Whirlwind tour with a great guide - We had a great time today seeing the highlights around Mysuru. We were taken on whirlwind adventure by Shivn, a Mysuru local. Shivn was a brilliant guide; fun, very knowledgeable and passionate about his city. Could not rate h higher
The highlight was lunch at a local restaurant, before seeing the palace: wow!
Highly recommend this tour.

Wonderful Experience and Trip to Mysore - The tour guide , Shiva was awesome. He took lot of time and effort to explain each and every detail about the monuments we visited. He took great pictures for our family at all the spots. He guided us to authentic South Indian food place which was clean and hygiene and cost effective. He also took us to do local shopping for Mysore Pak and Mysore Silk Sarees. Will recommend Shiva as a guide for Mysore trip to everyone
Also, we got a very good driver , Shiv Kumar. He was very nice and drove with patience and made sure we had a comfortable ride. The car was maintained very well and had basic stuff like sanitizer, wet wipes, tissue paper etc. I would recommend Shiv Kumar as your driver for every trip.
