The scenery and wildlife were just wonderful; spotting eagles and kingfishers was just amazing. Visiting the home of a local family was a privilege, they showed us their livelihoods, took us canoeing, and hosted and entertained us. It was really special. Book this trip if you want to experience the ‘real’ backwaters of Kerela.”
