About This Tour
Sailing through the palm-fringed backwaters on a houseboat is a must-do activity in Kerala, and this half-day tour is ideal for travelers who don't want to spend a night on a boat. Relax on board your renovated rice barge as you watch the countryside of Kerala slide past. Enjoy the sun or retreat to the shade, and indulge in some delicious local food for lunch, served on a banana leaf. We also have other options like 3-hour backwater tour as well as an Overnight Stay in the Houseboat.
