Fantastic Kochi Private Tour

Carl_S, Dec 2025
Today's private tour of Kochi was excellent! Ashkar and Abhi were both a joy and helped me learn about Kochi's fascinating history. Ashkar (tour guide) and Abhi (driver) were both friendly, engaging and professional. I'm especially grateful that they were willing to pick me up at my hotel. Ashkar's knowledge and insight are incredible and his willingness to answer my many questions made the tour come alive. He's a true gem and a true Kochi ambassador. I can't adequately express my gratitude to these gentlemen for helping to make my visit to Kochi a joyful learning experience and would recommend them both in a heartbeat!
