Kumarakom Backwaters In Kumarakom

The beauty of the Kumarakom Backwaters lies in its tranquility. A sense of peace prevails as you glide across the calm canals, past the small fishing villages and further towards the edge of the sea. When in Kerala, tourists make sure that they spend at least a night or a few hours at the backwaters, if not on an overnight cruise then at least on a small boat tour. The houseboats are pretty well stocked and furnished, and offer all the modern amenities that a hotel does, so a stay here is sure quite comforting.

When hiring a Kumarakom backwater cruise, it is a good idea to spend some time exploring the nearby villages to get a sneak peek into the local lifestyle. <readmore>You can indulge in the local delicacies and also visit the little markets to shop for a few handmade souvenirs. A sightseeing tour of the Kumarakom Backwaters will surely make your holiday is Kerala more memorable!

    Vishal's 4 days trip to Kumarakom

    I had a wonderful experience exploring Kerala with Wondersky Travels. The trip was well-planned, and everything—from transport to hotels—was smooth and hassle-free. We loved the houseboat in Alleppey, the scenic beauty of Munnar, and the cultural charm of Kochi. Our driver was friendly and helpful,
    and the team stayed in touch throughout. Highly recommend Wondersky Travels for a relaxing and memorable Kerala trip!
