Types of Kochi Backwaters Packages
At Cochin Cruise City, we offer a range of backwater experiences tailored to different preferences. Whether you want a quick ride or a luxurious overnight stay, we’ve got you covered.
1. Houseboat Cruises (The Ultimate Experience)
Houseboats are the rockstars of Kerala tourism, and for good reason! These beautifully crafted boats come with all the comforts of a hotel—cozy bedrooms, an open deck, and even delicious Kerala-style meals cooked onboard.
- Half-Day Cruise: Perfect for those who are short on time but still want to soak in the beauty of the backwaters.
- Full-Day Cruise: A leisurely ride through the winding canals, with delicious local meals included.
- Overnight Stay: Sleep to the gentle sounds of water lapping against the boat. Wake up to the sight of mist rising from the water—a scene straight out of a postcard!
2. Shikara Rides (For a Short & Sweet Experience)
Shikaras are smaller, beautifully decorated boats that offer a more intimate experience. They glide smoothly through the narrow canals, allowing you to explore hidden corners of the backwaters that houseboats might miss.
- Ideal for couples looking for a romantic ride.
- A great option if you want a budget-friendly yet memorable experience.
3. Canoeing & Kayaking (For the Adventurous Souls)
If you love being close to nature, paddling through the backwaters in a canoe or kayak is an experience like no other. It’s peaceful, yet thrilling—you get to navigate through narrow canals, spot exotic birds, and feel truly connected with nature.
4. Village Tours & Cultural Experiences
Want to take your backwater experience to the next level? Pair your cruise with a village tour! Visit local homes, watch traditional crafts being made, and even try your hand at cooking an authentic Kerala meal.
What to Expect on Your Kochi Backwaters Cruise
1. Stunning Views & Unforgettable Scenery
The backwaters are a blend of lakes, canals, and lagoons, with lush greenery everywhere. You’ll see lotus-filled ponds, swaying palm trees, and vibrant birdlife. If you’re lucky, you might even spot an otter playing in the water!
2. Delicious Kerala Cuisine
No trip to Kerala is complete without its mouthwatering food. Onboard meals often include:
- Freshly caught fish, cooked with traditional spices
- Appam (soft, fluffy rice pancakes) with coconut stew
- Banana fritters (a crispy, sweet treat you’ll love!)
And of course, everything tastes better when enjoyed on a boat with a view!
3. Warm & Friendly Hospitality
Kerala is known as “God’s Own Country”, and its people truly make it feel that way. The boat crew and local villagers are incredibly warm, welcoming, and always ready to share a smile and a story.
