'Pondicherry is well known for its boat houses in the backwaters, but the most well-known one is undoubtedly the Chunnambar Boat House. The comfortable houseboat takes you through the backwaters, passing by paddy fields, mangroves, traditional fishing villages and lots of exciting marine life, like turtles, crabs, otters, and water birds such as kingfishers and terns. The houseboat is equipped with lifejackets and is known to be very safe. It is a scenic journey and a great photo op for tourists, so when planning your trip to Pondicherry, make sure to add the Chunnambar Boat House to your itinerary.'
