About this sailing

A multi-night houseboat cruise through Kerala's backwaters, further and slower than a single-day outing, moving between Alleppey's canals and the wider Vembanad Lake over two or three nights.

This is the extended cruise-style version of a Kerala houseboat stay; a shorter sunset cruise is listed separately under Activities, and a single overnight stay under Hotels.

What to expect

  1. Boarding

    Board your houseboat at an Alleppey jetty and set off into the canals.

  2. Cruising the backwaters

    Cruise through narrow canals and open lagoons, mooring for meals and the night.

  3. Onward or return

    Continue toward Kumarakom or return to Alleppey, depending on your route.
