Learnt so much and met lovely people. Mr Matta was very helpful and thoughtful.

Hyderabad old town - A very good experience. We were picked up from the hotel and taken to the sites,with a little bit of walking in-between. We had a lovely guide who was very knowledgeable. The cost was very reasonable compared to other sites. I would definitely recommend this tour 😀

Decent walking tour. - Decent walking tour. I actually expected something else such as touring an old neighborhood, alleyways,etc. Maybe I should have read the notice more carefully. It was a pleasant enough tour of Hyderabad main monuments, palaces, etc. Lots of history delivered in the local brand of English. Nice guide eager to please. Glad we did go.
