Backwater cruise recommendations

Sthenno · Jan 13th, 2009, 13:37

We are in Goa at the moment, hoping to make a brief, perhaps three or four day visit to Kerala. We would like to treat ourselves to a backwaters cruise, preferably an overnight experience, but are a bit overwhelmed by the choice. We have had the southern area recommended to us, but other than that don't know much. Can anyone recommend a good point to take a cruise from, and give us an idea of how much we might expect to pay for an overnight cruise?
Thanks very much,
Suzi

Allepey - venice of east i think should be a good staring point.but be carefull there are hell a lot of cruise operators there.But most they operate for 4-5 hrs during day and anchor the boat in night.ask specifically for cruise during night.Have anice cruise.

Alleppey like santos said. That is where there most are. One night should be around 5000 RS

As far as I am aware houseboats are not permitted to move around at night.

Goo in post 3 is right,Allepey is the place and the amount is also correct for a A/C single bedroom for 2 persons.

Go to main Houseboat Jetty and look at the various boats & take
your time.
