Imagine riding a Royal Enfield through a land where every turn reveals a new world — coconut-fringed lagoons, rolling tea hills, centuries-old temples, and golden beaches. This is South India like you’ve never seen it — raw, rich, and deeply alive.

Starting from the historic port town of Kochi, our journey takes you along quiet backroads to the serene backwaters of Alleppey, through the spice-laden forests of Thekkady, and up into the misty heights of Munnar, where tea plantations stretch as far as the eye can see. You’ll ride through Kodaikanal’s pine forests, feel the spiritual energy of Madurai’s temples, and taste the unique flavors of Chettinad cuisine.

Each day brings new landscapes, new cultures, and new roads — from the majestic Chola temples of Thanjavur to the bohemian streets of Pondicherry, where French charm meets Tamil soul. The ride ends just south of Pondicherry, but your adventure continues with a visit to Auroville, a symbol of unity and peace, and the breathtaking stone carvings of Mahabalipuram, before we wrap up in vibrant Chennai.

This isn’t just a motorcycle tour — it’s a sensory journey across one of India’s most soulful regions. For those who seek freedom, connection, and the joy of the open road, South India is calling.

Tour Plan

Arrive in Fort Kochi
Welcome to Kochi, a city where history whispers from every corner. As you step into this vibrant port town, you'll feel the blend of Portuguese, Dutch, and British influences that have shaped its architecture and culture. Settle into your comfortable accommodations and take a leisurely stroll along the picturesque streets. Visit the iconic Chinese fishing nets, explore the bustling spice markets, and savor the first taste of Kerala’s famed cuisine. Tonight, rest well – your adventure is just beginning.

Kochi to Backwaters (90 km) – A Scenic Coastal Ride
We kick off our journey with a gentle and scenic ride, the perfect introduction to your Royal Enfield and to the unique rhythm of Indian roads. Today’s route leads us south from Kochi along the beautiful Malabar Coast, a relaxed start that lets you settle into the ride while enjoying the first tastes of Kerala’s coastal charm.As we cruise along the palm-lined shoreline, the Arabian Sea glitters to our right, and we pass by a string of serene beaches, quiet fishing villages, and lively local markets. The influence of Kerala’s Christian heritage becomes visible along the way — with whitewashed churches, roadside shrines, and charming colonial-era architecture dotting the route.This easygoing leg is not just about the ride — it’s about soaking in the sights, smells, and sounds of coastal life: fishermen hauling in their nets, children playing cricket on the roadside, and street vendors offering fresh coconuts and spicy snacks.We arrive by late afternoon in Alleppey (Alappuzha), often called the Venice of the East, where a unique overnight experience awaits. We’ll settle into a charming backwater hotel, surrounded by peaceful lagoons, canals, and rice paddies.As the sun sets over the backwaters, you’ll enjoy a warm local dinner and the soothing sound of water lapping — the perfect end to a memorable first day on the road.50 MILES

Backwaters to Thekkady (135 km) – Into the Spice Garden
Today’s ride takes us inland, leaving the calm waters behind as we head toward Kumily, a peaceful town nestled near Periyar National Park. It’s a stunning stretch, winding through lush spice gardens, rolling hills, and dense greenery — the landscape slowly shifting as we approach the majestic Western Ghats.We begin the day by crossing scenic backwater regions, where coconut palms sway over turquoise canals and local life flows in vibrant color — women in bright saris, fishing boats, and sleepy riverside villages. As the road rises, the air cools and the scent of cardamom, pepper, and clove fills the air.This stage is a beautiful transition — from tropical lowlands to the spice-covered slopes of the hills. By the time we reach Kumily, you’ll feel like you’ve entered another world.93 MILES
