The serene beautiful backwaters of Alappuzha. Kerala and the floating Houseboats.

There can be nothing more idyllic that to spend a lazy day in the houseboat getting treated to beautiful sights and gorging on some fresh catch.

Only one word ! - experience it !
you will want yourself to chase sunsets and sunrise all your life.

Just cruising down the backwaters of Kerala on a private houseboat. Never in my life will I ever get over that day. Absolutely spectacular. I highly recommend the experience.
