For many,
especially to those from abroad, Kerala is a place to enjoy nature
and its many vistas. But for Mr. J. P. Cone it is the history and
culture of Kerala that attracted him the most. Mr. Cone works for
Celebrity Tours, which operates from New York and South Africa. The
company is into developing suitable sporting holidays from around the
world with the participation of famous personalities, especially from
the field of sports and films.
Even though a first timer to
Kerala, Mr. Cone found the people out here to be extremely friendly
and felt it quite easy to meet and make contacts with them. With his focus on evolving sporting tours for his clients
back in America, Mr. Cone is on the look out for a suitable tour
package from Kerala that has scope for golfing, fishing, houseboats
and a little bit of historical as well as cultural entities.
Mr. Cone while in Kochi was most impressed by the
old charm of Kochi and the facets of history tagged to it, especially
the Jewish Synagogue, the Chinese fishing nets etc. According to Mr.
Cone the sporting holiday teams are often led by famous American
athletes, and out here in India, his company is in touch with some of
the cricket stars and also popular film personalities in Bollywood to
promote various sporting tour packages in the near future.
About his plans to make Kerala more known to his
clients back home in USA, a special section would be developed for
Kerala in the new website of his company and would also bring out
brochures specifically for the purpose.
To Mr. Cone, the most ascinating thing about Kerala was the harmonious co-existence of so
many people from different cultural and religious backgrounds, which
he believes adds a new dimension to the immense natural beauty of
Kerala. Even though he found it difficult to name some of the Kerala
dishes that he tried during his brief stay, nevertheless he enjoyed
all of them very much. He was also particularly impressed by few
hotels located in Kochi, which he feels are ideal ones for the kind
of clients he deals with.
