Premium Houseboat

Kettuvallams or rice barges converted to houseboats are a unique feature of the Kerala Backwaters. These boats were originally used for transporting rice and other goods and are traditionally made of Anjli wood, bamboo and coir. The boats move slowly along the waterways, covering approximately 20 km per day. Meals are cooked and taken on board and traditional Kerala food is served. There are many operators offering houseboats these days and the quality varies hugely But the below House boats has won many awards, has an excellent reputation, a team of professional boatmen and a sizeable fleet of quality boats.

Your boat is always exclusive to you (ie the only other people on board will be the crew) and you can choose a boat with or without air-conditioning in the bedroom at night. There are also a few premium boats available with the option of air-conditioning during the day as well. The boats can cater for up to two, four, six or eight guests.

A cruise for one, two or more nights is often the highlight of a holiday to Kerala. It is very relaxing and a great way to watch the world go by – but you don’t have to spend all your time on board. There will be plenty of opportunities to disembark and visit places of interest along the way. We dont recommend longer backwater cruises circular itinerary But we do recommend maximum Two Overnight stay in an House Boat.
