You will be enjoying a local trip to the village of Kumarakom, which won the national award for being the best Rural Responsible Tourism in India. Being most popular for its lovely weather, its coastal energetic vibes and its enriching freely flowing water canals, this place could be best explored rowing on a canopy or a wooden boat. The sight of water submerged paddy fields, the chirping birds, rays of setting sun, all combine together to picture a perfect scenario. Riding through narrow water canals and merry making paddy fields, you will get a glimpse of the local lifestyle. Sit and relax in-between for a fresh dose of coconut water. You would have a new experience of eating fresh tender coconut. Learn how toddy is prepared through tapping of the coconut tree. A man will show you how coconut tree is climbed.
Later on, you will come to a house where lady of the home will demonstrate the skills of weaving leaves of coconut tree. Then, come to another place where you will be able to learn the fine weaving skills required for making a beautiful coir. Coir is made from the husk and fibres derived from the dry coconut parts. Later on, come to the beach sight where you will find a new way to catch fish through the use of bow and arrow from a local fisherman. You will be then taken on a tuk tuk to the local vegetarian restaurant named Kudumbashree where local delicacies await you.
