Jodhpur Private Tour - Sandeep gave an excellent private tour of Jodhpur with his local knowledge taking us to not only the main attractions but also some not so well known. We had a great day and can thoroughly recommend 10/10.

Excellent day trip - First stop was a guided tour of the amazing Mehrangarh fort. Excellent views over the blue city. Then on to Jaswant Thada, a memorial to the maharajas. Next was Umaid Bhawan Palace, an enormous ex palace, now one of the most prestigious hotels in the world. The guide then took us to an excellent restaurant for a tali lunch. This was followed by a walk to the clock tower, and then Toorjis stepwell as requested by us. The guide was a very pleasant and knowledgeable man, with beautiful manners. A really pleasure to spend the day with

95 - Mehrangarh fort was awesome. The entire town gives a heritage look. City siteseeing was wonderfully arranged with personal touch by the guide Mr Sandeep and driver Mushtaq. Sandeep ji could add value by his detais on the history associated with the places we visited. It was a very comfortable tour with elders and kid in the family with us. I strongly recommend the crew for planning family trips to this region.

Excellent tour company, excellent guide - I had a wonderful full-day tour of Jodhpur with Nikita Holidays. The tour company is very professional and well-run. The day I booked my tour, I was contacted via WhatsApp and given a confirmation of my booking with my TripAdvisor booking reference number, a confirmation of the pick-up time, the name and phone number of the driver as well as the license plate for his car, and the name and phone number of the guide. They confirmed my pick-up and drop-off location as well. It was wonderful to have all of that information without even having to ask! My guide, Nagendra, was great! The driver, Aam, was very professional. Nagendra knew the answer to every question I asked, and never tried to rush or hurry me through any of the sites. We went to every site listed on the booking, and he also took me to a very interesting and fun antique market and fabric store. I loved that extra stop! I told Nagendra that I was interested in buying spices to bring home, and he took me to a fantastic spice shop where I had a lovely time and conversation. Since I was only one person, the tour was shorter than the full 8 hours. I feel like it was the perfect length for me- probably around 6 hours. I will say, I did not particularly enjoy the lunch that was offered on the tour. I think it would be a great spot for families or larger groups- it was definitely geared toward tourists, so its menu was wide and would be able to satisfy even picky eaters. The atmosphere was beautiful, but the food was bland. That's my only complaint, and it still wasn't enough to make me want to lower my review.

Great Insight - We booked a full day tour of Jodhpur but at the last min reschedule for an afternoon tour instead. Our tour guide Sandeep Singh was able to accommodate our request and met up in the afternoon. Sandeep was full of information on the history of Jodhpur. You can ask him anything and he would have answers for everything. We learned a lot and enjoy our time in tour. We will certainly use this company again.

Wonderful trip - Highly recommended to all, its value for money.so many places to visit in Jodhpur like magnificent Mehrangarh fort, Jaswant Thada it's called tajmahal of Marwar,umed bhawan place.(youngest palace in the world and number one hotel in the world )best example of deco as well as one of the biggest private property in the world , one more place to visit is 9 km far from Jodhpur (old capital of Marwar is called mandore,amazing memorials to see over there,the best example of carving ). Jodhpur is very much specialized for antiques , handicrafts, embroideries textile and amazing Kundan jewellery. One of the best town in the world. Thank you Nikita holidays.
