4-Day Alleppey Backwaters & Kovalam Beaches Tour
Cruise through Kerala’s backwaters in Alleppey before unwinding along Kovalam’s crescent-shaped coastline. Your private cab journey begins with a morning visit to the historic Ambalapuzha Temple, known for its traditional Kerala architecture and sweet rice pudding offering. Afternoon brings you to your houseboat for a serene glide past palm-fringed canals and village life. The next morning, your driver takes you south to Kovalam, where three days unfold at your pace. Spend mornings exploring Lighthouse Beach’s rocky promontory, afternoons on the quieter Hawah Beach, and evenings watching fishermen haul their catches at Samudra Beach. Your air-conditioned vehicle remains ready for spontaneous detours or lazy beach days. This trip suits travellers who want both backwater tranquillity and coastal relaxation without rushing between destinations.
