Our honeymoon trip to Kerala with Krish Trip turned out to be one of the most be (Read More)autiful experiences of our life. A big thank you to Neha ji for the perfect planning and smooth arrangements, and special thanks to Lijo for being such a humble, friendly, and supportive guide throughout the journey. From the peaceful backwaters of Alleppey, the greenery of Munnar, the wildlife and adventure of Thekkady, the relaxing vibes of Varkala, to the beautiful sights of Kochi and Trivandrum — every place was perfectly managed and truly unforgettable. We enjoyed elephant rides, Kathakali, Kalaripayattu, nature, culture, and every little moment of this journey. Because of their efforts, our honeymoon became stress-free, comfortable, and full of memories that we will cherish forever. Highly recommended ❤️

My recent trip to Kerala was wonderful. It was well planned by My. Noby from Evo (Read More)ke International . At first I was hesitant as I don't know about him or the company but he really made me feel comfortable and understood my hesitations. He managed the transport from Kochi airport to and from and full availablity during the trip. The driver provided, Nikhil was young gentleman who drove us throughout the kerala's serene beauty. The hotels provided was also good as per our budget. He shared the hotels options before booking giving us the flexibility to choose and change Overall it was nice arranging through Evoke international especially dealing with me Noby.
