Recommended Itinerary (This is an indicative itinerary, Sequence of the activities may vary and depend on prevailing weather condition and guest preferences)

  • Day 1: Arrive at Kochi in the morning flight and travel to Alleppey (75 kms - 2 hours) and Check into a Houseboat (Preferably around 12 noon). Cruise for the rest of the day till evening. Overnight and all meals in the houseboat. If meal preferences are conveyed in advance, meals could be prepared as per guest preferences.

  • Day 2 : Travel deeper in the backwater canals and Cruise all throughout the day with some stopovers at the local market, tender coconut shop, temple, church etc. Idea is to just sit back and see the backwater villages and other houseboats go by.

Accommodation Option - Houseboat - Lakshadweep


Seasonality - Mid-Oct - April is the best time to visit Lakshadweep. This is when the dive centres are operations and its possible to take a boat ride around (as sea is calmer). Mid-May onwards all transfers are done via Helicopter as the sea gets rough. Mid-May to Sept is the rough sea and monsoon time and so this is when islands are visited if idea is to do nothing. Kerala otherwise is a all-year round destination with Oct-March being the best months.

Access : Cochin is the only Airport from where one gets a flight to go to Agatti (Lakshadweep).
