House Boat Cruising in Kerala, India

House Boat Cruise by Kumar Murukan


Travel Wish List - Kerala, India

Today in Kerala, a leopard was chasing a dog and fell into a well. They managed to get him out and that lucky dog got away. Kerala, known as "God's own Country", is in southwestern India. To the west is the Arabian Sea and the Mountains of the Western Ghats are spread towards the east. Many consider it the most beautiful state in India. Palm tree lined beaches, lush greeney, wildlife, and waterfalls. All within two hours of each other. Its emerald backwaters provide a soothing background for their houseboat cruises. The House Boats Kerala offers 22 hour cruises with Navigator, Cook and Staff. You can see exactly what the inside of one of these look like on their website. It may seem remote, but Kerala has become popular among niche and eco-tourists. Kerala Backwater Tours is a wonderful resource for exploring the different types of cruises and all this exotic place has to offer. Cruising to the market town of Alappuzha is a must! If you're a history buff, Kochi is the place to go. The Jewish Synagogue and old European church are still there. Kerala is 100 percent literate and the cleanest state in India.
