Kerala
offers
a unique mini - canvas to the traveller; the backwaters, which
consist of a complex network of lagoons, lakes & canals. Life
on the backwaters is entirely different; water being the key to
everything. There are no roads here, only waterways. On the banks
one can see lush green rice fields spreading away into the distance
and coconut groves with the occasional temple or church.
These canals or waterways, vary in dimension from being wide enough to be dubbed lakes, rich with marine bounty. To being nothing but snaking silvers of freshwater. And are mainly concentrated around the townships of allepey, kumarakom, kottayam, quilon and Cochin.
The backwaters are best experienced while slowly punting down the labyrinth of canals in a traditional thatch-roofed houseboat, known as 'kettuvallam'. An experience you will savour for a long time.
The
houseboats are renovated cargo boats… kettuvallams… and
are provided with all modern conveniences and comforts to make
your stay a pleasant experience. To complement the traditional
way of rowing using large poles, outboard engines are also provided.
The boats are designed to facilitate a most eco-friendly functioning.
A wide selection of beautiful routes are available for the cruises and you can choose one that suits your budget and time frame. Each route is comprehensive, serene and enjoyable in itself, extending to you a complete experience of kuttand.. The unique waterland of Kerala.
