Exploring the Enchanting Backwaters of Alleppey

The backwaters of Alleppey offer an unparalleled experience of tranquility and natural beauty. As you cruise through the intricate network of canals, lagoons, and lakes, you'll witness rural Kerala life unfold before your eyes.

Traditional houseboats, known as kettuvallams, have been converted from rice barges into luxurious floating accommodations. These vessels come equipped with modern amenities while retaining their traditional charm.

The best time to visit is between November and February when the weather is pleasant. Don't miss the Nehru Trophy Boat Race if you're visiting in August!
