We were a family of 14 people and we went for a boat ride today on the backwaters in Nileshwar. The boat was arranged by Mr Devdas. We had a wonderful time, watching the beautiful backdrop of coconut tree lined shores of backwater, beautiful sunset while enjoying music, hot pakodas and nice black tea. Boat was very clean, the staff on boat were very polite. The cost too was very reasonable and it was a memorable evening.
