Spice Routes Luxury Cruise, a renowned name in Kerala’s premium houseboat tourism segment, has received the prestigious Diamond Classification of Kerala Tourism.
 
Spice Routes Luxury Cruise becomes the only houseboat operator to have this sterling distinction as of now.
 
The Diamond is the highest recognition in Kerala’s houseboat classification system, awarded by the Department of Tourism to operators who meet strict benchmarks in safety protocols, environmental sustainability, design aesthetics, service quality, and guest comfort.
 
The certification validates Spice Routes’ investment in advanced safety infrastructure, including fire safety, GPS tracking, emergency preparedness, and staff training, all of which exceed mandatory compliance requirements. 

Spice Routes Luxury Cruise has now joined an exclusive group of top-rated operators recognised by the state for their contribution to promoting sustainable and responsible tourism in Kerala.
 
It offers a carefully curated fleet of luxury houseboats that combine traditional Kerala craftsmanship with modern elegance. The cruise provides personalised onboard dining, eco-friendly amenities, and attentive staff to deliver a world-class experience for discerning travellers.
 
“We are incredibly proud to receive this distinguished recognition from Kerala Tourism, which highlights our commitment to excellence and puts us on the map as a premium houseboat cruise provider,” said Mr. Jobin J.
