Overview
Discover the world-famous backwaters of Kerala on this relaxing half-day excursion from the Cochin Cruise Terminal.
Escape the bustle of city life and immerse yourself in the peaceful rhythms of rural Kerala, where daily life unfolds along tranquil canals surrounded by lush tropical scenery.
Your journey begins with a scenic drive of approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes from the cruise terminal to a charming village just outside Cochin.
Here, you will board a traditional covered country boat, designed to accommodate around 20 guests, ensuring a comfortable and intimate experience.
As your local guide gently paddles through narrow backwater canals, enjoy views of rich vegetation, coconut palms, and village homes.
Along the way, stop at a local village to witness traditional coconut palm weaving and coir-making techniques, offering a glimpse into Kerala’s age-old craftsmanship.
After the boat ride, enjoy a vegetarian lunch or relax with tea or coffee and light snacks, before returning comfortably to the Cochin Cruise Terminal with lasting memories of Kerala’s serene backwaters and village life.
