Dos

If you opt to stay overnight on a Houseboat, please insist for a licensed Houseboat Operator
When visiting local communities, let your behaviour be guided by the people you meet there. Keralites are very hospitable and are friendly towards visitors, however respect their privacy
Make sure that you take permission before taking photographs of people and places
Consult the guide before taking photographs, as some religious sites and certain ceremonies are restricted from being photographed
It is worth trying to eat and drink outside your Houseboats, as this is one way to learn many things about the local cuisines, as well as helping the local people and the local economy gain some benefits directly from tourism
Remember, to remove headgear, footwear and cover your body reasonably well when visiting religious places. Locals generally wear white or sober colours. Conservative dress is the norm.

Don’ts

Don't consume alcohol in public as it is frowned upon.
Nudity in any form is frowned upon for both genders and the rule applies more especially to women.
