Go for shikara.. many reasons.. its 3-4 hours ride and you can pay as per time spent on the shikara.. moroever the houseboat ride is also from 2 or 3 pm till sunset .. max 5:30 you ll reach your docking point and morning out at 10 am.. then again you ll have to wait for check in as the next hotel wont allow you to walkin till 2 pm checkin time.. mosquito problem is too bad due to dirty water in the lake.. But ya, if you want to experience a different kind of stay and ready to shell out 8000-15000 for normal deluxe houseboat in off season then go ahead... AC houseboat Ac will be switched on only when boat is docked and till morning.. hope that helps.. for us it was a no brainer and we went for shikara day ride.... If you are a group then go for 2-3 bedroom Super deluxe, luxury houseboat.. the cost can be shared amongst all and then the experience would cost less than a hotel+shikara..
we paid 1300 for the boat. even if there were 4 it would have been same or 200-300 more depending on the person. As of now the prices are way up. almost double i guess as pr our recent subscriber interaction. If you want cheaper then you can do it as a part of the group. Check on official booking counter for these shikaras . or book the full boat whether 2, 4 people or 6- price should be for the boat. Hope that helps.
Well thats quite a surprise... if thats the case.. you can go to the office where you can get any shikara boat for the official price.. prices vary according to season but this is way too much... they quote around 1600-2000 for 4 hours or so but you can negotiate easily around 1300-1600 depending on condition of boat etc.. or just go to the local boat operators office , pay the official price and they ll assign you a boat with driver with stipulated time period.. hope that helps
Search for Finishing point in Allepey, contact Kerala Houseboat tourism government office and book your houseboat or shikara ride. prices are fixed.. Try booking before 11 am-12 noon... You can kunch around that area as lots of eating joints are available with roadside parking for car at certain sections or park outside the supermarket near to the finishing point..Booking with government you ll have to pay taxes, local vendors or boat owners outside the office or nearby can offer a little discount ...
