Day - 7
Kumarakom –Alappuzha
Check into the houseboat at 12 noon for 1 Night / 2 Days riding in the
backwaters & small canals.
A glide in a houseboat through the enchanting backwaters is sure to rob
your heart. Palm fringed narrow canals winding through the vast expense of
panoramic sight one can never forgetting less than 15 minutes, the low hum
of the motor and the dazzling afternoon light have tuned out the noises in
your head, the deadlines, the telephone, the unfinished chapters. Watch
the white tread-tread clouds turn into wisps of animal fur and then
disappear. The isolation on a luxury houseboat is total.
Day – 8
Alappuzha – Kovalam

proceed to Kovalam.Travel by road to Kovalam through green coastal belt
and cashew plantations. Despite the fact that virtually the entire 550 Km
length of the Kerala coast is lined with sandy beaches, rocky promontories
and coconut palms,Kovalam is one of the only place where swimming in the
sea is not considered eccentric by locals. Check into the hotel.
Day – 9
