Karma Kerala Homepage « Kerala Houseboats « Kerala Houseboats by Cabins « 2 Cabin Kerala Houseboats - Sleeps 4 « 3 Night Superior Kerala Houseboat Cruise from Alumkadavu to Alappuzha - 2 Bedroom

A suitable cruise for those who travel from Kovalam or Trivandrum.A relaxed way to cover the distance if you are proceeding to Cochin after the cruise.

The first item on a house boat cruise itinerary is the traditional buffet lunch, which will be served by our affable crew. The menu catering to both vegetarians and non- vegetarians will be dominated by fresh fish and seafood delicacies and will win hands down as any gourmet's delight. Seasoned with natural home grown spices of Kerala, each of these dishes, wraps up the essence of this tiny strip of land. The sprawling lounge with trendy and comfortable seating arrangements and the elevated sundeck form the vantage spots for you to preside over the natural milieu. The bathrooms are equipped with the latest fittings like hot water showers and WC.

In these waterways, there is an array of typical sights and sounds that you might not come across elsewhere. You will see Chinese nets dotting the waterways being operated and mussel pickers taking a dip in the shallow waters to come up with pails of mussel, a local delicacy. There are many tourist spots that fall in this circuit including the ancient champakulam church, Mata Amritanadamayi ashram and Chavara Bhavan, the homestead of the blessed Kuraiakose chavara among others. Take a closer look at the little island of Pathiramanal, well known for its migratory birds.

You can buy fresh catch straight from the nets or the go getters amongst you can take the lead and try your luck with the fishing rod. You can also cook the fresh catch the way you like the best. The chef will only be glad to do it or if you prefer to do it all by yourselves, just step into the well equipped kitchenette to satiate your cooking skills

The boat will make brief halts in between to give you a chance to saunter along the village roads, watch the life go by in these hamlets or live a villager's life for a day! You can also laze around in the uninhabited lagoons, browse through the village markets or chill out in the cool waters, swimming and soaking up fun. You will be provided with life jackets and life buoys, which will come handy for the landlubbers who are not very confident about their swimming skills.

You will be served a traditional Kerala dinner onboard the boat that will be anchored at the lakeside for the night. There are TV and music to while away time if you choose to stay awake for a bit long.

On the last day, the cruise starts at day break with a traditional or continental breakfast. As the cruise hits the last lap, you can get ready to disembark at the finishing point at around 9.30 in the morning to mark the end of a fun filled cruise experience.

Cruise not available from 01 December till 20 January.
