What you can expect

  • Begin your private tour with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in Kochi or Ernakulam and enjoy a scenic 1.5-hour drive to the serene village of Kumarakom, famous for its tranquil backwaters.

    Start your experience with a visit to the Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary, a peaceful haven where you can spot migratory birds in their natural surroundings. After exploring the sanctuary, enjoy a delicious local lunch before boarding a traditional private Shikara boat for a leisurely cruise through the picturesque backwaters.

    Glide past lush paddy fields, coconut groves, and charming villages as you soak in the calm beauty of Kerala’s countryside. Continue your journey to Pathiramanal Island, a small, scenic island nestled in the Vembanad Lake — perfect for stunning photos and quiet moments amid nature.

    After a memorable day exploring Kumarakom’s highlights, relax on your drive back to Kochi, where you’ll be dropped off at your hotel.
