Fantastic Cultural Experience with a Wonderful Guide - We had an amazing private tour of Hyderabad! Our guide, Mohan, was very friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. He made sure we were comfortable throughout the day and tailored the experience to our interests. His English skills were excellent, which made communication smooth and easy. We didn’t have lunch but enjoyed authentic Irani chai, buns, and biscuits at a local spot — a great experience in itself! We learned so much about the city’s history, culture, and daily life. I highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting a deeper and more personal experience of Hyderabad!

Very memorable day in Hyderabad! - Very nice and friendly tourguide, very helpful, he showed us a city, took us to most important landmarks and we also had a chance to try chai tea, and some local cookies, all included in a price, lunch was delicious. Ride on a bus was also a nice experience, we had a chance to see Indian way of life. I can honestly recommend this trip. Awesome experience!

Awesome day - Very nice tour guide. Interestings facts about the city. The lounch at the end of day was very nice. Very good expirience for this price. Definitely worth it :)

Hyderabad trip - Perfect trip, guide was very kind. The Hyderabad tour was fantastic! I had an amazing time exploring the historical sites and vibrant culture of the city. Our guide was knowledgeable and shared fascinating insights into the rich heritage. From the majestic Charminar to the impressive Golconda Fort, every stop was captivating. The local cuisine was also a highlight

Great tour of Hyderabad! - Highly recommend this tour if you want to see the main sights of Hyderabad. The tour was well organised and followed a well thought out schedule. My guide, Santosh, was friendly, knowledgeable and spoke perfect English. Sharing a cup of Irani chai and some freshly baked cookies was the highlight of the day!

Excellent tour with very knowledgeable guide. - An excellent tour round some highlights of Hyderabad. My guide Murthy was very knowledgeable and articulate about the history of each place we visited. Murthy was also extremely considerate of my age and very patient in terms of taking time to make some of the more arduous climbs (Goloconda Fort). His combination of great knowledge and equal kindness made for a truly exceptional and memorable tour. Murthy also helpfully pointed out other places of interest as we travelled so that I can visit at a later date. And lunch was great! A first class tour. Thank you Murthy!

Great visit to Hyderabad - This visit was part of our third private tour with 5 Senses (first tour, So. India for a month; second No. India for 5.5 weeks; third East and South India, one month). You might have guessed that we are very happy with the company. All three tours were fantastic, this one no exception. There is not a lot to see in Hyderabad, but it's still worth a tour (especially if you're there for work and have a free weekend). John, our 5 Senses local guide, was very good. Don't miss his "tea stall visit" in the market--you won't forget it! The primary strength of 5 Senses is its people. The owner, Mr. Narayanan, is a great travel planning partner (he’ll work with you to craft exactly the trip you want) and he is super-responsive during trips if any problems arise. I am confident that Narayanan will fix it if it needs fixing—he has helped us several times in that way, and he has done it quickly. The state-based “cultural ambassadors” he has recruited (the guides who accompany you for days, across multiple sites) are excellent and soon become friends. For this month-long tour, I’d particularly like to call out Kannan (Tamil Nadu) and Mohan, and Chandra Shekar (Karnataka). If you are touring other parts of the country, we highly recommend Balwinder (Punjab and Rajasthan) and Vivek and Ram Sewak (Varanasi, Khajuraho and environs). It is basically a fool’s errand to try to price shop local tour operators—there are too many variables, including the type of accommodation, the quality of guides and the quality of transport (both of which can’t be assessed ahead of time). That said, over the course of the three tours, we feel that 5 Senses has been very good value for money. And I can say for certain that you would pay three times as much for the same Smithsonian or Nat Geo or other corporate tour, plus you’d be on a bus with many other folks and stuck with the group schedule. With 5 Senses you’re in your own car deciding where and when you want to go, where you want to eat, and when you want to take it easy. My advice to friends looking for a private tour in India is “don’t bother contacting other companies, just talk to 5 Senses. You won’t regret it.”

Incredible Hyderabad full day tour - Amazing tour with Mohan. He was extremely knowledgeable and planned the tour very well. Highly recommend, especially if you are in Hyderabad for a limited amount of time.

Exceptional Hyderabad Tour with Nagaraj! - We had an amazing tour of Hyderabad with our guide, Nagaraj. From the very beginning, his warm hospitality and deep knowledge of the city made our experience truly unforgettable. He provided fascinating insights into Hyderabad’s rich history, culture, and local traditions, making every stop incredibly informative and engaging. Nagaraj ensured we experienced the city like a local, taking us to hidden gems and authentic spots we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. His recommendations for food, shopping, and sightseeing were spot on! Plus, his photography skills were an added bonus—he captured some fantastic moments for us throughout the tour. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, friendly, and professional guide in Hyderabad, look no further than Nagaraj. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to explore the city in an authentic and immersive way!
