Amazing experience - the guide was very knowledgable. They went forward with the tour despite the fact we were the only ones in the group. 100% would recommend to anyone who wants to get a taste of the Kerala backwaters!

Great experience with an amazing host! Viakom was such an offbeat location to do the backwater trip, it was like we had the entire place to ourselves. The house boat was super comfortable and the canoe ride was peaceful. The best part was getting to learn the rope making using coconut husk and the thatched roof with the leaves. A truly local experience. Meera have us so much information and was an absolutely wonderful guide. She also was so sweet to surprise my partner with a birthday cake as we were celebrating. You must experience this tour with Wilson tours.

The tour was great. I really liked the backwaters and navigating through the narrow canals with boats. I also liked the vegetarian lunch that was provided. However, I was a little surprised by the length of the tour. In the description, it says it lasts from 8:30 to 4:30, but we were back in Cochin on 2:30. Description should be updated not to confuse travelers, in case they want to make other arrangements for the day.

Our backwater experience in Kerala was truly unforgettable and offered an authentic glimpse into the local culture and way of life. A special mention to our guide, Ms. Mira, whose warmth, knowledge, and excellent storytelling made the journey even more enriching. She ensured that we felt comfortable throughout and shared fascinating insights about the region. The village activities were a highlight of the trip. Watching Omna Amma demonstrate traditional rope-making and thatch-making was both educational and inspiring. Her skill, dedication, and passion for preserving these age-old crafts left a lasting impression on us. The boatmen were courteous, skilled, and ensured a smooth and enjoyable ride through the serene backwaters. Their hospitality added greatly to the overall experience. The traditional Kerala food served during the visit was delicious, fresh, and full of authentic flavors. It was a wonderful opportunity to savor the local cuisine. We would also like to appreciate our driver for his professionalism, punctuality, and safe driving. His friendly nature and willingness to assist made our travel comfortable and stress-free. A huge thanks to Wilson tours. Overall, this was a beautifully organized experience that combined nature, culture, tradition, and hospitality. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic Kerala backwater adventure. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We all loved this trip. Exploring narrow backwaters full of birdlife on a smaller boat with an wobderful guide. We stopped to view local craft activities- making rope from coconut fibre and weaving coconut fronts. Then onto a bigger boat to view villagelife watersnakes, and more birds. Very informative, but also very relaxing. Would highly recommend this tour!

It was a really unforgettable experience. Gowri is an amazing guide, I wish her all the best! Very well planned and organised by her and the team. Had two separate boat rides, one on a smaller open canoe (which I prefer) which led to smaller waterways, and a bigger houseboat down the main stream. Beautiful!! Not a single other boat in sight, way better than anything at alleppey, this really feels like a hidden gem
