Riverine Cruises is a part of the Kadavil Group, a diversified business group with over 25 years of experience across manufacturing, logistics, retail, trading, and hospitality. Riverine Cruises invites you to explore the timeless beauty of Alleppey’s backwaters aboard one of four luxury houseboats. Each boat is carefully maintained, offering a clean, comfortable, and peaceful stay.
Kerala’s backwaters stretch over 1,500 kilometres, weaving through rivers, lakes, and canals. Alleppey is at the heart of this network, where the water runs level with the land, and even below sea level in some places, offering an up-close view of everyday life in the villages. As your houseboat glides through the calm waters, you’ll pass lush green paddy fields, coconut groves, and small hamlets that reflect the region’s simple charm.
At Riverine Cruises, we operate some of the finest luxury houseboats in Kerala, delivering a unique and unforgettable backwater experience. Each houseboat is crafted for comfort and elegance, featuring modern amenities and thoughtful design. We welcome travellers from around the world, offering warm hospitality and an authentic glimpse into the natural beauty of Kerala’s backwaters.
