Highly recommend this tour if you want to see the main sights of Hyderabad. The tour was well organised and followed a well thought out schedule. My guide, Santosh, was friendly, knowledgeable and spoke perfect English. Sharing a cup of Irani chai and some freshly baked cookies was the highlight of the day!

  • Explore the hill fortress of Golconda, once the diamond trading capital of India

Full description

Your experience will begin as you are collected from your accommodation after breakfast. Get acquainted with your English-speaking guide and drive to the majestic Golconda Fort, about 11 km from the city. Originally built as a mud fort, the complex has undergone changes through the centuries under the rule of the Bahmani Sultans and the Qutub Shahi dynasty. Learn about the acoustics of the building and the intricate water management system designed here. Your guide will explain the history of the fort and how it shaped the future of Hyderabad and its people.

At noon, head to the Qutub Shahi Tombs located close by. Erected in the memory of the rulers of the region, the impressive granite tombs, arches and columns are worth a visit. Stroll through the gardens and visit the exhibition to learn the significance of this landmark.

Continue to Hyderabad's Old City, where you will visit the Chowmahalla Palace which was once home to the Nizams, reputed to be one of the richest families of India. As many as 7000 attendants were required to maintain the opulent palace. Some of the noteworthy sections in this Palace include a water fountain, vintage cars, intricate carvings, glass chandeliers and the grand durbar hall. On Fridays, Choumahalla is closed and we will instead visit the spectacularly built Badshahi Ashoorkhana.

The final destination is Charminar, a monument that is symbolic of the city of Hyderabad. It was built in 1591 by Mohammed Quli Qutub Shahi, the fifth sultan of the Qutub Shahi dynasty to commemorate the end of a deadly plague attack of the city. Hear of the legends of this place such as the presence of a secret tunnel underneath Charminar which connected to Golconda Fort, created as a means of escape for the royal family at times of distress. At the end of the tour, be dropped back to your hotel.

The tour is organised by Five Senses Tours Private Limited which is recognised by the ministry of tourism. The company supports local communities by way of providing livelihood, training and employment of local guides and procurement of local products.

One of best tours I’ve been on. Mohan was extremely knowledgeable and the tour was very well planned. The sites we visited were incredible and Mohan helped bring them to life. We definitely recommend this tour if you are in Hyderabad and especially if you only have a limited amount of time here.
