Excellent tour

Howard, Jan 2024

Driver, Mr. Rakesh, and our guide were excellent. Guide was very knowledgeable about history and the astronomical methods used by king of City Palace. Excellent tour, thank you. Howard

Team Vivek

Lauren_P, Jan 2024

Vivek was a wonderful guide - we hit all the essentials, great details, ensured our comfort, and thankfully did not dump us into a store where we were pressured to buy something (very common in India). We had a great time and felt like we saw the best Jaipur had to offer!

Authentic Jaipur Experience

Anonymous, Dec 2023

Absolutely wonderful experience! The driver was very knowledgeable about roads to we were rarely stuck in traffic and the guide was extremely proficient in Jaipur history. Very fun and educational experience that taught us so much about the history of Jaipur. If you are looking to tour Jaipur, this is the only way to do it.

Memorable tour!

ConnyVanessa_B, Nov 2023

The tour was well organized. We were picked up on time, and everything went as planned & expected. Surya made the experience memorable!

Very fun tour

Sujata_B, Sep 2023

Amazing Tour, tour guides are knowledgeable and flexible based on what you want to do. We really enjoyed ourselves.

Great full day tour of a beautiful city

MiguelD_Z, Apr 2023

We booked this tour from the U.S. and everything worked out perfectly with communications with the tour company, timeliness and professionalism. The city is incredible with a lot of beautiful sites to see and it was nice to have a good guide and an excellent driver.

Fantastic and fulsome view of Jaipur!

AlekseyS, Dec 2022

We had a very fulfilling experience. Our driver (Mr. Jaheer) and guide (Shar Singh) were very thoughtful, knowledgeable and kind. They gave us a very comprehensive tour of Jaipur from the grand history to the intricate craftmakers. We really enjoyed our experience!

Kamal and Nadeem are the best! Highly recommend!!

Mark_V, Dec 2022

Kamal and Nadeem were the most informative, fun and invested m tour guides I’ve had the privilege of working with! We started the day with Kamal (our your guide) and Nadeem (our driver) meeting us promptly at our hotel. From there, we proceeded to see the Hawa Mahal and my word, was that a sight to behold! I bought Kamal a massala chai directly across the street so we can see the view from a higher vantage point. Kamal was so keen to learn about the gimbal that I was using to capture videos of the day that he offered to take videos and photos to mark each landmark we visited. We then proceeded to see the Amber Palace and Kamal was so informative about each section. After this, we stopped by the glorious Jal Mahal and appreciate this “floating” 17th century palace from afar. A yummy Rajasthani lunch was provided, definitely highly recommend. Then we proceeded to see the local artisanal work of block printing and hand woven rugs where I bought a custom fitted sherwani and pashmina scarf. From here we continued to see the Jantar Mantar with excellent information about the sundials and how to read these incredible instruments. After that, we saw the city palace of Jaipur. Do not miss the intricate doors that this place has, among other breathtaking features in this centuries-old palace. We even had time to visit a local gemologist where I picked up semi-precious chabochon silver rings. I was driven back safely to my hotel and was so happy I got to experience the highlights of Jaipur with incredible tour guides. Thanks Kamal and Nazeem! Definitely recommend!

The BEST Tour of Jaipur with Surya!!

Anjana_S, Dec 2022

My private tour of Jaipur with my guide Surya was by far one of the best tours I’ve EVER had! From the moment my tour first began, Surya was very friendly, welcoming, and reliable. Surya’s knowledge of Jaipur’s history, architecture, and culture exceeded my expectations. As an Indian-American visiting India for the first time, I was impressed by how Surya managed to tailor my tour specifically to what I was hoping to learn and the experiences I was hoping to gain from my trip. He ended our tour with one of the most beautiful landscapes I have ever seen. By the end of the day, I felt so satisfied and content with my experience. 10/10 recommend Surya as your guide for your tour of Jaipur. I can truly say I have never had a tour quite like it!

Best Way to See The Whole City in One Day!

