These Kettuvalams have been adapted into luxuriously
furnished houseboats. A Kettuvallam usually has one or
two bath attached rooms, an open lounge, deck,
kitchenette and a crew comprising two oarsmen and a
cook. In the houseboats, traditional lanterns are used
for lighting. These houseboats make the backwaters tour
