Excellence in Every Aspect of Our Experience - Prashant and his team ensured that every part of our experience was seamless and enjoyable. Long before the trip he was in contact with us to arrange travel and help with flight transfers. Prashant's responses were always very prompt and honest and we felt he was looking out for us as we planned our activities. On the day of the trip he ensured that every stop was curated to our interests and energy level and that we didn't have to wait for guides / tables at any point. He also added in very helpful commentary on top of the guides that brought together all the sites. Prashant also went out of his way to help us arrange travel after the tour to our next destination, which we would not have made it to without his help. We would definitely recommend doing a tour with Prashant and his team!

Perfect day-trip to Mysore - We had an amazing time on this tour, it was so well-curated and the right amount of items for a full day trip from Bangalore. Our driver, Sanju, was really prompt and attentive to our needs. Rupesh, the tour guide, was very personable and knowledgeable about all the sites - his explanations really made the experience come alive for us. Highly recommend!

A joy! - The tour was awesome! Prashant was informative. He also knew when to let my daughter and I have time to look around and just be present. Couldn't have asked for better.

Magical Day in South India Palace and Temple - Really enjoyed day out with Yogesh my driver and tour manager. He couldn’t have been more helpful. It’s a long day and he really made sure that I was comfortable.
We struggled a bit with communication but that wasn’t a problem because I was handed over to some excellent guides at the Temple and Mysore Palace. Yogesh made sure that we were fast tracked which was really important on a very busy Saturday.
Highly recommended.

Mysore Memories - The Summer Palace and Mysore Palace tours were exceptional. Definitely worth the trip! The stops at different vendors/shops so they could sell their products was not good—it felt a little forced on us. Driver and tour guides accents were very difficult to understand especially in large crowds at these tourist sites. Regardless, I would do the Summer Palace and Mysore Palace again. Definitely worth any trip to the Karnataka state!

Royal rip off - This was organized rip off. Several tourist traps set one after another with the driver kind enough to get us to all of them. Not worth it
