Village Backwater Cruise in Country Boat and Village Industries.

Backwater Cruise in the Gondola ( Shikari Boat). They slowly slide down the waters propelled by motor/or punted using long bamboo poles. It is absolute silence around except for the calls of a myna or Koal bird. The boatsmen who will stop for a tender coconut water brought down by the coconut harvester or a toddy tapper demonstrate toddy tapping ( you can see him climbing the tree and tapping the sap that becomes Toddy after fermenting 12 hours in room temperature.)
After the back water cruise go to a village for watching women engaged in coir spinning and leaf weaving.
Later you will visit a cloth weaving centre if time allows where women weave cotton Saree on handlooms.
We will sit for lunch at a respectful family home/an elite vegetarian restaurent for savouring the "Sadya" the national food of Kerala.
After these experiences you will come back to Kochi for dropping back at your hotel.
