Frequently asked questions

Still have a question?

Call us and our Kochi team will help you plan.

What kinds of trips can I choose?

Choose from sea cruises, an hourly Backwater Cruise and speed-boat rides. Sea sailings have scheduled departures; you choose an available start time for the backwaters. Ask us about a speed-boat ride.

Where does a cruise begin?

Our cruises depart from Marine Drive, Kochi. Your confirmation gives you the exact boarding point and reporting time.

Can I book just a few seats?

Yes, several scheduled cruises and the hourly backwater trip offer individual seats. For a private outing, ask us about reserving the whole vessel.

Are children and infants included in a booking?

Add everyone in your group when booking. Children pay the fare shown for their trip. Infants travel free but count as guests for safety. Ask us about children's suitability for a speed-boat ride.

Will food be served?

Choose a cruise with breakfast, lunch, dinner or snacks if you would like food aboard. We can help with the menu and dietary questions for your chosen trip.

What if weather changes our plans?

Weather, tides and maritime instructions can change a route, time or boarding point. If we cancel, our policy explains rescheduling and refunds; we may also operate on an approved alternative route.
