ROCS Guided Holidays Incredible India 2024

DAY 15 KUMARAKOM - ALLEPPEY

Following breakfast, you will go on a scenic drive to Alleppey for backwater Cruise (approx. 35 kms/1 hour drive). Take a cruise in a traditional rice barge through the canals and backwaters where you will see rural life that has remained unchanged for centuries. Rice barges, or ketolases (‘roped together’) as they are called in Malayalam, are built from jackfruit logs lashed firmly together with coconut fibre and are poled along the waterways by one or two men. Previously, these vessels were used for transporting rice, coconuts and other commodities to market. Enjoy a delecable lunch on board as you soak in the tranquil surroundings. Disembark from cruise and drive back to your hotel in Kumarakom.
