Experience Marine Drive, Bolgatty Palace, Willingdon Island, and high-seas sunset vistas all in one day.
Experience Kochi from the Ocean
Kochi, affectionately known as the Queen of the Arabian Sea, offers one of the most stunning coastal landscapes in South Asia. Sailing from Marine Drive through the serene Cochin Harbour and into the Arabian Sea opens up breathtaking panoramic vistas of historic Bolgatty Palace, Vallarpadam Container Terminal, and the iconic Chinese Fishing Nets.
What Makes Classic Imperial Cruises Special?
