A wellness, nature, and houseboat escape in lush Kerala.
Glide through emerald waters flanked by swaying coconut palms, as time slows to the rhythm of the ripples. The backwaters of Kerala, a unique network of lagoons, lakes, and canals, offer a slice of paradise that’s both serene and soul-stirring.
Whether you’re aboard a traditional kettuvallam (houseboat) cruising through Alleppey or kayaking through the quieter canals of Kumarakom, every moment is infused with peace and natural beauty.
From watching fishermen cast their nets at dawn to savoring fresh-cooked Kerala cuisine on a floating boat, Kerala Backwater Bliss is not just a tripβit’s a deep immersion into a slower, richer way of life.
