Authentic Kerala Backwater Cruise & Village Life Tour from Kochi

Discover the allure of Kerala’s backwaters with a serene Shikkara (country boat) cruise through canals lined with palm trees and peaceful lagoons. Drift smoothly across the water, powered by either a motor or bamboo poles, while enjoying the calming sounds of nature, including the calls of myna and koel birds. The amiable boatmen might stop for a refreshing tender coconut or demonstrate toddy tapping, illustrating how coconut sap is transformed into Kerala’s traditional palm wine.

Explore a Kerala village to observe women spinning coir, weaving palm leaves, and, if time allows, visit a handloom weaving center where cotton sarees are crafted on looms. Relish an authentic Kerala Sadya lunch served on a banana leaf at a local family home or a distinguished vegetarian restaurant.

Conclude this unforgettable Kerala backwater and village tour with a comfortable return to Kochi.
