House Boats have all the creature comforts of a good hotel but none of those hassles: well-furnished bedrooms, modern hygienic toilets, cosy living rooms, beautiful kitchen and in some cases even a balcony for angling.

And, nothing like it, if it rains while you are cozy inside the luxurious House Boat. It will be the most charming moment of your life. You could watch millions of drops of water splashing and pounding on the rhythm of the falling rain like you never had in all your life.
