- Rani Ki vav - Rani-ki-Vav, situated along the Saraswati River, began as a tribute to a monarch in the 11th century AD. Stepwells are unique underground water management systems in the Indian subcontinent, originating from around the 3rd millennium BC. They progressed from basic pits in sandy terrain to intricate multi-storey structures, representing the pinnacle of stepwell and Maru-Gurjara architectural styles. Rani-ki-Vav exemplifies this mastery, designed as an inverted temple emphasizing water’s sanctity, with seven levels of intricately carved stairs featuring over 500 principal sculptures and numerous minor ones depicting religious, mythological, and secular themes, often drawn from literature. The fourth level descends to a 9.5m x 9.4m tank, 23m deep, while the well’s shaft, 10m in diameter and 30m deep, lies at the property’s westernmost point. This site showcases the evolution of stepwells into artistic marvels blending functionality with aesthetic grandeur.

Great day trip - Mr. Ravi showed up on time in a clean car. He was a careful driver and respectful at all times. Kept us updated on which site we were going to. Both, the Vav and Modhera temple are worth going to. Well maintained sites set in lush manicured lawns.

Sun temple and Patan - Good service and the driver was experienced with comfort being the main focus. We had great conversation along the way and it was enriching to have different point of view about simple things in life.

Excellent trip with experienced driver - Pick up and drop off from the hotel. 7 hours private tour without any issues. Driver was very friendly and skilled in driving - sometimes it was very crowded - cars, tuk tuks, people, cows, dogs. He made all trip safely. I highly recommended this company

Decent option for one day trip outside Amdavad. - I have mixed feelings about this private tour. On the positive side, the trip was well-organized and we followed the itinerary exactly as planned. However,as I was said for a "premium" service, but we were given a basic compact car. While it had A/C, it was not the ‘premium’ vehicle.
Overall, we are quite satisfied with the tour.

Great sites, ‘tour’ just a taxi - Sun temple was great. Really interesting history and beautiful site. The Rav Ki Vav step well was amazing - highly recommend - like a temple but in the ground rather than going up! Fascinating. I do think the £75 charge for ‘tour’ which is basically just a taxi - no food, no admittance fees etc - is a bit misleading. It should be called ‘we book you a taxi to x and y’ !

Poor experience! Late and unsafe! - This was a very disappointing experience. First, there was unclear communication with the driver. We were waiting almost 30 minutes for the driver and then learned he had been at the hotel waiting outside. We would have expected him to come into the lobby at our reserved time to meet us. Next, the car was very poor quality and unsafe. The seatbelts were not working and the driver was unconcerned about this. Frankly, this is unacceptable. We ended up getting out of the car and cancelling the tour.
