Kerala Backwaters
God's Own Country — cruise through serene waterways lined with palm trees and village life.
About Kerala Backwaters
Kerala's backwaters are a network of interconnected canals, rivers, and lakes stretching over 900 km along the Malabar Coast. A houseboat cruise through Alleppey (Alappuzha) is one of India's most iconic experiences — drifting past emerald paddy fields, coconut groves, and local villages. Beyond the backwaters, Kerala offers Ayurvedic wellness retreats, the spice gardens of Munnar, wildlife sanctuaries at Periyar, and the colonial charm of Fort Kochi with its Chinese fishing nets.
