Rice boat cruise on the Backwaters
Whether you have recently arrived or are unwinding before returning home, a rice boat is the perfect way to relax.
Today’s rice boats are replicas built by traditional methods, and different sizes and standards of boats are available. The front is an uncovered deck, ideal for sunbathing, while the dining and seating areas are shaded by walls of woven palms.
Barges comprise anything from one to three bedrooms, providing flexible accommodation to suit families, couples or groups of friends.
All food is prepared and served by the crew. Some boats are air-conditioned and although all boats have en suite shower rooms, most are fairly basic with limited water pressure.
