Writer's picture: DD GoswamiDD Goswami



Kerala's backwaters, a network of interconnected canals, lagoons, and rivers, offer a serene and picturesque escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Cruising along these tranquil waterways on a traditional houseboat, known as a "kettuvallam," is an iconic Kerala experience that allows you to immerse yourself in the region's natural beauty and laid-back lifestyle.  As you glide through the backwaters, you'll witness a tapestry of lush greenery, coconut groves, quaint villages, and vibrant birdlife.

Exploring the backwaters is a journey into the heart of Kerala's unique ecosystem. Observe local fishermen casting their nets, villagers going about their daily routines, and children playing along the banks.  Indulge in delicious Keralan cuisine prepared on board your houseboat, using fresh, local ingredients.  Visit local markets and spice plantations to learn about the region's rich agricultural heritage.  The backwaters offer a tranquil and rejuvenating experience, allowing you to connect with nature and embrace the slower pace of life.
