A great tour which met all our expectations. We were taken to important tourist sites, as well as off the beaten track locations, where normal tours would not have been able to take us. Augustine was cooperative, flexible, attentive & helpful at all times, polite and gave a good commentary. His english was very good. Special thanks for his attention to my wife's needs.

Augustine was very knowledgeable, both about the heritage/history but also the present actual social and political issues in which we were interested. He was very friendly and accomodating, while he also arranged transport for us to our next place to stay. We really enjoyed our day, thanks to Augustine ( and the good driver ! )Definitely worth 5 stars.

What a fantastic time we had on this tour! Augustine shared his extensive knowledge of the history, politics and social issues of Kerala as we cruised down the backwaters of Allepey... the houseboat was charming and the lunch extensive and delicious. Augustine is both knowledgeable and interesting, and wonderfully personable. The tour is all that we expected and more!

Augustine is a brilliant guide! He is well educated, articulate and goes out of his way to please clients. He and the driver met us in a private, air-conditioned van, with jasmine garlands and gifts of spices and went out of his way to make sure we had a fabulous day on the amazingly gorgeous waterways of Kerala. We had a personal houseboat,a wonderful staff, a fabulous meal and engaging conversation about what life is really like in Cochin. I highly recommend Augustine as a guide. Absolutely! Thank you!
