Best Tour and Mustdo for anyone visiting Amritsar. Safe for Female Solo travelers - After much research on social media on Amritsar 1 day tours options, I came across Planet Amritsar website to see what they are offering. I was travelling solo so thought of going through a tour agent to visit Amritsar. Amrit - tour captain was extremely courteous and prompt in responding to all Whatsapp texts and communications. We started early morning at 4 am to experience the main event at Golden Temple where the Guru Granthsahib is carried at 4.30 am from the abode to the temple. Followed after, Amrit went over a nice easy to listen and exciting history of the Sikhs, Punjabis, and Golden Temple. We toured the kitchens and Langar that is not really open to any tourists. The darshan inside the Golden Temple took over 2.5 hours but going with a spiritual focus is very much required. My experience was surreal and heavenly. After the Golden temple we visited the Jalianwala Bagh and there after we did Ranjit Singh memorial/museum. In the afternoon - we visited a Punjabi family's residence for lunch and some relaxation. Unfortunately, it was raining else we were going to tour the farms on a tractor. This is something I really wanted to do, however cannot mess with Mother Nature. After the afternoon relaxation and some lovely snacks/lunch offered by the Punjabi family - we headed towards the Wagah-Attari Border for the ceremony. Amrit was very informative and provided all information about how to enter the ceremony location with foreign passport to when to leave the premises so as to avoid crowds and everyone exiting the premises with traffic. This has been the best tour I have done at Amritsar. And I will definitely recommend it to all my friends and family especially women/men going Solo as its completely safe and secure knowing Planet Amritsar takes care of all the needs. Thank you , Amrit and keep it going. I will definitely reach out for your other tours being offered especially the HIMALAYAN tour you offer.

Exceptional Amritsar Guide. - Certainly the most enjoyable day I’ve spent in my 3 weeks in India. Amrit was an exceptional guide and host, full of knowledge about Amritsar and Sikhism, and ever ready to find the most interesting and out of the way experiences to fill the senses. I can’t recommend him and Planet Amritsar enough.

Fun times - I had a wonderful experience on this day tour. Things were meticulously planned and well executed. Ram shared many insights about this city, Sikhism, and all places we visited in this tour. He got me the best spots for viewing the night ceremony at the golden temple. He was an excellent company on this tour- very kind, very knowledgeable. Karen was very diligent, responsive and flexible while planning and booking my day tour. Quick responses and always willing to see how he can make my trip and experience better with this tour. Totally recommend and would book with them next time I visit!

Amritsar Full Day Trip. - My full day trip to Amritsar was nothing less than magical . Special shout out to Amrit who was the tour captain. He is extremely knowledgeable and is so passionate about what he does and that’s the trait of a true tour captain. He is punctual, friendly and would make you feel so comfortable. The entire itinerary is so well thought, village farm experience is just cherry on the cake. You will get to hear some amazing historical facts and stories. Trust them and Amrit for an offbeat experience, with a taste of heritage, spirituality, & adventure. Would highly recommend for solo female travellers too.

An amazing experience! - I had an amazing tour of Amritsar with Amrit! Right from pickup to drop off I was entertained and discovered so much about the city, the community and culture. Amrit is a reservoir of knowledge about the history, religion and politics of the place. He took me into the interiors of the Golden temple that regular tourists don't even know about. Kept me regaled with stories, fed me amazing food and took me to his home in the village for a true blue Punjabi experience! He pushed me to drive a tractor on his fields!!! An experience I'll never forget! I feel like I've made a great friend! For anyone visiting Amritsar this tour is a must do! Thank you Amrit for an amazing time! 🙏🙏

Whistlestop tour of Amritsar - We had pre planned our stay in Amritsar with Planet Amritsar. Best decision. Lucky to have Amrit as our guide from airport pickup through to Wagah Border ceremony, street food and heritage walking tour to an extensive tour of the Golden Temple. We were particularly impressed with the way Amrit conveyed the sheer depth of knowledge about every aspect of our tour stops in Amritsar. We will definitely recommend Planet Amritsar to friends and family who plan to visit. Special thanks to Amrit
