Overview

Experience the backwaters of Kerala without having to commit to an overnight cruise with this day tour on a traditional houseboat, which includes lunch. You'll sail through quiet marshlands and past beautiful villages as you take in the scenery before switching to a smaller boat to sail through the canal of Kuttamangalam, which is too narrow for larger houseboats to navigate.
