Overall rating

(4 reviews)

I am happy with this tour overall. The tour guide was very knowledgeable, the car was clean and conditioner worked well. No bad smells. The driver drove very carefully. We saw everything what was on the list. I also felt safe with the guide on the streets, nobody came to talk to me or touched me. I also appreciated that nobody forced me to go to any shops and buy anything. The guide politely asked if I want it but I politely declined this option. It was one of the main reason why I choose this tour when I did not see any information about pushing for shopping in reviews and confirm it. I highly recommend this tour and the company.

We had an excellent day. Our guide, John was very knowledgeable and gayus a great insight into the history of Hyderabad. He paced the walk up to the top of the Golconda Fort perfectly, while telling us the history of the place. We enjoyed walking around the Qutub Shahi tombs and learning about the registration. Walking around Charminar was a delight for all the senses. Our stop for chai and cookies was delicious. Our driver was excellent and negotiated a very difficult drive back to our hotel due to heavy rain and lots of traffic. Overall a fantastic day and a great insight into Hyderabad.

I had an amazing day exploring Hyderabad sights with my tour guide Mohan. He explained the history of Hyderabad and the places we visited very well and provided a lot of interesting details. He also recommended best spots for taking photos which was great. The lunch was also very good, a local place specialising on biryani. The tour was well organised and the timing for visiting each place was perfect.

Excellent choice than driving around myself. Had a really amazing experience because if guide Mohan who had good knowledge about places and recommendations. It was a perfect day and it was worth. Highly recommended.

Great driver, comfortable air conditioned car, we had multiple drop off and pickups and he was always there very quickly. Would highly recommend this experience!
