A fantastic afternoon at the India/Pakistan border. - I hadn't intended to visit the border. However, when I decided to take up the option, I thought that doing so with the benefit of a guide was best. This was the case.
My guide, Amrik Singh, established contact early on and then maintained it around the arrangements for pickup and for attending the event the following afternoon.
Amrik proved to be reliable in picking me up when he said, in a comfortable and well-maintained vehicle, which he drove responsibly and in securing my access to
the event and ensuring I got back to my hotel safely. Throughout, he was communicative, courteous, and highly professional in providing information about the event and also generally about Amritsar and Sikhism. He also ensured my safety and well-being and checked and gave me information about things like the availability of toilets and hydration and also the potential risk from hawkers.
The event itself at the border was a fabulous opportunity to be both entertained and informed about the relationship between India and Pakistan. All those involved, the men and women of the Indian and Pakistan armed forces, were fun to be with and were all great performers.
I am pleased that I went.

Unusual event. - The event was quite unusual, although a bit loud for my terms. The guide was very friendly and accommodating. The driver could be relied on.

5/5! Excellent! Would recommend - Immense, magical.
These guys honestly thought about all your needs. Water or a cold drink? Tick. Want a place to buy street food? Tick
Amkit was so knowledgeable and so kind and so lovely.
They took us around the temple and into the langar and all the little places you wanted a guide or local to take you.
Car was clean and air conditioned.
Would definitely recommend to all family and friends

Pride and joy at flag lowering ceremony - It was great to see the passion, pride and excitement of the very large crowd that gathered for the flag lowering ceremony. There was also humour.
Our guide was informative and helpful.

Never experienced anything like it before - Before coming to Amristar, me and my best friend and were unsure if we wanted to go to see the border closing, but after a last-minute booking, we are both so glad that we did.
If you are in amristar, it is definitely worth going to cermony as it is unlike anything you would experience in the West.
Ravish, our guide, was fantastic, and so was our driver. Ravish was waiting for us at the pick-up point, so we left early, and he took care of everything.
On the car journey there, he explained many things that you would be hard push to find information on and was very willing to answer any of our questions.
Once at the boarder, he made it effortless for us to get through all the crowds, and it resulted in a stress and hassle free experience, which is extremely rare in India. Due to us getting there early, we got to watch the pre-cermony and had fantastic seats to watch it all.
Afterwards, Ravish waiting for us and took us back to our hotel. Would definitely recommend booking with Ravish for the best experience going to the boarder cermony.

Excellent tour of the Wagah Border - This was a family tour with 11 people. The temp traveller mini bus arrived at the hotel on time. It was a clean and tidy. There was water provided through the trip which was very welcome as it was a really hot day. The tour guide Amrik was very good and was knowledge about the history of Amritsar and the various sights that we passed on the way to the border. Amrik was good at keeping the group together and making sure we knew exactly where we were going as it was very busy at the border. We all felt very safe knowing that Amrik was with us. The border ceremony was amazing. The atmosphere was electric and everyone had a really enjoyable time. I would thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a Wagah Border tour.

Wagah Border Trip - A Must Visit Place - Traveling and coordinating with 8 family members, including two elderly ladies, is never easy, but I felt absolute ease during this trip coordinated by Amrit Singh ji. The vehicle was big and spacious and he picked us up on time. He ensured to arrange carts for my mother and mother in law to the venue. Overall we had a tremendous time together, and enjoyed thoroughly without worrying about transportation. Thank you Amorik.

Wagah border trip - We had a really good time at the wagah attari border celebration. The guide ravish was very knowledgeable. He answered all of our questions patiently. Our flight got delayed arriving in amritsar but he came directly to our hotel and picked us up and took us for lunch before the wagah border.
