Fabulous Amritsar visit!! - We had an amazing 2 days in Amritsar! Narinder and Deepak were incredible, hospitable and knowledgeable tour guides and made sure our visit was truly special! They went out of their way to accommodate us, given that we were a multi-generational group - they arranged for us to visit the golden temple at different times to view the temple complex under different light conditions etc. They told us about the rich history of Amritsar and the temple in a way that was interesting and informative! We also had a fantastic time at the Wagah border, and the ceremony there was both entertaining and unique. And the visit to the Jalianwala Bagh complex and the Partition Museum was a walk through time to some of the darkest chapters in the history of Indian independence.
They went over and above what had been promised on the tour - when we wanted to sample local sweets and foods, they took us to a place that was known for this, and when we wanted to add an early morning 4 am viewing of the temple and Guru Granth Sahib ceremony to the itinerary, they organized this for us as well! And our driver Kulvinder, who picked us up and dropped us off at the airport, and who was with us throughout, was courteous, and prompt! Visiting Amritsar is a must do bucket list item, and I would highly recommend Narinder and his team if you want to visit this beautiful city!

The best experience in India - I was lucky enough to meet the best tour guide in the world during my visit to the Golden Temple in Amritsar and the border with Pakistan. I truly don’t have enough words to thank him for the experience he gave us — it was, without a doubt, one of the most moving, unforgettable, and meaningful moments of my life.
With incredible warmth, deep knowledge, and a big heart, he made us feel completely at home every step of the way. Every explanation, every detail, every gesture was filled with passion, respect, and love for his culture.
Thank you for teaching us so much and for giving us a memory that will stay with us forever. I am deeply, deeply grateful!

One of the best experiencies in my life - We had an unforgettable experience thanks to our guide at the Golden Temple. His deep knowledge of history, Sikh culture, and the spiritual significance of the place made the visit truly meaningful. He was patient, clear in his explanations, and very respectful of the sacred environment. He also helped us understand the importance of each ritual and accompanied us warmly throughout. An exceptional job that completely elevated our visit to Amritsar!

Many amazing experiences. - I booked a total of 5 trips with tripadvisor.
My first trip was the Golden Temple Community Kitchen.
I met Narinder near the temple and we first walked around the temple square.
We walked all round the food preparation areas, the scale of the food quantities was amazing.
Narinder was constantly giving me information about the various departments.
The other trips included The Waga Border Ceremony, a village trip, a walk round the Amritsar old town and a day trip to the Harika Wildlife Sactuary.
As a bonus Narinder took me to a trendy air conditioned bar.
The beer and food were excellent.
I found Narinder to be an intelligent and knowledgeable guide.
I can recommend all these trips with Narinder as the guide.
I took many more photos than I would have done if I'd been on my own.

Jaison Kuthanapillil - We were three in the group, we all had a fantastic experience with Narinder our tour guide. He was exceptionally helpful and good. He brought us to every tourist location and explained everything in detail with great patience. It was an amazing experience and I would like to recommend to anyone who would like to visit Amritsar to get in touch with this group and it would be worth every penny you spend. Many thanks to Narinder.

Everything I could expect from a last minute solo trip around Amritsar! - I booked last minute looking for an efficient individual tour to the top sites and was so happy to have chosen this option. Communication, service, information, and flexibility were focused on my preferences and I feel extremely lucky to have had the wonderful day that I did in Amritsar. Take this tour!

Wonderful team ! Highly recommend - We had travelled with teens and seniors with walking difficulty in our group. Before the trip we were quite apprehensive however Narinder and his team made this into one of the most memorable trip for us as a family. They coordinated everything for us - starting from the airport pick , destination travel, guides, and recommendation on restaurant, shopping etc etc. They changed the plans to accommodate different needs of different members with no fuss - it was like they were invested in making this a memorable trip for us .
We did all the major attractions like Golden temple , Wagah border , Jalian wala bagh etc etc and the staff and guides were exceptional with the details. Mandeep made my Golden temple visit one that I will cherish all my life. We enjoyed fabulous food basis their recommendations. The hospitality of Punjab is legendary and the team truly lives upto it.
I had stopped writing reviews but I cannot let this one pass - we found them based on the reviews and they deserve all the accolades. They are truly passionate about what they do and I cannot thank Narinder and his team for curating and making this a wonderful memory for us.
