Thanks for your time.
My father is the driver in the trip😍😍😍😍
the way in which the lady explained in Hindi..brilliant
Bhai hum Hindi bhasi apne bharat ke dusare bhasiyon ki bhasa nahin janate. It is so sad.
@@saurabhsrivastava9541 abe esme sad wali kon si baat hai ,tum bhi seekh sakte ho south ki language
@@jaishankarjaishwal7318 dukh iska hai ki anya bhasha bhasi Hindi ko lekar aksar is liye vamnasya rakhtein hain ki Hindi unpar thopi ja rahi hai. Agar Hindi khetra ke log Hindi seekhenge to is isthi mein bahut jyada sudhar hoga.
@@jaishankarjaishwal7318 so true
One of the rarest you tube channels with good content, good knowledge and good travel experience

Its worth mentioning, I have always noticed that you will always buy something or the other from local shops or vendors even if you like it or not to keep them motivated and happy. Very generous and a good deed from you. GOD BLESS YOU SIR!!!
We went to kerala last week for four days. We stayed -

Covered photo point, matupetty dam, elephant ride, speed boating, echo point, top station, tea gardens, movie shooting locations, and in the evening went for sword show which was fascinating.
Day 2 - Rented the same auto for 1000rs for whole day. Covered many waterfalls, tea gardens, pothemedu viewpoint and enjoyed kathakali performance in the evening.

Enjoyed boat ride through the backwaters, went on an island, bought some fish for dinner, ayurvedic massage is also famous there for relaxation, went sunset point on the boat, did photography. And in the evening served snacks. Night we stayed in a port and fininshed our dinner.
Day 4 - Checked out from boat in the morning and catch our bus for trivandrum. Reached trivandrum in afternoon and went to kovalam beach which is arount 10km from trivandrum from auto. Kovalam beach reached fininshed our lunch on a seaside restaturant with traditional seafood. And enjoyed the evening in the lighthouse and kovalam beach. The beach is full of foreigners.

Aapke episode dekh ke pata nahi kyu badi peace of mind milti hai simplicity is the main thing i like about your channel.
No appreciation is good enough for you Harish ji. Happy to learn that you got your first sponsorship. I can see, you will go long way in this profession. Stay ground as you are today and keep your honesty(which visible from your personality/body language) intact.
thanks - you know the first thing i told the organziation was that i will mention it in the video that this is a sponsored episode... they said they are fine
u r bang on harishji,s positive body language with not a hint of arrogance says all unlike a north indian

