Great experience of a blend of history with local flavours. Dipti is very knowledgeable and infused the walk with very many anecdotes. It was a very pleasant 3 hours spent in old Bangalore.

My colleague and I took this tour during our one week business trip to Bangalore. Our guide Navitha was incredibly kind and shared lots of interesting things about the temples and markets we were seeing. We went to a Dosa place, the flower market, and the summer palace, and had a great time. Navitha took us to places we wouldn't have thought of going as tourists, and we felt very safe and taken care of. :) We would definitely recommend taking this tour if you want to get a taste of Bangalore's history!

What an amazing way to see Bangalore! So much history, so many stories! A big thank you to Deepti. I would never have been able to do this tour in my own. A privilege to be able to learn about the long history and the way the locals live their day to day lives in this amazing city. Thanks Deepti for a great tour.

We loved the tour! Bangalore is such a busy and bustling place, it was fantastic to have a guide as lovely as Deepti to show us around. The depth of her knowledge of the area was impressive and we enjoyed hearing the history of the market area.

An interesting and fun walk through parts of Bengaluru that we would not have discovered without our this tour. It was a good choice to walk since it gave us a better feeling for the geography of the old town and a closeness to the people, monkeys, cows and dogs we met. We could smell, taste, touch and hear the vibrant streets of the old town! Our engaged, insightful and attentive guide Deepti took us to the old parts of Bengaluru, invited us to traditional breakfast and showed us the incredibly colorful, lively and interesting flower market as well as other markets, the fort and interesting spots to see. She gave us many well told stories about Bengaluru’s past and present and indeed a deeper understanding of what has shaped this exciting city.

Fantastic walk along with the perfect guide Deepti. She was knowledgeable, funny and interesting. This walk took us to places we probably wouldn't have visited otherwise. The flower market was fantastic to visit. When we were at the wedding the next day and got to see these made it even more interesting. To see them tie these garlands- impressive. Interesting to hear the story of Bangalore and people who have been here.
