For couples, Houseboats in Alleppey prices depend upon the category of the boat that you choose, the date, the number of people and a lot more factors.

For overnight stay with a full day cruise, the rate starts from 9000 INR, for a single bedroom for a couple.

For just the day cruise, it’ll be slightly lower.
