1. Houseboat Cruises on Kerala’s Backwaters

Step aboard our modern, well-appointed houseboats and glide through the tranquil waterways of Alleppey and Kumarakom. Each houseboat features spacious, air-conditioned cabins with stunning views of lush landscapes, ensuring a relaxing and luxurious stay. Our dedicated crew provides personalized service and local insights to enhance your journey. Enjoy freshly prepared Kerala cuisine in an elegant dining setting. We offer flexible packages including day cruises, overnight stays, and extended journeys, ideal for couples, families, or groups seeking a peaceful and immersive experience on the water

2. Curated Cultural and Nature Tours

Beyond the backwaters, we offer expertly crafted tours that showcase Kerala’s diverse heritage and natural beauty. Explore traditional villages, witness local crafts like coir-making, and visit spice plantations, ancient temples, wildlife sanctuaries, and scenic hill stations. Our itineraries include unique activities such as cooking classes, guided cycling tours, and Ayurvedic massages. These tours are tailored to your interests and schedule, whether you desire cultural depth or adventurous exploration

At Trip Companion, we believe that every journey is a home. As the American poet Muriel Rukeyser once said, “The journey is my home.” For us, this quote embodies the spirit of exploration and growth. Our journey began five years ago with Leia, a luxurious 3-bedroom houseboat that has welcomed over 2,000 guests from diverse backgrounds. Each guest brings their stories and dreams, and we provide a magical setting to bring them to life.

Leia has been a haven for creative minds—movie directors, actors, musicians, writers, and passionate travelers—who come to visualize, write, and create while cruising through the breathtaking backwaters of Muhamma, Alappuzha, and Kumarakom. Leia has now been joined by Tia and the exquisite Jia, expanding our offerings.

Trip Companion is more than just a tourism venture. Located in the picturesque town of Muhamma, Alappuzha, we work in harmony with nature. Our founding principle is to give back more than we take from the environment, ensuring our business contributes positively to the community. Our motto is Nurture Nature, Nurture Our Future.

We offer bespoke experiences that stand out from the usual backwater houseboat tours. At Trip Companion, you are special. You become a part of our community, a guardian of nature, and a participant in responsible tourism. We invite you to join us and experience the beauty of Kerala’s backwaters in a way that makes you feel truly connected.
