Kerala Houseboats and Houseboat Trips in Traditional Kettavullam


The Kerala houseboat cruise has become an integral part of visitors experience of Kerala and the ideal way to experience the calm and majesty of the Kerala Backwaters - that stretch of land and water to the south of Cochin and inland of Alappuzha and Kollam.

The houseboats were the traditional method for moving around the backwaters in the past (see a potted Kerala houseboat history here) but have now been redesigned to provide visitors with a tranquil and very relaxed experience of Kuttanad village life.

For first time visitors we recommend a one night or two night houseboat cruise starting from the boat jetty at Alappuzha or Kumarakom which then travels through the rice paddies and small canals before returning the next morning.

Your cruise includes:
  • full accommodation
  • all meals (including vegetarian options)
  • petrol costs
  • AC where an AC boat has been included
Your cruise does not include:
  • costs of fish and shellfish (which you can buy with the crew at the local market)
  • costs of entry to anywhere
  • transport between boat jetties and other accommodation.
