Kerala and its backwaters

Kerala has its own charm. It has the unique geographical features that have made it one of the most sought - after tourist destinations in Asia.

Kerala's long stretch of backwaters offer the visitors, traditional cruises with night stay on houseboats providing chance to witness the village life all through.

The backwaters are a network of interconnected canals, rivers, lakes and inlets, a labyrinthine system formed by more than 900 km of waterways, and sometimes compared to the American Bayou. The backwaters have a unique ecosystem - freshwater from the rivers meet the seawater from the Arabian Sea. The kettuvallams (Kerala houseboats) in the backwaters are one of the prominent tourist attractions in Kerala.

So, if you have been longing for a relaxed holiday, where you and nature become one, Kerala’s backwater cruising would be most ideal. Do feel free to contact us anytime in order to enjoy our special backwater tourism packages.
