A trip to the backwaters of Alleppey for a luxury houseboat
A traditional Keralan houseboat is your next port of call. Enjoy stunning scenery and wildlife as the boat lazily makes its way through inland waterways and lagoons edged with coconut groves. Watch local life as people live and work by the water’s edge, a glimpse into a peaceful community and an existence which has altered little in over one hundred years. Enjoy meals on deck before retiring to a tastefully appointed bedroom, luxury bathroom, lounge area and fully equipped kitchen. The houseboat will berth late afternoon leaving you free to take a walk in local villages before you return to dine under the stars.
