End of the tour.Hotel or Houseboat: Choose Your Backwater Stay
The published Alleppey itineraries use a hotel stay as the base option. Request an overnight houseboat instead for a personalised alternative. Accommodation type, private or shared arrangements, meals, cruise hours, mooring periods and air-conditioning hours will be stated in your quotation. A houseboat does not cruise continuously throughout the night.
For transfers from Munnar or Thekkady, departure timing will be planned around houseboat check-in. If your schedule cannot accommodate the cruise, a hotel with a separately quoted boat excursion may be more suitable.
