Amazing trip

Published on Jun, 2024

What an amazing trip. This so be always memorable. Kannan truly took care of everything throughout the trip from iris, can't thank him enough.

Fantastic day trip on the backwaters.

Published on Jan, 2019

My husband and I heard about iris holidays from another holiday-maker in our hotel, on her recommendation. She gave us the number of Arun, one of the managers, who was contactable on whatsapp. He was prompt in his replies after we told him what he wanted. Within 12 hours he had put together a package of precisely what we wanted. We were picked up at our hotel, the Ramada in Kochi (a hotel which we wouldn’t recommend) and driven to Alleppey by a kind, friendly and safe driver. On arrival we were greeted by the captain who walked us to the boat from the car (a 1 minute walk on a footpath). The boat was fantastic- in good condition, not too noisy, with good air conditioning, a bedroom, bathroom, dining room and open air balcony. We had the whole boat to ourselves at the reasonable cost of around £140. The chef on board cooked us a delicious lunch. We spent 5 hours on the boat and were able to see the beautiful back waters and it’s wildlife, before being transferred back to our car and back to our hotel. All the timings were spot on as quoted, our driver even arrived early in the morning (basically unheard of in India!) and everything went exactly as planned and advertised. Thanks for a great trip.

Awesome trip!

Iris tours were 1st class with this trip They provided all the details to me and were available on-the phone for any questions we had The driver they provided was the best we have met so far in years (Soji) he was polite and courteous all the way until he dropped us off the hotels were all nice and clean We all enjoyed the experience!

Wonderful trip to Kerala

Published on Nov, 2018

My 67-year old mother was visiting me in India and I wanted to explore Kerala with her. Shiji, our tour operator, managed to tailor a package for us that showcased different aspects of ‘God’s Own Country’ but wasn’t too hard on the feet. We saw the city delights and history of Kochi, the art and agriculture in the hills of Munnar and the backwaters of Alleppey via houseboat and hotel on ancestral land. Our driver Jude was funny and kind and took great care to ensure we got to do everything we wanted. All in all a lovely trip - thank you Shiji, Jude and Iris Holidays!
