Wonderful - It was a lovely tour. Biju was super knowledgeable and so nice. He took us to places we wouldn’t have discovered ourselves and the history of Kerala and Cochin which is fascinating. Would definitely recommend.

Great tour of a grounding in Kochi culture and history - This was a great overview of Kochi. We’d arrived just a day before and really appreciated how this tour took us to all the different sites and provided a deeper history of Kochi and Kerala. Biju was a great guide and was able to answer all of our questions

Solar tour with Biju - Biju is a jewel. We had a great walking tour with him. He takes the time to explain the essentials for us to remember, he has a communicative humor, and a perfect English. He takes great pleasure in passing on the beauty of his native Fort Kochi... and we receive it. A great moment!

Incredible way to start our time in Kochi - This was the perfect way to start our trip to Kochi. Biju was a fantastic tour guide. His passion for history and Kochi is immediately obvious and infectious. He shares stories in such a digestible way, with a nice mix of humor. He’s incredibly friendly and attentive, adjusting the pace to our needs and finding a place for a quick break for refreshments. I highly recommend this tour.

History, arts and culture - an opportunity to learn a lot! - Our tour guide Biju was so lovely and extremely knowledgeable about history, arts, culture and every day life in kochi. He made the trip very comfortable as we did struggle with the afternoon heat! We learnt so much and really felt like we experienced kochi and its vibrancy. Thankyou! :)
