Three of us had visited this place to spend just one evening. We reached at around 5 pm. It's a beautiful, quaint house, with a lovely garden all around dotted with blooming orchids. Martin had arranged everything for our short visit. Selvan, the pleasant caretaker, received us and promptly took us to the boat. Mathew, our softspoken boatman, efficiently weaved his way through the Chinese fishing nets and clumps of mangroves. His conversation was peppered with interesting tidbits that gave us a glimpse of life in Kumbalangi. We were back ashore in time to enjoy the sunset sitting in the backyard of the house, sipping hot tea and munching banana fritters prepared by Selvan. It was an evening well spent, away from the noises and bustle of the city!

Our trip to Kumbalanghi Village was the most memorable one. Martin made sure that everything was to perfection. We had our boatman, Matthew, take us on an hour long boat trip, explaining the activities and the ways of nature around us. As the boat moved quietly through the waters, we were able to see the variety of birds as they came to feed or just perch on the trees singing their song. This serene and the idyllic surrounding envelops you completely and transports you to perfect tranquility. Later, as we alighted from the boat, we had Selvan patiently waiting for us. He led us back to the resort and we were served hot tea and snacks as we watched the sun setting, draping the sky in a pink hue as it plunged into the waters. This is truly a time that will be etched in my memory forever.

William did a great job walking me through the various handicrafts and taking a boat ride. This was a very informative way to spend half a day and I enjoyed myself.

We found the village tour extremely interesting. Amazed at how much use they can obtain from the coconut tree. The best part of the trip was the boat ride around the brackish waters. The wildlife was amazing, from numerous birds to even a water snake. William was our guide for this excursion, and we found him kind and very informative. The lunch at the end of the excursion was also delicious. Would highly recommend. Just a short drive from our hotel near Fort Kochi.

We really enjoyed our day from the boat trip with George, seeing how all parts of the coconut are put to good use including rope making and a tasty lunch. Biju our guide was very knowledgeable

We spent a lovely couple of hours seeing what could be done with coconuts and having a relaxing boat ride. Unfortunately there were no crabs and no toddy... otherwise we'd give 5 stars

Tour laid on by our operator - India by Car and Driver - expected some awful touristy thing, but was actually a short boat ride (private) followed by a charming introduction to some of the local crafts, illustrating how every piece of the coconut is used for various purposes, - fish and crab farms, followed by delicious lunch by the river. About half an hour by car from Fort Kochi.

Hi, I think that the package with lunch (and cruise ?) is 2600 Roupies for 2 persons. The duration is 2 and half hours (without lunch).
