During their stay, the officials will visit Kumarakom, a famous tourist destination in Kottayam district, and take a ride on houseboats. They will also have a first hand experience with ayurveda.
Katie Randall, who represents Kuoni, told IANS that she was 'amazed' by the beauty of Kerala.
'This is a place the honeymoon couples from the UK would like. We see lot of business potential here for our clients in the UK and I am really excited,' said Randall.
Kelpesh Patel of Ethihad Airways said they were confident that this visit would bring in instant results.
