We arrived in Kerala, a beautiful state in the very south of India. The first stop on our route were the backwaters of Kerala. The backwaters are a huge net of rivers, canals and lakes that are all connected and just waiting to be explored.
The main hub for backwater tours is a town called Alappuzha. From here you can either take a houseboat for an overnight tour or explore the backwaters by canoe. Some small tour boats offer one-day tours. We chose to take a houseboat and did not regret it. See the full post and the video of our adventure below.
