Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Can a family of 5 fit into a 2-bedroom houseboat?
A: Yes. Two bedrooms accommodate 4 adults, and the 5th person can be accommodated using an extra mattress provided in one of the rooms for a small extra-person charge.
Q: Are multi-bedroom houseboats safe for small children?
A: Yes. Modern 2 and 3-bedroom houseboats feature high wooden safety guards along the outer deck corridors. Crew members also provide child-sized life jackets for safety while on board.
Q: Which category is best for families traveling with children or seniors?
A: Premium or Luxury is recommended. Deluxe houseboats only run AC at night (8:30 PM to 6:00 AM), which can make afternoon cruising uncomfortably warm for children or elderly family members during sunny months.
Q: How does dining work for families with mixed dietary preferences?
A: The onboard chef cooks exclusively for your group. You can request a mix of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes, mild spice levels for kids, or specific items like fish fry for adults and simple chicken curry or rice for children.
