The Jodhpur tour with Balaji Forex Tours & Travels was excellent. The tour and the service were the best we have had in India. Even though the tour had been booked in English, they provided us with a guide, Jaswant Singh, who speaks Spanish very well (at no extra cost). He helped us take photos, answered all our questions, and took us to the best places in the blue city. In addition, Ray, the English-speaking guide, brought us to the blue city in a vehicle in excellent condition, offered us complimentary water, and recommended places to shop. I highly recommend Balaji Forex Tours & Travels for tourist services and transportation in Jodhpur.

The overall experience was excellent. Our guide Prabhat was highly knowledgable, well-mannered and very helpful. We had a very memorable walking tour of Jodhpur- the Blue City.

The tour was amazing especially the guide. He took care of every small thing and was very patient. Everything was explained well. Would highly recommend this tour.

The guide Vijender Singh took us through the most beautiful corners of Jodhpur, as well as giving an extensive explanation of all the places of interest visited.

Our guide was always courteous and answered all of our questions with a lot of patience. We can highly recommend this tour
