I would highly recommend Biju's tour in Fort Kochi. It is the best way to get around the city and experience the local culture, traditions and ways of life. Biju spends good quality time explaining the history of the land and does not rush through the tour. He also allows much flexibility to pick and choose the places of visit based on your time and interest. The local people are very familiar with Biju and are very friendly when you visit different places. If you're visiting Fort Kochi, look no further and book your tour with Biju only! It's the best way around the area in his tuk tuk ride :)The best of part of the tour was the Guide- Mr.Biju. He was very good, extremely friendly and very well behaved.

This was an excellent and informative walking tour. Biju’s standard of English was very good and he was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Fort Kochi and gave information in an interesting way, happily answering my questions. He took me to see a Dhoby and also ladies making popodums so that I could get a taste of day to day life in Fort Kochi. I would highly recommend this walk with Biju.We enjoyed this tour although my suggestion would be to get the guide to start in Jew Town and work back to the fishing nets.

We enjoyed this tour although my suggestion would be to get the guide to start in Jew Town and work back to the fishing nets. Then you are set up for the evening and can just wander off to a restaurant. Make sure you get the guide to stop for a drink in e middle. Our guide had very nice manner and it’s all the little asides that you get form a local person that make a guided trip really interesting.We had a wonderful time on our walking tour with Bijus!

We had a wonderful time on our walking tour with Bijus! Truly everyone on Fort Kochi knows him, and he knows it like the back of his hand. Communicating was easy and his laid back demeanor made everything go smoothly, even when I accidentally left my glasses behind in a tuk tuk (which, since this was day two of a two week trip, could’ve easily been a disaster!) Bijus clearly loves his home, and seeing it with him was a unique and lovely experience!
