I have been two times in Goa, but this was the best experience I ever had in any of my trips. Thanks to Bout India for arranging such a great experience. Now I can say Goa is much more than just Beach, Babes and beer. We had amazing time. Arambol and Calangute beach are must place to visit.

We were met at our hotel by our guide for the day and he was waiting for us as we arrived at the front of the hotel. The car and driver were good - the traffic was busy as it was rush hour and there is a lot of roadworks to build a new bridge between North and South Goa. Some places of interest were pointed out an route and the stops we made were interesting. We enjoyed the day, including lunch at the Spice Farm where we had a buffet including fish, chicken and vegetable curries. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and answered any questions we had. An enjoyable experience.

We took the tour with Bala. It was really nice since it included all the things we like the most: nice bicycle ride across the city, history lesson, Indian food and a great guide that put it all together! We recommend to take this tour on the first days in Kochi since it is an excellent way to know the city, understand its culture and diversity, and taking recommendations from the guide for later!

My wife and I encountered Joyce on a houseboat cruise boat on the Kerala backwaters. Joyce was very clear and straightforward in his explanations of Kerala and its history, and given his 17 years of tour experience, had answers to all of our questions. We liked Joyce so much we hired him for an additional day to tour us around Cochin to see several sights (beach resort, Maharaja Palace, heritage museum, Fort Kochi, etc). Joyce was very flexible in adapting the tour so we could see what we wanted (more historical sites than massages or resorts), and he arrived early and catered completely to our needs. Will recommend Joyce to any of our friends that visit Kerala.
