"Would highly recommend Why Not for anyone wanting to experience life on the waterways."

9.0

Lovely houseboat, the driver and the chef were lovely and we had some delicious traditional kerelan food. The waterways are beautiful.

We loved the boat, it would have been helpful to have received further information about what the trip involved prior to arriving as we hadn’t realised we would be on the the boat the entire time.

"Overall, it was a memorable and enjoyable experience that we would definitely recommend!"

10.0

We had a truly unique and relaxing experience staying one night on this private houseboat. Having the entire boat to ourselves made it feel very special and peaceful. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive throughout our stay. A special highlight was the chef, who prepared a variety of delicious local dishes for us. The freshly prepared fish was especially outstanding and a real treat. Spending the day and morning cruising through the backwaters was absolutely beautiful and very calming. The boat itself was well-designed, with comfortable lounge areas that made it easy to sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenery.

"Beautiful night in Alleppey"

10.0

Beautiful night stay on the Alleppey backwaters with amazing service and very tasty food. Me and my husband have tricky diets (no dairy, no gluten, no seafood) but they fed us very well !!!

There were a couple of upsells which we didn’t know about-like taking a boat along the smaller canals at night and going to shop where they probably get a kickback-not detrimental over all but be aware. Also-I was asked for money for the food in cash at the front which had never been communicated with me-neither the amount or that it needed to be in cash. So def ask so you have enough cash at the start!
