The cruise begins at the Nehru Trophy Fishing Point, flowing slowly through a movie-like view to the Azhikkal Canal. You’ll be served the most delicious local breakfast here, including Puttu and Kadala Curry, and the mouth-watering Karimeen Pollichathu.

Along the way, you’ll be entertained by the cultural dances of Shinkari Melam, Panchavadyam, Kuthiyottam, and Velakali, whose movements are as mesmerizing as the sway of trees. With all-inclusive Kerala tour packages, you can make handmade souvenirs, like coir products, woven mats, and woven palm fronds. You can also purchase such items on the boat.

Gliding along the gentle waters, scattered with Chundan Vallam boats and the breathtaking Kuttanad landscape, is tempting. But what will tempt you most is the Kuttanadan feast, paired with the best toddy!

The cruise comes to an end as the sun sets at Pathiranamal Island, where you’ll be welcomed at the amphitheatre to enjoy an elaborate entertainment performance put on by the Indian People’s Theatre Association. The amphitheatre will be a marvellous creation of natural materials like bamboo, giving a nod to green tourism.