Really enjoyed harish sir can’t imagine the food level of cooking is in Kerala and I will watch again to understand the food journey again and the spices collection it’s grown there thanks for the tour and knowledge we are able to gain through u all and the team
Love watching your videos.
The part where you told that everyone must keep open mind while having kerala cuisine because of coconut oil. Appreciate it. Love this attitude. That makes you one great traveler and most importantly a learner. Thank you sir for the videos.
People from Kerala are so sweet.
Not all
Good lady..polite and talking hindi very well..nice video sir😃👌👌
Thekkady , Kumaly spice centre. Good spices milega. Nice views also. Good.
Hi how are you men iam living in California USA This amazing beautiful place I watching the all episodes very nice beautiful BRILLIANT 🇺🇸❤
I like kerala because of its simplicity n genuine sprite of serving food "osm".
20:23 i made this recipe 3 times and every time it come best 😋.. from Maharashtra
Chechi detailed information thannu ,,
👌👌
I miss these Kerala paratha....when I was in Bangalore I regularly used to eat Kerala parathas
Great videos. I especially appreciate how respectful you are. It’s nice to see such a great attitude.
Kerala k Khoobsurati ke baare main suna tha but kabhi jaane ka mauka nahi mila but aapke kerala series ko dekhker itna accha laga ki humne abki sab normal hone per kerala trip ka hi socha hai aapke videos dekh ker ye aur easy ho gaya hai thanks sir ji
Hi Harish, I am glad that you liked Plantain fries. It is actually Plantain and not banana. Banana fry tastes quite different from ripe Plantains!
thanks for correcting me but i thought it was banana fry.. plantatin the tree... and banana is the fruit.. can you elaborate bit on this pl.....
Hi Harish, Plantains are different from dessert bananas and are larger, generally cooked raw as a form of starch like potatoes, yams, sweet potatoes etc. They are also used for making chips when raw. When ripe they are used like dessert bananas and in Kerala for the "Pazham Pori" or fritters. See the Wikipedia article on this en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooking_banana. Anyways, the important thing is that you enjoyed the fritters that is all that matters! Have fun..!
Harish have a good day, GOD gifted both Indo Pak, with beautiful scenic places, weathers, lovely peoples, food, family values,. Wish someday we both explores Indo Pak.
Keep it up, wbr.
Insha Allah...ek din!
Mujhe kerala aake bahut achha laga
Nice..
I think you love traveling more than food. That's why i like your channel.
One of the best food and travel blogger of india highly talented.....
Harish ji,you really love to eat good food. You have a wonderful smile. You use simple language to explain.i had been to kerala 4 times and really love the place and food.
Am enjoying your Kerala videos the most so far
Outstanding, I always wait for your videos, I have visited Kerala but it seems I m seeing it for the first time through your videos. Well done 👌 Harish ji
बहुत से वीडियो देखे
और बहुत नामी लोगों के भी
लेकिन आप का बताने का तरीका बहुत अच्छा लगा
जब आप खाते हुए बताते है तो हमें भी स्वाद आने लगता है
As usual the video was indeed very nice and interesting specially the spice farm.I had heard about cocoa butter but had no idea as to how it is produced or obtained.The ajwain plant reminded me of the one I had in my garden.Its leaves are used to make very tasty pakodas or bhajiyas.The entire leaf is dipped in the batter made of besan and then deep fried.
A very very beautiful episode.
Zabardast pakoda with ajwain leaves... great
Hi Harishji, , I am from Kerala and have visited most of the regular tourist places. But I keep on watching your videos for its simplicity and the way you present it and mingle with the locals so easily. Keep it up Dost.
That farm lady deserves an award
Sir aapne TH-cam pe aag lga di h. People are loving your simplicity and genuineness. Dusre Food channels k comments section me bhi people are praising you :)
Harish ji, namaste. Aapke is video mein maine spices ke bare mein kaafi jaana. Ajwein ke patte aur elaichi pods. So informative. Maharashtra mein bhi kele ke pakode banate hai. Kalonji sehat ko adhik maatra mein faaydemand hai! Thank you.
Sir maine apke kerala ke sare episode series by series dekha aisa lagta h ki maine pura kerala ghum liya apke sath
Periyar spices and ayurvedic garden.. nice... Really appreciate your way of presentation..
Sir, The Way You Presenting the Videos... it's Awesome 👌
I love the fact you enjoy each and every bit of ur travel and food time. Kudos to Mr. Harish and team Visa2Explore
Had gone to Munnar in 2015. It's a heaven on earth. All things are excellent but were a very hard time spending 3 days eating. Couldn't able to digest the smell of coconut oil in foods due to its strong smell. At last, found a veg restaurant that used to cook foods with refined oil. Thank God, It saved us🙏
Your way of describing the whole journey is fantastic. Coconut oil thoda awkward laga kya aapko khanay mein, because we are habitual of other vegetable oils.?
yes first instance but then i got used to and started enjoyoing
Munnar to Thekkady just marvelous..
Very informative video sir.... Spices ke plant kabhi nhi dekhe... Thanx for showing that
The chillie used in chutney was the normal kind. Original kappa mulaku combination is with 'kanthari' chilli.( waiting for trivandrum episode for that)
And the mushroom ularth was superb. The pieces of coconut makes all the difference.
And the glimpses of next episode is awesome. We all are waiting for the elephant ride😊
i am sure you would love to watch elephant ride and this Thekkady journey would be fun to watch.......
when i went to thekkady.. we stayed at a homestay.. it was an amazing experience.
