the

destinations in Kerala.
Backwaters
Backwaters are one of the major important attractions of Kerala. If you
are trying to visit here by the month of December, then that is going to be a
memorable experience for you. Backwaters are one of the primary programmed tour
organised by the Kerala Tourism which is promoted all over India as well as on
international basis. The package usually comes for 3 nights and 2 days,
including meals (3 times meal a day). If you need to extend the course of

package based charge. Per head charge in the houseboats roughly starts from
1500/- to 2000/-, (including rental + meals). If you want to extend the course
of your ride and additional charges might be added as per the terms and
conditions applied.
Hill Stations are
another tourist destinations of Kerala
There are plenty of hill stations in Kerala which are actually famous
for high mountains, gorges and deep cut valleys. The wildest lands are covered
with dense forests. Those of you who are not aware of Kerala’s rich coffee plantations,
for them a visit to this place in the month of January is always a best tourist
plan.
These plantations were formed during the 19th and 20th
century during the time of British era. After the independence these coffee
plantations are privately owned by various communities. A visit to Kerala is
incomplete unless you don’t visit these unique spots for tourism in January.
Rare wildlife reserve of
Kerala
Kerala is one of the most unique tourist destinations that has humid
sub-tropical climate. Kerala is a wild life reserve for some of the most rarely
found wild lives of India. That includes Bengal tiger, Asian elephant, grizzled
giant squirrel, lion tailed macaque. The evergreen rain forests are the most
favourable shelter for these animals in Kerala.
Visiting Kerala during this time of the year is always going to be an
additional advantage for you. When you consider Kerala as the best place for tourism in the month of January always plan a trip well before
the month. Try to organise your trip to come in this place during the early January
or by the end of November. It will help you to avoid the tourist rush of the
peak season.
Other attractions of Kerala
Kerala is famous for its exotic waterfalls as well as some of the
ancient lighthouses. These are also one of the reasons for which the
international tourists visit this place.
Those of you who are visiting Kerala for the first time, for them seeing
Onam is a major festival. This festival is celebrated in Chettikulangara
temple. Sivaratri is also another festival which is celebrated in Kerala.
Kerala is also famous for its rich cultural heritage too. Wearing a
Kathi Vesham is one of the popular make up that Kathakali artists usually wear
while performing such arts. One of the
popular sports over here is Kalariyapattu and Vallam Kali.
How to plan your trip

connects Kerala. If you are planning to avail a flight then also it is not a
very hectic journey to reach here. All the privately owned domestic airlines
connect this place.
All you need to do is just organise your trip planning before setting
out for a trip. If you are not good in
planning your own trip, you might opt for conducted tour packages, which might
take barely around 5,000/- to 5,500/- for the entire package. If you are
planning to visit this place all alone, make sure you are carrying a local map
of Kerala to understand the locations. You can also hire a guide for making
your trip more convenient.
Atacama Desert in Childe
Situated on
the west of the Andes Mountains and on the Pacific coast, it is a dry non-polar
desert. Prior to the geographical location of this place it remains dry for the
whole year. The excessive heat during the summer season in Atacama is compared
with Mars.
But if you
are coming to this place during the rainy seasons you will definitely see a
heavy rainfall. When you have plans for winter tourism in January and choosing the Atacama Desert in Childe, my
suggestion would be hire a jeep and travel through the rocky mountainous roads
of the Andes Mountain. During the summer seasons it is not a good plan to visit
this place as it remains extremely hot. Temperatures go up to such an extreme
extent that literally it is impossible for a beast or a tree or any animals or
beasts to sustain.
Reason of tourist
attraction
Except a dry deserted desert there isn’t anything for sure to cherish
over here. But if you are coming here with your beloved, all you can do is
enjoy a stress free holiday with your date. May be driving lazily through the
rocky mountains of Alcama or enjoying the peaceful tranquil scenic beauty of a
lonely desert by sitting with your beloved on the balcony of your tourist lodge
slowly sipping a wine together.
If you are adventure fanatic then try out the solar car racing. Every
year it is held because, it is one of the most popular sports for the local
people residing over here.
Atacama foot race is another popular races that is also conducted every
year. If you are lucky visitor right at that time when these races are held,
you might take a part in them too.
Rich flora and fauna are another important factor that drives the tour
fanatics here. If you are a nature lover, you must bask into the diverse
variety of flora found over here. This is the only factor for which people come
here in the month of January for enjoying the wild beauty of mystical nature.
Where to stay
When you organise tourism in Alcama
in this January you have to stay in
San Pedro De Atacama. It is the only place where you might find a place to get
a tourist resort. But when you are coming here on the last month of the year,
don’t forget to change the USA currency dollars into local Mexican shillings,
or else you might face a little trouble to convert your currency notes.
Belize, Mexico
Ever had an
experience of driving thorough the Central American coastline and seeing a huge
caption that reads ‘bienvenido a Belice’? If you are not from USA? Well,
obviously that is going to be a unique experience for you. Because, if you are
visiting this amazing place for winter tourism
in January for the first time you are really going to enjoy an exotic
experience. People usually visit here during the summer seasons. But if you are
trying to visit here on the last months of the year, then get ready for some
exotic fun and unlimited Mexican county liquor. Sounds tongue twisting and
lusty, right? If you are planning to visit this place during the chilly winter
seasons then you are going to enjoy the enigmatic beauty of the winter tourism in January.
Main tourist
attractions
Primary known for tourist sports like scuba diving, snorkelling and
fishing on the safe and clear waters. If you want to spend some private moments
in the dense Caribbean Sea, lying down all alone in a private yacht in the
middle of the crystal clear Caribbean waters, then this location must be your
first choice.
Spent a day slowly drinking champagne all day or dating with your
beloved all through the day and then come back by the afternoon. If you are a
party lover, then get ready to set the ground on fire. Because, most of the
tourists come here to enjoy the nonstop celebration of the 31st
night with unlimited liquors and drinks.
If you are visiting single then Belize never gives you a chance to slow
down, because the DJ is going to make you dance throughout the whole night like
a party freak.
If you are not a party goer then also there are other things to give you
a unique feel of tourism in January
when you come to Belize. The wildlife jungle safaris which are conducted in
Belize are major attraction for international tourists. This is because, Belize
is a shelter to some of the rarest wild lives existing on earth. That includes
Belizian jaguars. If you are a bird watcher then the Scarlet Macaws should
definitely catch the attention of most of the travel fanatics. You must see how
they sing and call when they frantically search their mates.
Belize is a place of attraction for the international tourists because
of eco-tourism. It is the only reason for which most of the people usually reach
this place due to various factors. There are huge undisturbed natural areas
over here which are meant for mass ecotourism. One of them is Llano Del Muerto
waterfall in El Salvador.
Get yourself prepared if you are visiting this place during the month of
January. Because, the weather is cold during the December-January months of the
year.
