Tariff questions

Asked before booking

Rates, routes and the advance — answered straight. Anything else, just ask.

Ask on WhatsApp
Do rates change by season?

Yes. October to March is peak season and prices run higher, especially around holidays and long weekends. Monsoon months are the softest. Send your date for the exact rate.

Is the boat private or shared?

Your choice — both exist. Book the whole boat private, or take a bedroom on a shared cruise and split the experience with other guests at a lower price. Say which you'd like on WhatsApp.

How much advance confirms the booking?

A part-payment locks your boat and date; the balance is settled at boarding. The exact advance comes with your quote on WhatsApp.

What route does the cruise take?

Overnight cruises loop through Alleppey's canals, village waterways and Vembanad Lake, anchoring before dark. Day cruises cover the same waters in a shorter loop.
