One of the top attractions in Kerala is to take a cruise along the backwaters of Kerala. You’ll be able to enjoy the tranquility and serenity during the cruise and observe the everyday life of the villagers along the river. In addition, there would be a stopover for fresh seafood. This time, we had some crabs and fresh river prawns which were prepared by our chef in the evening. Delish!

Kerala Attractions #2: Mattancherry Palace Museum Entrance
