It
is South India, treasure in Kerala. Hundreds of miles long stretch
of Backwater regime (North-South close by the Arabian Sea) is
aptly used for boating and over night stay in (a/c) boats. You
embrace the rural culture of this land growing tea, coffee, cardamom,
rubber, spices, rice etc through boating safari. A native serves
you delicacies (sea food too) and anchors at places you wish to
apply full stops. An indigenous recreation, such a journey takes
you to a new planet, for a night or two.
The cruises
and the overnight stays in the houseboats are the best way to
an unforgettable holiday. The waterbus ferry and the cruise boats
are the most relaxed. Your backwater holidays need not be meticulously
planned. Even the booking need not be made well in advance. The
entire maritime journey is a merry time experience in true sense.
The
green and graceful, palm fringed backwaters of Kerala are unique
in themselves. Known all over the world, the tour of Backwaters
in Kerala-India is considered equivalent to and even much refreshing
than the canals in Thailand, or the backwaters in Milan. The sparkling
and emerald green waters acquiring the hues of tall huge green
palms attract the tourists in quest of serenity and intangible
beauty.
