We had a brilliant time. Ashu made sure are trip was perfect. When we had to change things mid trip due to unforeseen circumstances he made sure everything worked.we can’t praise him enough Kerala is amazing,the houseboat was a highlight and I recommend at least 2 nights. We had four. Mr Nelson was an amazing cook best food we’ve had in India and Mr Thomas also made the boat an unforgettable experience. We had great hotels and Steven was a fun driver to have. Kochi is a beautiful interesting city well worth a visit.Show more