nd the most wonderful thing was the view from the room.. bcz the rooms were on roof.. amazing hills.. cloud nd very cold weather..
great xperience.. at thekkady
this journey video was great.. hope ur thekkady video will be a great treat for us..
waiting for the video.. eagerly.. thank u 😊😊😊
Great vlog again ...thumbs up as always..
India is really vast in terms of food and landscape...and u r really covering them very well....brand ambassador for incredible India
Shandaar Sirji, India is the best country to explore. Greetings from Canada!
very nice episode of your journey and lot places which we can't visit this places till now 🙏🙏🙏 🙏👌
Wow enjoyed this scenic episode interspersed with foody experiences. Kerala is not only beautiful it is very exotic .. and what to talk of freshly smelling spices! Simply loved this journey to Thekkady.
This is one of my favourite ep.
❤️❤️
Thanks bali sir to provide this type of information videos 🙏
हरिशजी खूब सुंदर विडीओ बनाया है आपने . विडीओ देखते समय ऐसा लगता है की हम खुद ही हैं वहाँ पर .
*****HB *****listening to your voice is so soothing..very enjoyable and positive*************
16:00 This lady's explanation is A1***********
Hi Harish Ji.. Hope U are doing good !! Spice farm is something new and worth watching.. Yes! Kappa (Tapioca) goes well with Chicken curry and Fish curry, heavenly taste..
Aapka ye episode aapki journey ki tarah kab pura ho gaya pata hi nahi chala.... Very nice....
Thanks for Sharing Bali Sahib - You Enjoyed your Day and I Enjoyed this post - On my trip to Thekkady I had seen lots of others places of tourist interest - but can not forget the street food of Banana and big mild chilly pakora in my whole life.
like d. Ayurvedic farms , that was the best of this episode looking at those spice farms was great most of them have medicinal values
Hello bali sir....so so refreshing your videos...i really enjoying kerala most....and eagerly waiting for the next one..keep fit and god bless u.
your channel is best choice to view to get all beautiful locations of india and offcourse traditional food..:)
Spice Farm was a treat to visit and Food was delicious simple and best . 👍
Harish Bhai , my whole family watch your show and enjoy. In your yearly concluding remarks you said that you will not respond to all comments due to health issues. We wish you best of health and fitness.One reason i can guess for your deteriorating health is that you never left any gravy or chattni at any place and even eat it with spoon. second you always search for what in addition is offered as free.the happiness comes to your face after eating something as free is priceless/mind-blowing Your eager search for getting something as free is really commendable. its just the lighter part, Never mind and keep making good videos.
But you misread or misunderstood i never said there is anything wrong with my health.... only thing i wanted to highlight was that to write back to comments... i had to cut down on my sleep time... now what happens when you sleep less it affects your health.....
Thank you Harishji. Amazing video. I like your simplicity and honesty. Well done 👍🏼
VERY GOOD SHE SPEAKS GOOD HINDI
yes very fluent and knowledgeable
In kerala people love to speak Hindi
Shandar journey sir bhot dil baag baag ho geya thank you sir itna achaa work ke liye god bless you and your team
Big Fan of Your Chennal. I am Planing a trip in next feb, from Delhi-Udaipur-Kerala-Indore-Delhi by road on my car. Already watched your almost all journeys and now watching again to note down important spots to visit and some tips.
Sir maja aa gaya...Kadi patta ki smell 10 din tak nahi jati...Kadi paat bahut accha hota hai
Very nice...your unconditional love for food , travel and nature is inspiring
Corona virus ke chalte el month lockdown ke chalte apke sath pure kerala ka enjoy kr rhe h
Cardomon I love an essential spice in ones tiffin box
Oh god. Too good sir. You were right in saying that a person needs to develop taste to enjoy local delicacies and who better than you can say that. The promo for upcoming video was exciting. Keep the good work going.
So nice and big great thumbs up really too great videos 👍👍🙏🙏
Amazing watching all your series since last few days and totally enjoying it. Thanks 🙏
Sir, I am big fan of yours. Your simplicity and patience(kind of pause) is key ingredient. I dont find this with new kids doing all over the internet except ronnie and barty blog.
Bahut aacha lga spiece farm dekhakar very good sir
Hello Harish Ji ! Namaskaar !
Too good coverage of the Spice Garden...and no words for the scenic lush green landscapes of Kerala...I am sure you must have developed a thing for the Kerala Parota, very soft & interesting to eat...One thing I was thinking of telling you that if ever you would be planning to visit Odisha, then in stead of March make it within February...as you would be feeling heat a bit... especially while covering coastal parts like Puri, Konark, Bhubaneshwar the climate would be a little humid...And also by March the migratory birds viewing at famous Chilika Lake won't be enjoying bacause with the advent of summer the birds would be home bound... Nevertheless come to Odisha, a hidden treasure;not exlploited in touristic point of view as compared to other famous destinations...👍👍👍
i wanted to plan Odisha for March 1st week period... same thing was told by someone else as well..... i was also suggested to plan around Nov to feb period.....
thanks for this info.......
I was eagerly waiting for this video from morning:)
As usual outstanding,sabse achi bat yeh hai sir ki aap food k sath sath locations aur wahaki baki cheese bhi explore and explain karte ho! Munnar tea factory wala episode b muje bahot achcha laga before that we even dnt knw whats mean by CTC tea!!!!great going!!!!
