Day 13
Marari - Backwaters Cruise - Marari:

Breakfast will be at hotel.

Proceed to Alleppey (a twenty minutes drive) and board a traditional Kerala houseboat for a memorable overnight cruise through the famed backwaters of Kerala. Go on a leisurely backwater cruise along the lake on a thatched houseboat. The houseboat with all modern comforts lets you discover the countryside at your own pace.

Allappuzha (Alleppey) is famous for its boat races, houseboats, coir products, fish and lakes. Allappuzha remains prominent on the tourist trial of Kerala as one of the major centres for backwater boat trips. "Kuttanad" in Allappuzha is one of few places in the world where farming is done below sea level. Kuttanad is a land of lush paddy fields and is called the 'Rice Bowl' of Kerala. Kuttanad stretches for 75 Km sandwiched between the sea and the hills.

The backwaters of Kerala are a unique product of Kerala and are found nowhere else in the world. Backwaters are a network of lakes, canals and estuaries and deltas of forty-four rivers that drain into the Arabian Sea. The backwaters of Kerala are a self supporting Eco-system teeming with aquatic life. The canals connect the villages together and are still used for local transport. Over 900 km of this labyrinthine water world is navigable.

Cruise through the backwaters. Lunch will be served on the boat prepared by your private crew. Cruise again after lunch through the numerous canals and streams. Watch the village life on both sides and relax. Anchor in the evening in a place out of a "picture postcard" and you can take a walk through the village having coconuts while walking.
