This Is NOT Venice! Magical Allepey | 🇮🇳 Inside India's Most Beautiful Backwaters

Welcome to Day 4 (Part 1) of our Goa to Kerala road trip! Today, we leave the city behind and head to the world-famous backwaters of Alappuzha (Alleppey).
They call it the "Venice of the East," but honestly, it has a vibe that is uniquely Indian and absolutely magical. ✨ We rented a Shikara for a private tour through the narrow canals, offering a view you simply can't get from the big houseboats.
Watch us enjoy a peaceful ride through nature, followed by a truly authentic Kerala Sadhya (traditional meal) served on a banana leaf 🍃, and finally, a relaxing stop at Alappuzha Beach.

📍 Day 4 (Part 1) Highlights:
The Drive: Heading to Alleppey (Alappuzha) from Kochi.
