Why Alleppey Kayaking Club Safe for Beginners, Non-Swimmers, and Families Every - Step of the Way!
Never been in a kayak before? Not a confident swimmer? Travelling with kids or older parents?
That’s exactly who we welcome every single day.
At Alleppey Kayaking Club, safety isn’t just a checklist — it’s the heart of everything we do. Every tour is personally led by Rahul Raj, a certified guide trained in both Lifesaving Techniques and Basic Kayaking at the National Institute of Watersports, Goa.
We guide you with:
Calm, shallow backwater routes
Proper safety briefings before every paddle
High-quality life jackets for all guests
Friendly support, no matter your age or experience
Whether you’re 12 or 70, kayaking solo or with your whole family — you’ll be in safe hands, moving at a comfortable pace, with local guides who truly care.
Because a beautiful experience means nothing unless you feel safe enough to enjoy it.
I started Alleppey Kayaking Club with one goal: to help travelers like you explore the hidden beauty of our backwaters — the way we locals live it, not the way it’s packaged for tourists.

Our Mission: Backwater Tours with a Heartbeat

Our mission is to protect that soul of Alleppey
