Kochi Water Metro Limited is now offering their air-conditioned electric-hybrid ferries for rent for backwater tours, following the hop-on, hop-off concept. These ferries, claimed to be the first of their kind in Asia, are also available for film shooting during off-peak hours. Customers can book the ferries for ₹15,000 an hour, with approximately 10 bookings in the past month alone. The project, launched in April 2023, operates 18 ferries in busy corridors. Plans are in place to expand the tours to islands around Kochi to boost tourism. The ferries have already received recognition and awards for their innovative design and sustainability efforts.
