A day trip to MySore - Shiva and Manjunath are very helpful and friendly to give us a very pleasant trip to MySore. Shiva is knowledgeable about the history and culture and Manjunath drives us safely everywhere. We tried Indian Southern cuisine on a leaf for lunch and it was tasteful. We had a great time on this tour.

Nice one day trip to Mysore - One day trip in which you will visit many interesting places. Somanthapur temple, Tipu Sultan summer palace, Mysore Palace, Filomena's Church and Mysore local market, all in a ~12 hours trip. Everything was included, no queue lines and private tour guides. Mysore palace is breathtaking. We took a break for lunch, which was also included, and it was great and authentic. My driver Manjunath was really nice and helpful. My recommendation is to take this tour during weekdays for a better experience with less crowds.

The guide was a good storyteller! I learned a lot! - The historical facts from the guide were really interesting and in-depth, and elevated the experience. There was also a lot of really beautiful and technically impressive art that was great to look at. There was a lot of walking around barefoot in some dusty areas so I recommend wearing shoes that are easy to put on and remove and that you don’t mind getting a little dirty.

Sriringapatnam custom tour - Kumal and Mohan were very friendly and knew their material! Mohan drove me to Sriringapatnam from my hotel and Kumal gave me a very thorough overview of the history with all the details I wanted. 10/10 would do it again!!

Remarkable day out in Mysore - The Mysore tour was an amazing experience. We got pickrd up right from out hotel lobby by well mannered english speaking guide. We visited the amazing Mysore Palace and was swooned by its grandeur and charm. Our guide explained very well and told us the stories behind significant events. The Palace of Tipu had an outstanding collection of paintings of his war with the British. We learnt so much about his smart war fare and pioneering usage of rockets for warfare. We also enjoyed the visits to to reamrkable Gothic church. The bazaar walk at the end was lively and gave us a true flvour of today's Mysore.
