Clients also visit Ranakpur, a city celebrated for its magnificent architecture and marble Jain temple, considered one of the most spectacular of its kind.

The cruise begins with a stay at the famous Leela Kovalam hotel, a beautiful, sprawling property situated on a hillside overlooking the Arabian Sea. The cruise includes a stop at the coastal town of Kanyakumari on India's southern tip. Renowned for its spectacular sunrises and sunsets over the ocean, the town is also a popular pilgrimage destination thanks to its Bhagavthy Amman temple, dedicated to the God Shiva, and Our Lady of Ransom Church, a center of Indian Catholicism.
