Let Peter Be Your Guide! - What a fabulous time we had on our city tour of Bangalore! Peter was a fantastic guide - born and raised in Bangalore and passionate about his home town. We visited Bangalore Palace, Lalbaugh Gardens, Bull Temple, art museum, tech museum, and ISCON Temple. We are a delicious lunch and even has ronw for some shopping on commercial street! He was knowledgeable and fun, deeply knowledgeable and fantastically flexible. Our wish was his command in the best of ways. I've never had a guide for above and beyond to the degree Peter did, even sending a souvenir I wanted for my kids to my hotel when I was unsuccessful bargaining for it. Also, as two ladies travelling Peter kept us safe and secure, we never worried when under his care. You really can't do better!

Good tour to see the city highlights - The guide (Peter) was very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. He adjusted the itinerary to match my interests and preferences, and sequenced stops requiring more outdoor exploring to beat the rain in the afternoon. I would have given five stars, but took one off because the confirmation information provided instructions to call the merchant to confirm hotel pick up details, but the phone number provided was not operational. This created some stress for me the day before as I could not be sure the tour was on. I did some some research to find their website and FB page, with the former not operational and the latter having no activity since 2020. Note that there have been on reviews of this particular tour and only two reviews for the company since 2020.

Good city, bad tour - Good to explore around the city attraction but the guide could have provided more introductory sharing. Instead we rush to each spot, like 5mins in some of the spots, it feels like the guide just wants to finish the journey asap. The tour starts at 10ish and the guide leaves us at 3ish. What’s worse is they want to charge us for the airport drop while we are way ahead of schedule and it has never been agreed. And this is right after i gave them tips in the airport. The tour doesn’t give us a good impression at all. I am not sure if I will go with tour in this app moving forward.

Overpriced for a short 3 hour tour - Definitely not worth the $ I paid. It was short although the guide tried to make the best of it. The places were not really that interesting, The museums do not allow photo taking and the exhibits were not well laid out. Bangalore is a place for business and not for tourism

Not a great experience - Even though the guide knows a lot of history and the places, he was always in a hurry. A thing that I did not like at all is that at some point of the tour he made me stop into a shopping center in Bangalore, which was ridiculously expensive. I felt forced into it and felt robbed by the prices. This is very unethical, not acceptable and not professional. Definitely I won't book more guided tours with you.
