A Wonderful Backwater Journey

We wholeheartedly recommend Varun, our wonderful shikara boat driver and guide in Alappuzha. Varun took us on a three-hour journey through the beautiful backwaters in his comfortable and charming boat. He planned the route perfectly, helping us discover local life, homes, canal activities, and racing boats in training. His knowledge and interesting stories enriched the journey. The trip ended with a beautiful sunset, making it truly unforgettable. Thank you, Varun, for your kindness and hospitality!
