Took a 5-6 hour day tour with Srees tours in Nov 2018 and it was one of the highlights of our holidays in Kerala. I communicated with Sree online to organise bookings and he was always punctual and to-the-point in his responses. Took a single bedroom deluxe house boat for 4 people including my 84 year old father and it was spacious, clean and well maintained. The only sour point was the steep stairs to the upper deck - a minor inconvenience really. The food prepared on board will better what is being served in many of the hatted restaurants - it had variety, freshness and mind-boggling taste. The evening snacks of pineapple and banana fritters alongwith coffee/tea left us stuffed with absolutely no room for dinner! The trip itself was eventful...we lazed along the canals, the lake, beside a bird sanctuary and passed a number of houseboats along the way. The pilot of the boat was kind enough to allow me and my daughter to take the steering wheel, albeit for a few seconds (sufficient for a few photographs). Met the owner Sree at the start of the trip and he came across as a down to earth and friendly chap willing to please his customers. Will highly recommend Sree for all your houseboat needs- day tours or overnighters. Will be definitely back.
