If you are flying
What the road asks of you
A round trip here is billed by the day, not the kilometre
A return journey is charged for at least 300 km per day, because the car stays with you for the whole trip rather than picking up another fare. This route is 279 km each way, so 558 km of driving over 3 days is still billed as 900 km. On a short trip that floor is most of the fare, and two one-way journeys can work out cheaper — worth comparing both before you book.
Give the driver your houseboat jetty
Houseboats board from several jetties around Alappuzha, and town traffic between them is slow. Give the driver the exact jetty or the boat operator's location, not just "Alleppey". Kumarakom houseboats are across the lake, a different drive entirely.
This route crosses into Kerala
Leaving Tamil Nadu for Kerala means a state permit. Whether you pay it depends on the fare you pick: a toll-included fare has it inside, and nothing is collected at the border; the cheaper fare leaves it out, and it is handed over at the checkpost. The amount is set by Kerala, not by us, and the receipt is theirs.
What is there
The backwaters
The canal and lake network south and east of town, seen by houseboat or shikara.
Alappuzha Beach and pier
The beach and the old sea pier at the western edge of town.
Punnamada Lake
The lake where the snake boat race is rowed.
Marari Beach
The quieter fishing beach north of the town.
Worth knowing before you go
- Houseboats are usually booked as a night, boarding around midday — plan the drive to arrive before it.
- The snake boat race falls in the monsoon season; the town is very full around it.
