Highlights

Kochi, Allepey homestay, Periyar Tiger Reserve, Kerala backwaters, Varkala.

Stunningly picturesque Varkala beach provides a relatively peaceful alternative to the now commercialized Kovalam. The setting of this beach is striking enough to take your breath away, with a long winding stretch of cliff and views that extend over the Arabian Sea. A paved footpath runs along the length of the cliff, bordered by coconut palms, quaint shops, beach shacks, hotels, and guest houses. Nestled at the bottom of the cliff is a long stretch of sparkling beach, reached by steps leading down from the cliff top.
Varkala Location:
Varkala is located between Alleppey and Kollam, around one hour north of Trivandrum (Thiruvananthapuram), in India's southern state of Kerala.

Brazil Tall Ship Sailing Adventure With GAP Adventures
Rio de Janeiro, Mamangu-Ecological Reserve, Paraty Unesco World Heritage Site, Ilha Grande, secluded beaches, remote wilderness, sailing on the Tocorime
Description

A fantastic journey aboard the Tocorimé Tall Ship sailing along the most exotic landscapes of the Brazilian coastline. Pass mountains dipping into the sea, isolated beaches and inviting blue-green waters. Get involved-grab the till, climb the mast or dive to inspect the hull-or just to sit back and relax, and let the world sail by.

Helping others while traveling can instill a greater understanding of the world and teach your children about the importance of community, compassion, and consideration for others. A volunteer vacation that your whole family can participate in may just be one of the most rewarding experiences that you will share together. Although you can certainly volunteer locally and help those less fortunate than yourselves at home, volunteering overseas allows you to immerse yourselves in a foreign culture, strengthen your bonds, enrich your family, and create memories that will last a lifetime.
