Excellent walking tour with Hardik. - We were in Amritsar just for a day , so it was really great to have Hardik as our walking tour guide, He is a great story teller who took us to all the important landmarks around the golden temple, described the architectural history of Amritsar, took us through the hidden lanes of craftsmen, jewellery makers etc. Had a complete taste of Amritsar!!

Quick and local way to discover the city - It was a nice and complete tour. The best part is going through the alleys and discover hidden gems. I recommend this specially for solo travelers because you can meet other people visiting too.

An excellent tour by a great storyteller. - This was a fantastic tour... much more than I was expecting. Prarit is an exceptional storyteller and gives great background and historical context for many of the main attractions, plus many out-of-the-way places that he took me to. I was not expecting some of the "industrial" shops that he took me to (jewelry machining, for example) but these were fascinating. I especially appreciated that he did not take to any shops that would try to sell me things.
Taking this tour is a great way to get an oversight of the city, and then spend more time in places such as the Golden Temple later.
