Joyce was an exceptional guide. His in-depth knowledge of history, art and architecture of Cochin was amazing. He is very professional and friendly and went above and beyond to ensure that our visit to Cochin was excellent. We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend Joyce.

We had a really good tour around Kochi and our guide (Joyce) explained everything really good and detailed and could answer all the questions we had. He was by far the best Tourguide we had in India. The planning was also really smooth with him and he organized a really good driver for us as well. We suffered a bit from the heat but the tour was adapted to our needs and we spend a good day in Kochi.
