Kochi (Cochin) Cruise Reviews

Lovely tour visited the Portuguese fishing nets and saw the meat/fish market. ...

enjoyed walking through the town ...

swamped by taxi drivers on leaving the ship , took a private tuk tuk ride and was a very good value tour of the town. ...

Guide was good, however everyone on the excursion, specifically booked this as there was not meant to be shops. We visited 2 similiar stores and felt pressured into buying. ...

Busy, dirty, funny, crazy. Take a Tuk Tuk from the port and you effectively get a driver and tour guide in one for buttons. Typical tour for 4 hours plus is circa 1000 - 1500 rupees (£11 - £16). We had a driver called Sidyad (I think that’s how you spell it) and he was brilliant. Wished I had tipped him more as he was a genuine and lovely guy. ...

tours did not interest us. ...

Another tour with Muziris Heritage tours including trip on houseboat on back waters of Kerala. Very good tour with delicious meal served on board. ...

very busy city with lots of rubbish lined streets and beggars which was distressing ...

Stayed pier side to shop. Good bargains Very Hot. Easy to barter with the traders. Will take dollars and stirling. ...

This is our 2nd time to be in cochin. We hired a taxi to go about and do some shopping. We were disappointed to see the deteriated tidiness and cleanliness in the town and by the ocean. ...
