Holiday review by Mr. Geoffrey Gates
Name: Mr. Geoffrey Gates
Date of trip: 23/11/2014
Number of people: 2
Meeting the drum player by the river Nila This was a change to the programme but it was fantastic
Allover Kerala the people were fantastic and friendly
Tribes Overall:
No holiday is perfect but we had a really good time
Tribes Service:
The information about departure was not fully correct
Although we could not change the rupees after security they were still the currency to use in the departure lounge as the rip off exchange rate there was 60 rps to £1
Guides:
Variable is the best word. Their English with 2 exceptions was poor and their knowledge beyond the immediate environment was non existent. In other countries we are use to having in depth conversations with the guides
Social & Environmental Responsibility:
We saw a variety of situations and they were all excellent in their own way
The places you stayed
Kerala Houseboat
India
The men were very helpful and we bought kingfish which they cooked and it was delicious
Fort House Hotel
India
We ate there twice and the food was good but we should have been told that they did not serve alcohol
