Very educational tour - Shyam was the best, I’ve learned a lot from this tour. As a Buddhist, it’s been so privilege to be at the site where Buddha gave his first sermon. The site itself was historic and atmosphere was amazing. I’d highly to recommend this tour to everyone.

Amazing tour with Shyam! - I really enjoyed the trip. Our guide Shyam had a lot of interesting facts to share and took the time to answer all of our questions in great detail. Within the 3 hours tour we covered many topics and learned a lot about Buddhism. The best tour I had so far on my trip through India. I wish we would have had more time to go deeper into thr topics of mindfulness and meditation.
