DIPTESHKUMAR_P, Aug 2026

It was a wonderful experience!

It was a wonderful experience! Everyone was so welcoming and made us feel right at home. The narrow canal experience was absolutely amazing and gave us a beautiful glimpse of the local way of life. We were also lucky to celebrate Onam with their family, which made the experience even more special and memorable. ❤️ A special thanks to Firoze for the wonderful pickup and drop experience, and to Mira for being such a warm and knowledgeable guide throughout the trip. Thank you, guys, for making our Onam celebration so memorable! Highly recommended! 🙏✨

Kochi Tour Guide -A Heritage walking tour in Fort kochi and Mattancherry !

Raju_A, May 2026

Fabulous Heritage Tour of Fort Kochi

Viator has put together an all encompassing itinerary! Biju Tours is an exemplary operator and the Guide Thomson made it a joyous and satisfying experience in the deadly heat of Kerala summer! The guide displayed deep knowledge of history of Fort Kochi Kerala and India at large! He enjoyed his role and went above and beyond in making it a memorable trip! Kudos to his willingness to give me a lift on an E-Scooter for the longer stretches of the tour and escape the rigour of the Kerala summer.Suffice it to say that narration of historical and cultural aspects were class apart! The tour has left me with a vivid image of Fort Kochi under the Portuguese,Dutch and the British colonizers. It was indeed a deeply satisfying heritage and I would commend Biju Tours and Mr.Thomson for the experience.

The 4 hour tour with...

The 4 hour tour with Martin was excellent. He took us to all the places of interest on the itinerary and was able to provide a running commentary. His English was not great which is to be expected but we could understand him. The tuk tuk was able to get down small streets that cars and buses couldn’t which meant we saw life in Kochi up close. It was a comfortable ride and we felt safe as Martin drove well

An amazing day in Kochi

We had an amazing day with Thouseef. He took us to so many interesting and diverse places, many of which no other tourists would ever see. We visited many places of worship and had a mini food tour. Nothing was too much trouble and we left very happy but sad that we had to leave.

Green Magic Day Tour to Munnar

Shamila_G, Apr 2026

Beautiful Munnar

This was a wonderful trip. It takes about 3-3.5 hours to get to the tea plantation from Kochi. If your hotel isn't listed as a pickup location, contact person listed and check if they'll pick you up, anyways. Because they did this for us. Our driver, Feroz was excellent in every way. Patience, kindness, accommodating and safe. First stop us for breakfast, but it's not a place I would've chosen. It was a vegetarian menu and the bathroom accommodations were suboptimal. Our guide to the tea plantation, Suresh was kind, knowledgeable, patient and accommodated us accordingly. I have drank tea all my life, but never really learned anything about it. Today charged all of that and more. Suresh chose a wonderful location for us to picnic and provided us with snacks and the BEST tea I've ever had! Feroz took us to a spice garden, where we learned so much! I have a whole different appreciation for sources l spices and ayurvedic treatments. I would definitely do this again! Thanks Suresh and Feroz!!!

Enjoy the best Food tour in kochi with a local !

Maureen_C, Mar 2026

Fab food tour of Fortkochi

We loved this food tour - Biju is born and raised in the town and knows everyone. Going on his tour gives you the chance to visit the restaurants like a local - and get treated like a VIP. We started with some fresh drinks (mango and avocado) before taking Biju’s tuk tuk to a nearby vegetarian place. We moved from there to a different restaurant serving different meat dishes and various accompaniments. And ended with a cooling drink at a street side family shop. Traveling as a tourist, you’d never find these places or know how good they were, so getting the personal tour is well worth doing and we’d recommend it to anyone.

Cochin: Backwater Village Eco Boat Cruise with Lunch

Raymond_H, Feb 2026

Relaxing and peaceful tour

This tour was awesome, such a peaceful and relaxing way to see the sights. The tour guide picked us up near the cruise terminal and then we drove about an hour to the Kerala backwaters but the drive was interesting with lots to see. Stopped at a villagers house for a cup of tea and snacks and a demonstration about village life. We really enjoyed this slow paced and relaxing tour.

Best of kochi ! A private tour in kochi with a local guide !

L_S, Feb 2026

Excellent choice!

We are so glad that we booked this tour - as noted by others, Biju was outstanding, engaging, knowledgable and a wonderful ambassador for his hometown of Kochi. Additionally, we booked pretty late and needed modifications reducing the time of the tour by a few hours - he was so responsive and flexible, and honestly, the tour was still so comprensive and yet relaxed, that we feel we saw it all, and learned so much. Our driver Justin was excellent, and contributed to our learning too - expert driver and very kind. Totally recommend this tour of beautiful, multi-cultural Kochi!

Kathleen_H, Jan 2026

Thanks for a great day!...

Thanks for a great day! Our guide picked us up at our hotel to drive us to the houseboat.

Amazing 5 day Kerala tour with Sanguine

We went on a 5-day private tour in Kerala, which we booked with Sanguine through the Viator app. They arranged the trip wonderfully. Nimisha was amazing — always available to answer our questions and help whenever we needed. Sumesh was an excellent driver and a knowledgeable guide throughout the trip. The cost was very reasonable, and they arranged beautiful resorts. The houseboat experience was incredible. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Kerala and created unforgettable memories there.
