These houseboat cruises attract wide variety of people from different countries every year. Houseboats are actually the modern version of the ‘old Kettuvellams’ used in ancient times to transport rice, spices, gold and many more from Kuttanad to Kochi port. Presently, it is used for leisure trips and tourist purposes. Kettuvellams of old times had an infrastructure that adapted a kitchen as a part of the ‘vellam’ (boat) to cook and serve meals for the people travelling. As modern technology advanced, Vellams are now converted to Houseboats that are huge in infrastructure, attractive, comfortable and can accommodate people for leisure trips. This is specially designed for people to not miss out on the beauty of the backwater rides as well as the history of ‘Kettuvellams’, now popularly known as Houseboats. Houseboats are now a pretty familiar service across backwaters of Kerala. Alappuzha alone has a total of 1300 houseboats for service and tourist needs.
