This was a truly unique and beautiful experience. With Ajita I didn't only learn stories and history about Cochi, she IS history herself. You will see how her and her family played a big role and involvement in the development of the city. Do not hesitate booking a tour with her. It was amazing!

Summary:
As a part of a private group booking I had the experience of Ajita local tour. Don’t think twice and book this lady to show you around Fort Kochi, her knowledge in the local history is 30 years of her experience doing tours and being a local has her own personal stories to tell. Ajita is engaging, very clearly spoken and adds in some very interesting stories and a great sense of humour to some things shared. A lovely lady!
