5.00Was very easy and convenient to book. Reliable and punctual pickup at the hotel (if within 5km range of starting point). Our tour guide Lohit was super nice and spoke very well English. Would definitely book again.

4.00Lohit was a great guide and spoke excellent English. He took us on a tuk-tuk and walking tour of the real Bangalore. Definitely went to places we would never dare to venture without a guide. The food stop at LNR was also interesting. A good tour; quite expensive but felt secure

5.00Sandra was absolutely brilliant; full of knowledge and so passionate. The tour was the perfect balance of intimate and informing, she took the time to get to know us but also ensured that we saw the highlights of the city. Western travellers, make sure that you know how hectic the Indian cities are and what to expect: it was an onslaught on all senses but we totally loved it!

5.00A great day out with two really informative and fun guides. Learned so much about Bengaluru and life in India in general. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is limited on time and wants to see the sights/find out a bit more about life here. Highlights were definitely the palace, the lunch and travelling in the tuk tuk 😊

5.00Had an amazing Tuk Tuk tour in Bangalore with Punnet! Loved exploring the colorful flower market watching silk-dyeing, and visiting beautiful temples. Such a fun and authentic way to see the city!
A historical and authentic introduction to Bangalore 🇮🇳🪷

5.00I was lucky to be in the company of Ajith, who turned out to be a real pleasure to explore the more local and authentic Bangalore with. He was great at communicating and answering any follow-up questions I had. He made sure to include me in his historical presentations, which contributed to a good and pleasant atmosphere during our hours together. I wanted to experience the local Bangalore and this tour contributes to that through its stops where the time inbetween is spent in rickshaws, which is a must try when visiting this country 🇮🇳
An unforgettable tuk tuk adventure. If you just do one Bangalore tour, make it this one!

5.00I had my French family visiting, along with a friend travelling from the US, and we decided to experience Bangalore with Unventured – what an unforgettable choice! 🌟 We are absolutely overjoyed with the Tuk Tuk tour. Our guide, Midhu, was warm, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. She went above and beyond right from the start, even helping us secure cabs when it felt almost impossible. With two children under 10 in tow, we felt so well cared for the entire day. The tour itself was a wonderful mix of history, culture, and local life. We explored the remnants of Tipu Sultan’s palace, stepped into a 15th century temple to learn about the Hindu way of life, and wandered through the most fragrant flower market imaginable. Midhu’s storytelling brought each stop alive as she shared history through engaging stories, which kept both the adults and children captivated. We then wound our way through lively bazaars filled with spices, textiles, and treasures, before stepping into a Scottish Presbyterian Kirk, home to a 150 year old pipe organ. An unexpected highlight was visiting a Kali temple, where dogs, goats, and ravens stood watch over the graves. a A hauntingly atmospheric stop we will never forget. The day also included snacks of exotic fruit along the way and a delicious, hearty South Indian brunch at a hidden old Bangalore eatery that we’d never have found on our own. The tuk tuk rides were a delight in themselves, the children absolutely loved them, and for us adults they were the perfect way to soak in the city’s vibrancy. There were so many incredible moments that I can’t possibly cover them all in one review, but what I can say is this; if you are going to do just one tour in Bangalore, make it this one. We truly couldn’t have experienced the city this way without Unventured’s help, and we are so grateful to Midhu for making the day so memorable. Highly recommended for families, friends, and solo travellers who want to discover the real heart of Bangalore.

5.00I travelled solo today with Midhu. We had the best time together visiting the sights. She is incredibly sweet and has vast knowledge of the city. She was incredibly gracious answering all my questions. Our driver was amazing at negotiating the traffic with skill and safety. Thank you so much Midhu for a wonderful day spent creating many happy memories during my time in Bangalore.
