What is truly magical about a houseboat cruise along the
backwaters is the breathtaking view of the pristine and otherwise inaccessible
aspects of rural Kerala that it offers. The houseboats provide all the creature
comforts of a good hotel including furnished bedrooms, modern toilets, cozy
living rooms, a kitchen and even a balcony for angling. Meals are supplemented
with fresh fish from the backwaters and cooked on board. You can also include
other backwater experiences on a longer houseboat stay like stopping off at a
wayside ‘Toddy’ shop to sample palm liquor most famous in Kerala, indulge in
fishing for backwater fish, go for canoe excursions of the narrower backwater
channels, visit coir making units or stop off to visit the many quaint churches
and temples along the backwaters.
