Following successful tours to China and Cuba, Jon Baines Tours has worked together with the AOP to create an exciting new optometry tour to South India.
Travel from the Indian Ocean to the Garden City of Bangalore and on to gracious Mysore, home of sandalwood, silk and spices. Journey up into the hill station at Ooty and down again into the lush lands of beautiful Kerala. Visit an optometry school, clinics and hospitals, a rural community screening project, a lens manufacturer and an Ayurvedic Eye Clinic. Take high tea in an old Maharajah's palace in Mysore; sip sundowners on the stunning Coromandel Coast; cruise on a rice barge through the tranquil backwaters of Kerala; and take a spectacular toy train journey through the mountains.
After the tour, there is the opportunity to relax in the lush tropical setting of the Turtle Beach Resort in Kerala for 3 nights. Please click here for full details on the tour or email Jon Baines Tours at info@jonbainestours.co.uk or call 020 7223 6518.
