    We book a cab for travel from Cochin Airport to Munnar, within Munnar and drop to Kodaikanal. Mr Sijo Mathew picked us from Cochin and accompanied us all along. He is highly professional and guided us all through our travels and sightseeing. He is a highly efficient and safe driver and a nice gentleman. Next time if we plan another trip we will try to get his cab. Highly recommended from my side. ...more
