Bijus tours provided an excellent experience from beginning to end. The booking and pick up process was extremely efficient. Our tour guide Azad was extremely accommodating with our needs. He showed us all the important sights and also took us to local places to enhance our experience. Lunch place was delicious and extremely affordable. The spice place supported women’s initiatives was a great place to take us also. Azad did a great job to make our experience a positive one

We were lucky enough that Biju had openings to accommodate our group of 8 for a city tour. What a great day it turned out to be. Biju and his staff were professional and very informative. They not only took us to all of the highlights of the city, they took us to places the tourist would never see unless they were lucky enough to see the city with a local. The day was very hot and humid and the locals live this and they have a smile on their face. We were very grateful for the experience. Do your self a favor. Don’t pass up this opportunity with a great company! +91 80892 08010. On WhatsApp.

There were no memorable parts. The Tuktuk was old and rattling..not at all like the flower bedecked modern tuktuk shown in your promotional photograph. The driver/guide was a very niice man but his English was very poor and he seemed reluctant and unenthusiastic. I feel that you should compensate us with at a least a 50% refund for a missed opportunity that we we will never be able to recover. Please note that I expect a response to my comments.

The tour is advertised as having English speaking guides. The guide had very basic English so we didn't find out a lot. We had no idea of an itinerary from the guide. We visited far too many shops where there was pressure to buy.

Kathi Velus was our guide for the day. He could not have been more accommodating and friendly. He took us to places that we would have never seen on our own or with a private bus from the cruise ship. He was so proud of his city and the amazing things to be seen. When it was time to stop, he would let us know by saying “looking” and it never disappointed. He was such a kind and sweet man. I encourage you took book this tour and please tip your driver at the end. While ten dollars doesn’t mean that much to us, it was a huge amount of money to him. He was so grateful!
