Known as the Malayalam Jews, their history is vague but evidence suggests that the earliest settlers may have arrived in India after the destruction of the Second Temple of Jerusalem in 70 CE. Your tour begins with a pick-up from your hotel in Kochi. From there, you will visit the city’s most important Synagogues, including Chendamangalam, Paradesi synagogue, Pravur synagogue and Kadvum Bagam synagogue, some of the region’s key places of worship. Visit the Jewish Cemetery and Kochi’s Chinese fishing nets, The tour continues with a captivating 2-hour excursion around the Fort Cochin, before getting dropped off back at your hotel or cruise port
