After all what can beat the thrill of staying overnight on a houseboat that bobs up and down on the backwaters of the Arabian Sea? Gliding past silently alongside the small fishing villages that have made the backwaters their source of livelihood will give you a sense of peace and tranquility. You can also stay at a homestay in one of the villages, in order to get a feel of the local way of life. It is a tremendous opportunity to bond with the locals.

Apart the houseboats on the palm-fringed backwaters, there is also a chance to enjoy a kayaking expedition on the canals. You can either hire a kayak to row it yourself, or you can hire a canoe and an oarsman to row you into the intricate canals that run across the villages and the paddy fields.

Among the many Alleppey things to do, watching the snake boat races is a must do.

    Naresh's 4 days trip to Alleppey

    I am highly disappointed with your travel agency. We had planned for a trip to Wayanad. We had a clear discussion about the package details and everything was fixed before the trip. All the charges about the package were decided and the itinerary was planned accordingly before we started our trip. A
    ll of the sudden on the third day of our trip, they showed their real faces and the driver demanded for additional charges of Rs.3500 saying that he was booked only for 350 KM ride. This was no where mentioned in the package and also none of the tour agency member informed us earlier regarding this. This is completely unfair. It’s a big cheating from the travel agency. The agency along with driver forced us to pay additional charges which was not stated in the package nor did they mention this earlier. The driver stopped the vehicle in between the trip and forced us to pay additional charges. It was a big trap for us because we were helpless and were forced to pay the extra charges as we were in the middle of the trip and couldn’t do anything rather than listening to them. I am going to take this issue forward and going to file a case against your agency by filing a complaint with the Ministry of Tourism through the Centralized Public Grievance Redress and Monitoring Systems (CPGRAMS) portal. Also I would never ever recommend any of my family friends to book trips from your agency Worst experience ever

    We booked the honeymoon package as a couple and had a fantastic experience throughout the trip. The cab driver was friendly and talkative, the local food was delightful, and we enjoyed all the sightseeing as planned in our shared itinerary within the given timeframe. Thank you, Trip Seller, for the
    excellent arrangements!

Pros: -Food taste was very good in house boat. Rest full
    trip was well planned and the Hotels in Kochi, Munnar & Thekkady was good. -Driver and cab was in Full condition and very well mannered

    Hotels and trip was very good, i dont prefer the hotel S' Cliff in varkala as its services are not so good as well as the room in which i stayed. Suuny from Namaskaram travels guided and supported me a lot.

    Dr's 6 days trip to Alleppey

    Positive first. Good Cab driver.Bad Cab. Hotels in Munnar, Kovalam good, kochin and Alleppey so so.. Could be improved in guiding hotels with facilities rather than cost and location. Just has a feeling I might have gone with 5 star package... All the Trip is Great memory

    **Kerala Trip Review** I recently visited Kerala and had a wonderful experience. Vivek ji, our driver provided for the trip was exceptionally reliable, punctual, and knowledgeable about the local routes and attractions, which made traveling stress-free and enjoyable. The accommodation was decent,
    offering clean and comfortable rooms, which added to the overall convenience of the trip. I would highly recommend this destination for anyone looking for a relaxing and scenic getaway. Overall, a memorable and smooth experience!
