CasaOrchid
Traditional Shikara Tours
Navigate the narrow, shallow arteries of the backwaters where standard houseboats cannot reach. Our sunrise and sunset Shikara tours offer a voyeuristic yet respectful glimpse into authentic village life. Witness the quiet rhythms of Alleppey—from toddy tapping to the intricate art of coir making—from the comfort of our hand-crafted wooden vessels.
Luxury Houseboat Cruises
Experience the quintessential Kerala stay on a private floating estate. CasaOrchid partners with elite operators to provide houseboats that mirror our heritage design philosophy. Enjoy an overnight journey through the Punnamada Lake, complete with personalized chef services serving traditional Appam and freshly caught backwater delicacies.
Kayaking Adventures
Explore at your own pace. Our self-guided kayaking experiences allow for silent exploration of the smallest canals, bringing you closer to the water's edge and the local flora.
Speedboat Rides
Feel the adrenaline of the Nehru Trophy route. This high-octane ride takes you through the Punnamada Finishing Point, where the legendary snake boat races occur every August.
Beach Sightseeing
A departure from the canals. Visit the historic Alleppey lighthouse and witness the iconic Arabian Sea sunset from the pristine white sands of Alleppey Beach.
