"We had a wonderful tour with our guide, Biju! Our driver picked us up from our hotel promptly and explained sites on the way to Fort Kochi where we met Biju. Biju was welcoming, friendly and accommodating throughout the tour. As he has lived in Kochi his whole life, he is extremely knowledgeable about the area and proud of his heritage and wants to share it with the world. He gave great detail of the history of Fort Kochi, architecture and cultural significance and answered all of our questions! We truly felt that we learned about the area, history and culture of what we were seeing and highly recommend the tour."

Our tour was a very enjoyable experience with Biju. He was knowledgeable, patient respectful he made sure we were enjoying ourselves. He brought his local perspective to the tour, which we appreciated immensely. His passion and pride for Kochi was very evident. I would strongly recommend him for any future tours in Kochi.

Biju kindly explained various things to me using slow English so that I could better understand the Japanese. It was very nice to tour around Fort Kochi efficiently and safely in a short time. I also had a lot of photos taken. The problem was that I didn't really know where I was going with all of it, probably because of my English.

Fantastic tour and fantastic guide! The tour with Biju feels like you are an old friend visiting a home town for the first time. You get a truly authentic experience and tailored itinerary to your interests. Biju knows the history and culture amazingly well and you can tell he is genuinely interested in making sure you are comfortable and appreciating the beauty. Even in the monsoon rain the tour was special and I came away with so much knowledge and appreciation for Kochi. On a rainy day, Biju made sure I stayed as dry as possible while seeing plenty of Kochi. I can’t recommend this tour enough. Come with an idea of what you are most interesting in seeing because there is so much to explore.

We did a private car version of the tour and had a wonderful time! Biju was very knowledgeable about the sights and he modified our trip as per our interests and timing. He provided us with many interesting facts about each of the places visited, things we will take away and remember. The car was clean and in very good condition. Definitely recommend the trip for a short insight into Kochi’s history.

Amazing tour and guide. Dr Francis spoke excellent English and gave us great understanding of the history of Kochi and significance of the buildings while sharing how the locals live. He showed us his home and we met his beautiful 78 year old mother and 3 rescue dogs. We were also introduced to friends while on our walking tour. Such an authentic experience was incredible and the willingness to share his personal life was a highlight of our holiday and something we will never forget. Going to the Womens Co-operative to buy spices, tea and hand made crafts was also a highlight of the tour and our holiday. Such a great initiative and we hope our purchases help improve the lives of local women and families.

Our guide Dr Francis was exceptional with his local knowledge. His commitment to his local community and animal welfare made this tour feel very personal and allowed us a glimpse into the local people.

Great tour with a Biju who grew up and currently lives in Kochi. He speaks excellent English and has a vast knowledge of the city's history. Car with AC was much better than riding in a Tuk Tuk for us. Really enjoyed how he connected the history to the people who currently live in the city. Amazing that 16 different languages are spoken in one city. And people of different ethnic groups and religions all living in harmony together. He even had pictures of the city from growing up to show the changes. Highly recommend.