Poonum_M, Nov 2022

We had a great time with Surya (tour guide) and Balveer (driver)! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and explained the history of each palace in great detail. Anything you want to know about the city, Surya can answer. Jantar Mantar has lots of complex instruments but our tour guide explained everything in simple terms, which was very helpful. He also took us to a very nice tea shop and sweets shop upon request. The lunch restaurant we were taken to was delicious. The trip is flexible - it can be as long or as short as you would like with as much detail as you would like. Be prepared for lots of walking and standing on your feet for long periods of time if you want to see EVERYTHING. Definitely will recommend this tour and Surya and Balveer to friends and family who want to visit!

Great Jaipur tour.

Sapna_S, Nov 2022

We loved our trip with our knowledgeable guide. Amber fort palace is a must visit in Jaipur. It was very convenient to book, the car and driver arrived promptly and guide joined us later when we got to our first monument. Overall we were well satisfied with our tour. Bonus is the arts and crafts shop that we visited that showed us hand block printing and other handmade wares.

Great tour and tour guide.

Jason_S, Oct 2022

This was an incredible tour. First off, it showed off Jaipur beautifully and made it become our favorite city in the golden triangle. Our tour guide Sher Sing was incredible. He is a knowledgeable guide who is kind and accommodating. His English was also very easy to understand. He had so much knowledge of the city and a true passion for what he does.

Wo derful Jaipur trip

Palo_K, Oct 2022

Great day. Alot of working but worth it. Guide was good. Saw alot of history .buildi gs are fantatic.

Great tour guide

Eimear_N, Aug 2022

Exceptional tour. Our guide Raj is a real professional. Tour completely to our requests. No commissioned shops and genuinely advised us in the right direction (we have not had this is yours thus far ). Treated me and my boyfriend with utmost respect and we really enjoyed each destination we were brought to. He was knowledgeable and courteous. After our lunch he suggested that we give our food to the homeless. What a lovely thought which we never thought we could do on our tour thus far. What a testament to his character.

Great tour of the major sights in Jaipur

Anders_S, Jul 2022

This tour takes you to the major sights of Jaipur in one day, in addition to optional stops at several artisan stores. My guide for the day, Mr. Surya, was very knowledgeable and also managed to keep it interesting for the whole tour, which is a feat for a 8 hour tour. All in all an excellent guide. The driver, Mr. Monu was nice and sociable, which I appreciated.

Vivek my guide was...

Jack_D, Jul 2022

Vivek my guide was unreal. Spoke really good english and had a wealth of knowledge on every place we visited along, with any other question I had. Was more than happy to spend over 9 hours with me and thoroughly explain everything. He was also a pleasure to talk to when traveling in-between landmarks. Would recommend.

Amazing tour guide and...

Nihal_R, Dec 2021

Amazing tour guide and really well planned tour as per our bespoke needs Car and driver was really good too

A great day in Jaipur

David_D, Mar 2020

The tour was flexibly conducted by Kumar who was wonderfully knowledgeable about the places we visited explaining not just what we were looking at but the history and context too. Kumar was also very happy to engage in extended conversation in response to my more general questions about all things Indian. That was of enormous value for me and my interests. Nizam my driver was courteous and professional throughout and I would recommend him for any journey. Thank you both for a superb day in Jaipur.

Fantastic Tour

Anna_R, Mar 2020

What a fantastic tour, and what made it very special is that our driver Mr. Nizam arrived to pick us up in on old Ambassador, with the words “Marigold Inn” on the side. It reminded me of the movie “Marigold Hotel” which was filmed in Jaipur, what a treat, thank you Mr. Nizam. Guide Akram Khan, who’s English is very good, gave us a fantastic tour, and even took us places that were not on the usual route. Thank you again to both Mr. Nizam and Akram Khan.

Diane_P, Jan 2020

We had a great experience with Suriya as our guide and Nasim as our driver. It was a comfortable tour with an Ambassador all to ourselves. The tour guide was insightful and we were able to customize the day to our needs. The car was safe and we were able to leave our shopping items in the car as the driver stayed nearby. Overall, it was a great way to tour Jaipur with a reliable driver and guide.
