We experienced two fabulous small group tours as part of our cruise port visits with Lijo & his team.

Our first tour was in Mumbai with Subo who was a first class guide who took care and time to give us the best flavour of Mumbai possible. We loved the visit to the flower market, train ride as part of the tour and enjoyed an excellent authentic lunch.

Our second tour was in Goa with Savio C. A great contrast to Mumbai the day before but equally as excellent. Savio was such a gentleman who shared his knowledge about his beautiful city throughout the tour. We thought the included buffet lunch was top class. The whole tour was great but the highlight was seeing the cows bathing in the sea on the way back to our ship.

We learnt and experienced so much about the diverse culture of this part of India during both tours. We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending booking a tour with Muziris Heritage, the communication from booking through to meeting Lijo and his team at the port was excellent.

Thank you Lijo.

Thanks to Lijo, myself and 2 colleagues got a short glimpse of Fort Kochi with only a few hours to spare on a work trip. I had arranged everything via WhatsApp while still in the UK to which Lijo was incredibly responsive even with the time differences. He was very accommodating on our tour, humouring us by going with our desire to travel by tuk tuk when he didn’t not think it was such a good idea (he thought we would just end up being taken to the tuk tuk drivers’ family shops) and allowing us to indulge in our need to shop and buy gifts rather than immerse ourselves in culture. I would definitely recommend Lijo.

I had approached Muziris Heritage for a custom holiday trip from Bangalore to Calicut covering major tourist destinations along the way.
Right from day 1, Lijo provided route guidance and worked closely with me to provide a tailor made itinerary. It was my dad's retirement trip and Lijo made sure that it was a truly memorable experience for all of us. He trusted us when there were a few hiccups from our side and was extremely patient with all our requirements. Our driver Senthil did an excellent job as well, and took great care of us.
I will definitely recommend him to anyone traveling to India or Kerala and isn't well aware of how to plan the trip.

Lijo provided an excellent 2 days of touring the lovely city of Mumbai while we were in port on a cruise. His communication prior to arriving for the tour was excellent and he is very prompt when responding. He's very easy to find on the cruise pier with excellent signage close to the gangway and pointed us to a very nice bus (which is important for some ports where transportation may not be at the same standard).

Our first day was a tour with a lovely tour guide, Mala. Not only was she passionate about India, she was so friendly and gave a wonderful tour. We went to the Caves of Elephanta which are lovely to see. After the approximately 1 hour boat ride to Elephanta Island, Mala gave a wonderful narration about each of the carvings inside the main caves and how it related to Hinduism and broader Indian culture.

On our second day, we were lucky to have Mala as our tour guide again. This time we did a full Mumbai city tour. She was phenomenal. We saw City Hall, the famous Victoria Station, a local market including a lovely spice shop. Afterward we went to the Churchgate station to see the arrival of the Dabawallas (lunchbox delivery service) and then rode the train to the Dhobi ghat (outdoor laundry) before boarding the bus to see the Gateway to India and have some time for shopping. The entire tour was lovely and well planned. The only complaint we had was that lunch was scheduled for the very end of the tour, around 2pm. It would have been nicer for lunch to be earlier, around 1130a. Since it was at the end of the tour, some people in our group wanted to return to the ship instead of staying for lunch.

Overall, Mala was a fantastic tour guide who I would recommend to anyone visiting Mumbai. Lijo runs an excellent operation, is very organized, and made our visit to Mumbai memorable and I'd recommend his services to anyone as well.

Reliable and good excursion company in Mumbai. Good communications during booking from uk for an excursion during a cruise visit in Mumbai. Provided good reasonable mini coach as a group tour We booked individually from uk and were put in a group on day. Happy.
They were waiting for us at the pier as advised. Good. Picked up and dropped off back at pier on time.
We paid on day on coach. Quick and easy card payment. Lijo was present even though he was also in Cochin 2 days prior for the Cochin excursions for our ship.
That’s dedication to customer service.

I would use again if ever travelled to Mumbai or Cochin

Lijo provided us with 5 star superior guides and service in both Mumbai and Kochin. I can highly recommend this tour operators professional guides Mala in Mumbai and Shyam in Kochi. We found them knowledgeable, informative and very pleasant to deal with. The drivers and vehicles used by Lijo and his company were of the highest standard we experienced while in India.

Buyer beware!
Booked a Mumbai tour for 2 people and eventually had to cancel. Website states over 45 days out that there will be full refund. We canceled well over 2 months in advance. Had to contact Lijo multiple times before any money was refunded. And to this day, we've still only received half of what we paid back. My last contact attempts has gone unanswered.
Money in the pocket, and can't deny a fact, money never returned!

Ma’am We refunded to you right away we get the cancellation notification, I also told you to do chargeback or dispute with your card company for quick refund but you simply ignored our favour. Here we have to take many paperwork’s to refund and it’s time consuming, thank you that you mentioned you have one refund from us and now only we take a look on your transaction and you did it as two payments from same car different time . I seen many places you put negative reviews even on the first mail you called us thief it’s not the right way to ask your hard earned money we don’t want your $40 , kindly chargeback Lijo

Highly recommend! We were picked up at our hotel and greeted by a wonderful team of tour guides. Our private tour took us all over Kerala and ended with a homemade lunch. We took a boat tour, rode in a Tuk Tuk, and visited one of the local temples.

I booked this trip from the UK so was a little concerned but need not have worried. Everything worked perfectly from credit card payments to on time pickup and drop off. The houseboat was clean and comfortable and provided an excellent lunch. A special thank you to my driver/ guide Ranjith who came with me on the boat and was good and knowledgable company.

My husband and I had one short day in December in Cochin, from a cruise - 8:30 - 2 pm. Lijo was our well-groomed, enthusiastic, punctual, and experienced guide. He was flexible in his options where others were not. He arranged to pick us up with his driver and deliver us back to the ship in time, and took us on an array of sites in the surrounding areas. Compared with the cost of other operators in Cochin, Lijo's cost of $85 pp was excellent value for money, especially since it was just 2 of us for the day. We tipped both he and his driver well.

The highlight was a Kerala backwaters tour, which no one else on the cruise was able to arrange in the short time available However, Lijo did it for us, and did it in style. The covered longboat was waiting at the dock of the beautiful Vedic Village resort, and we cruised the enchanting backwaters in leisure for almost an hour. He was a font of information of every sort.

We then took a ferry with the locals - not a single other tourist was on the ferry boat - across the water to Fort Cochin where we visited several sites including temples, the Jewish Synagogue, and a chic cafe, Kashi, for coffee, chai tea, and the most splendid chocolate cake (recommended by Lonely Planet!)

All in all, a jam-packed and beautiful day, with the backwaters tour the most delightful way to spend an hour. We highly recommend the very professional services of Lijo and his excellent driver.
