Amazing experience - An amazing experience. The food was fantastic and on top of that, getting to know Akhil was one of our highlights. He showed us around and taught us about Kerala and the food culture. Highly recommend the tour!!

A must when in Alleppey! - We had a fantastic tour with Akhil! Communication was great beforehand and we were delayed from a boat tour but Akhil waited for us. He listened to our preferences and taught us so much during this time. We wouldn't have experienced this food without him and this tour. Lots of food and the different chai tea was delicious l. Thank you!

Unique - Akhil is a great friendly guide. He also set up a cooking session the next day with students from his hospitality collage. I had a 10/10 experience. Thanks, mate.

Not a good use of our time - We had a great tour guide but we felt the trip was not well designed by the company. The first hour is spent at a museum that has a lot of things not related to Kerala. The second hour was supposed to be three churches and the beach at sunset but we were too tired to do all that. One church was enough for us. We had more fun stopping for local refreshments. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about Kerala and we learned more from him than from seeing a bunch of churches. Our recommendation to the company- redesign this tour. The museum was good for showing the Kerala antiques but it's not worth spending an hour there. I didn't come to Kerala to see expensive crystal and china from around the world. I wanted to learn more about the history of Allepy and the coir industry which brought so much wealth to the region. What about mosques and temples? Those could have been included too. Is there an art or music scene in Allepy? That would be interesting too. After it was over, we felt it was not a good use of our time. Thankfully, our knowledgeable tour guide made up for what was lacking in the tour.

Tour content could be greatly improved - Three stars for this because the tour was not good (especially for the price) but the tour guide was awesome (extremely helpful with giving us transit and food recs, also friendly). However, the guide was not very knowledgeable/did not offer much information besides just leading us around to the major museum and some churches in Alleppey that we could have done ourselves.
