Alleppey's 900km network of canals, lakes, and rivers is best experienced slowly, aboard a traditional Kettuvallam houseboat with your own crew and kitchen.
Most cruises run overnight, departing mid-afternoon and returning the next morning — plenty of time to watch fishermen cast nets, pass through coconut-lined villages, and catch a backwater sunset from your own private deck.
Pack light, breathable clothing, and don't skip the home-cooked Kerala meals served fresh on board — they're often the highlight of the whole trip.
