I am interested in finding out the cost for Alappuzha houseboats. I am not able to find any rates for houseboats, and it is something which we would like to get for our stay. I don't know if there are different types of houseboats, so I would require details about the different kinds that are available along with the rates for one day. Any other information about the houseboats would be great to know such as the food served, and the facilities and services available.
