    The Kayaking experience was great. It was a private tour with a dedicated guide. We toured the backwaters for around 3 hours with a 10 minute break in-between for tea and snacks at an island. We visited the pick up spot, from where we were taken on a ferry to the starting point which was a homestay. We prepared for the Kayaking and the guide gave us instructions. We were given a floating bag to keep mobile phones, and a mineral water bottle to keep hydrated during the tour. We explored 2 routes and then took a snack break and an island before we started our return journey. On the way, we interacted with the villagers across the islands. The overall tour took around 3 hours to complete. After the tour, we came back to the homestay to freshen up and then we were taken back to the original pick up spot on a ferry, from where we returned back to our stay.

    I only had 24 hrs in the backwaters and this was a perfect way to experience and get emerged in it. I absolutely loved paddling around the backwaters, observing and interacting with the locals, and taking in the beautiful scenery and seeing incredible birds. My guide was perfect - knowledgeable and friendly. I also really appreciated being able to flex the length of the tour based on my preferences. Another highlight was the incredible lunch cooked and served on route by some locals. It was one of the best meals I had in Kerala. I was glad to meet this tour operator and plan to do a 2 week tour of three southern states with my family.

    Wow, what a brilliant tour. The guides were excellent, very knowledgeable. We saw so many birds, village life and amazing scenery. We were given soft drinks and fresh fruit along the way, and had the most delicious local lunch, and were invited into the home of the restaurant owner and met his wife who had cooked the meal (in her spotlessly clean kitchen). It was very hot so we were given the option of taking a boat back instead of kayaking the last bit, which was lovely. We would definitely recommend this trip, but you need to be fit to go on the day tour, if not, they do a shorter one.
