Fantastic Kochi City tour by Tuk Tuk - 100% recommend - My husband and I booked this Kochi Tuk Tuk tour . We were greeted by Biju, our tour guide and driver who spoke very good Tamil & English and was spot on with the time. Biju was very polite on meeting him and explained the whole tuk tuk tour journey. The tour was fantastic and Biju was so incredibly informative, he really knew so much history about Kerala, it was great. Biju walked us through a local market and made us feel very safe .After discovering temples, historic buildings & Churches. So glad we went on this tour and really happy we got Biju Your the best Biju 🙏.( Kavithan & Shalu ) I highly recommend that you do not miss this! .

Amazing solo trip experience to Fort Kochi - I took the tour with Biju solo last week and it was amazing! He picked me up from my hotel in Fort Kochi and his service and attention was flawless!. We toured various parts of the city and he provided a lot of infights about the history. I was able to get amazing souvenirs and clothes for my family and friends back home in Jew Town. This was a great experience that I recommend to anyone who wants to explore Fort Kochi.

Best travel tour in Kochi. - I came alone in kochi for only one day and book a kochi tour. Mr.Biju was my tuk tuk driver, tour guide, photographer and the best companion . He is very knowledgable, personable, and engaging. We stopped at perfume shop and I spent almost an hour shopping and he didn't say a word. He was very patient throughout the journey. Highly HIGHLY recommend this tour!!!

Tub-tuck tour - Arrived punctually at our hotel and took us around to all the main attractions. Drivers were very attentive and were happy to show me additional places that were off the original programme including Princess Street.

Highly recommended - Biju has always lived in Kochi. If you are looking for a reliable guide you are in good hands.
He runs its tours by tuk tuk which is a convenient way to introduce you to Kochi and Fort Kochi in particular.
He speaks good English, he is professional and kind.
We had a 3hr very interesting and informative tour and spend a nice time together. Tour price was fair as you cover lots of places.
We had loads of photos opportunities in authentic places to discover the local life which was nice.
We enjoyed our time. We greatly recommend Biju for your future visit of Kochi .

Wonderful experience ! - It was a wonderful experience. We were lucky to have the owner Biju who is a tuktuk driver but also a guide !
Depends of your interest but Biju is flexible on the tour ! So we have a very interesting day with him. Full of cultural and historical facts. Also we stop at many places were you can meet some locals and share a moment with them. Highly recommended ! Thanks Biju !

ADVENTURE TU TUK TOURS IN COCHIN ARE BIG CHEATS - This person who spoke to me & chatted on what’s app claimed to be a the Manager of ADVENTURE TU TUK TOURS, one of the rudest, unpleasant person to speak to, when I booked the tour I was told hotel pick up will be done, later I was called & told this is not part of the package., ADVENTURE TU TUK TOURS should be boycotted for CHEATING, I was very disappointed, with NO solution he cancelled my tour leaving me high & dry for next day, be careful do not use this tour operator.
