We didn't have a guide as he had a family emergency. But the driver was very good and took us to many interesting places on Nandi Hills, surroundings and upon request even in Bengaluru. We appreciated him accommodating us, taking care of all acces and parking at many sights and providing a delicious breakfast. Nandi Hills was a breath of fresh air, far from the noise and hustle of the city. It was very peaceful and quiet, with funny monkeys at the entrance. We walked there around 2 hours and then went to a temple in the nearby village. After this we saw several sights in the city, including Bengaluru Palace.
