You will not regret it and it is well deserved - Highly recommended. My best experience and guide during my whole trip in Rajastan. Manish is a great storyteller. He provides you info in a simple and structured way that you will remember for ever and at the end you will feel wiser and educated. Manish is kind, courteous, reliable, and polite. I felt comfortable and the activities are memorable. I was so happy with my tour guide that I booked him twice for extra activities both in morning and afternoon.

EXCELLENT - Manish is the best guide you can have in Pushkar. He is very professional and explains many interesting things about Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. The tour was excellent through the temples and streets of Pushkar, taking us into the culture of India and Pushkar. The tour ends with a visit to the Brahma temple and then with a ritual (if the person wants) in the sacred lake, something I 100% recommend. Simply excellent.
