Leisurely houseboat cruises

Spend the day drifting languidly through lagoons before falling asleep on your very own houseboat

No trip to Kerala is complete without a leisurely cruise on the lush green backwaters – a flooded labyrinth of lakes, lagoons, canals, inlets and rivers. Life slows right down as you sit back and watch village life go by slowly on the banks. Children head to school in canoes, fishermen catch supper in the shallows whilst kingfishers and eagles fly overhead. Spend the night on a houseboat with your own chef to really experience the atmosphere of this unique spot, which becomes even more magical at dawn and dusk.

Our Difference

The Far & Wild Community...

We think that the best people to talk about an experience are those directly linked to it. Our website and brochures let the ‘real experts’ show their stuff… local experts, travellers & industry insiders. Look out for the coloured markers all around the site... they mean that you are reading something contributed directly by a person from one of these different parts of the community we are part of.

The best memories aren’t simply places and hotels, they are made up of experiences and people… so we connect with local communities, and strive for sustainable travel to make your holiday special
