Perfect day highly recommend

Published on Dec, 2023

We were met by our guide for the day Ajith who was very well spoken with perfect English. He proceeded to provide history and facts along the journey to the boat. The boat was fantastic and the food was made fresh by a chef on the boat. We were traveling with a couple of chefs and they slowed them to observe during preparation giving tips for traditional Indian techniques. They allowed for a couple of stops that were not scheduled to grab some street food and a little shopping. In all a perfect day and one of the best guides we have ever had.

Enjoyable day

Really enjoyed our private houseboat tour around the back waters of Alleppey! Very well organised and a wonderful lunch served on board.

Great experience!

We loved the tour. It was super quiet and serene on the boat. The tour guide was very friendly and gave us right amount of information but also gave time for us to just relax and take in the nature. We also requested to get vegan food which they cooked for us and the food was delicious. Very happy with everything!

Peaceful and relaxing

Beautiful scenic trip with a great crew and delicious food! We had a lovely time and would recommend this tour.

Wonderful day in the backwaters!

Published on Apr, 2023

We chartered an entire houseboat for our day trip into the backwaters. The vessel had 2 bedrooms with baths and was air conditioned as it can be used for overnight stays. Came with captain, crew, chef and our guide. The boat was is great shape and was very comfortable. The trip through the canals was fascinating We watched everyday life along the shores. The guide was informative and the lunch was delicious. Would highly recommend this tour! The cost was the same as if we had booked it through our cruise ship but then we would have been part of a group of 10-15 people. Having the vessel to ourselves was just perfect.
