    Passover in Cochin, South India Experience

    Grand Hyatt Kochi Bolgatty Resort

    Since 1994 PS foodservice has developed and run unique and custom group programs for thousands of satisfied participants, in locations worldwide. For the first time ever, we have developed a unique Passover experience in Cochin – one of the world’s most sought-after travel destinations.

With our years of experience running Kosher tours throughout the world, be assured that this Passover program with us will provide amazing memories that will last a lifetime!

    The Grand Hyatt Bolgatty Resort (Cochin)

    The upscale five-star hotel, based on the edge of the beautiful Kerala backwaters, with modern rooms and facilities. The hotel has an outdoor swimming pool, as well as a gym. Rooms have scenic views of either the city, or the tropical backwaters.

    Kochi, Kerala

    Kochi is a vibrant city situated on the south-west coast of the Indian peninsula in the breathtakingly scenic and prosperous state of Kerala, hailed as ‘God’s Own Country’.

    Set on a magnificent estuary, serene Kochi has been drawing traders, explorers and travelers to its shores for over 600 years. 

    Nowhere else in India could you find such an intriguing mix: giant Chinese fishing nets, a 450-year-old+ synagogue, Portuguese- and Dutch-era houses and the crumbling remains of the British Raj. The result is an unlikely blend of medieval Portugal and Holland and an English village grafted onto the tropical Malabar Coast.

    Named as one of the ten paradises of the world by National Geographic Traveler, Kerala is famous especially for its ecotourism initiatives and beautiful backwaters.

    As part of the Passover program, you can visit the famous hilltop station and tea plantations, which are picture-perfect out of a guide book. Envision lush green hills, with mist rising over them. Enjoy the backwaters of Kerala, right from the hotel, with fisherman using Chinese style fishing nets, as well as view birds and plants unique to this magnificent place.

    Take the opportunity to walk through the history of the Jews of Cochin, a fascinating journey that dates to the times of the second temple! With visits to synagogues in the city and villages, be sure to connect to the heritage of our people, over Passover.
