Kollam: What to see in the surroundings?
What our travelers think about their stay
Kollam is a city located at the southern end of the Kerala backwaters. Like Alleppey, it is the ideal place to come to if you want to spend a relaxing time on and by the water.

When organising your trip around the backwaters, make the competition that exists between boat owners work in your favour. Be careful however: too much negotiating can sometimes provoke the owner into providing you with a substandard service.
