Mattancherry is a fascinating blend of cultures, shaped by traders, travelers, and over three dozen communities from across the country. For centuries, these groups coexisted peacefully within a small 3-kilometer radius, creating a unique model of unity in diversity.
Thanks to the region's thriving trade routes and the support of benevolent rulers, Mattancherry flourished as the capital and royal seat of the Cochin Kingdom until Ernakulam took its place.
On this tour, you'll explore the rich history of these communities — their traditions, stories, and culinary practices that reflect influences from across the world. From spice-laden kitchens to the bustling markets that once connected Kochi to global trade networks, this journey will reveal how Mattancherry’s heritage continues to shape the city’s identity today.
The tour can be ended with a sumptuous curated meal with a local family. (charged extra)
