Amazing tour of Old Pune with Sanket - Excellent tour with Sanket, he shared a lot of stories about Pune and India, and took us to the main temples and markets in Pune. Although the streets were crowded, we managed our way to the side streets less crowded and in the shadows. We also tried local delicacies and sweets, and Sanket was great helping us with our shopping. We can only recommend this great tour with him.

Discovering Pune’s Charm with a Knowledgeable Guide! - I had a fantastic experience on the Pune Walking Tour with a local Punekar! Despite it being Republic Day and the area being quite crowded, our guide expertly navigated us through the bustling streets and made the tour enjoyable. Unfortunately, we couldn't enter the palace due to the high number of visitors, but thanks to our guide's deep knowledge and connections, we were able to access other temples and historical buildings even outside of regular hours. The food experience was another highlight – tasting local delicacies and exploring the vibrant market was both fun and insightful. The guide’s passion for Pune’s history and culture truly made the tour special. I highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to explore Pune from a local’s perspective!

Great walking tour - I enjoyed the walking tour! Sanket was a great tour guide. He had lots to share about the history and modern day Pune. The old city is very challenging to navigate by oneself. Sanket made it great!
