House boats of Kerala

Further inland when one goes into the interiors of this state there are more and endless miles of placid Kerala backwaters, flanked on either side by a towering palm tress. These meandering Kerala House Boat, Kerala Holidaysfreshwaters are all mainly concentrated around the townships of Alleppey, Kumarakom, Kottayam, Quilon and Cochin.

These waterways or better known as backwaters are best traveled in thatched roof houseboats called kettuvallam or in a sleek darting local snake boat.

House Boats With A Difference:
These houseboats of today are very huge which move slowly and stealthily across the clean blue water of the Arabian sea .The original Kettuvalloms were used to carry tonnes of rice and spices - a standard Kettuvallom can hold up to 30 tonnes - from Kuttanad to the Kochi port.

This was regarded as a mode of transport to do trade and commerce but now these are compared with the luxurious five star hotels in the city. The houseboats have all the comforts of a luxury hotel including furnished bedrooms, modern toilets, cozy living rooms, a kitchen and even a balcony for angling.
