Travelling on the MV VAIKUNDAM, offering Traditional Elegance
The MV Vaikundam which in 2002 had the great honour of hosting the then Hon. Prime Minister of India Mr. Atal Bihari Vajpayee and whose presence on the Vembanad Lake at Kumarakom made the destination famous leading to contributing towards the launch of the Kerala Backwaters itself. Being the recipient of the National Tourism Award, Kerala Tourism Award, having been featured in the Dream Cruise program of Nat Geo People Channel and in the Master Chef Program of Channel Nine of Australia too, the MV Vaikundam is a wonderful experience as a boat built with teak and jackwood.
