About
Kerala's backwaters offer a remarkable journey through a network of serene canals, lush lagoons, and traditional houseboat experiences. In Alappuzha, often referred to as the "Venice of the East," visitors can explore a labyrinth of waterways lined with palm trees and vibrant villages. Cruising on a kettuvallam, or traditional houseboat, offers an intimate view of life along these waters, from fishermen casting their nets to locals commuting between small islands.
