My husband and I booked this tour as a way to learn some of the history of the city. “Jolly Jon”, our tour guide, picked us up in a car with a driver and took us to see the fort and nearby tombs of the royal family. Absolutely fascinating! Jon is passionate about sharing the history of his city and country. We were really able to envision life in the fort and surrounding area. This was a tour we won’t forget and would highly recommend.
Tour was happy with my friends will back soon again

Anand and Mujeeb were amazing. They explained the history of everything we passed on the tour. They were extremely accommodating and wonderfully friendly. The experience was once in a lifetime and they knocked it out of the park. If I could give them 10 stars it wouldn’t be enough. Anand seemed to know everyone and it made the tour so comfortable.
Good experience in Hyderabad

I enjoyed the trip a lot, and this guided tour was a great opportunity to learn more about the history of the place, and get a great view over the city. Even though I booked only the evening before, my guide picked me up at the hotel the next morning. He was very friendly and knowledgeable.
Highly recommend!

Really enjoyable and informative tour. I would highly recommend this, and if I return to India I will be using this company for future tours. Special call out to our tour guide, Sashi, who was extremely knowledgable and accommodating. She has been guiding tours in Hyderabad for 22 years, and it showed! Even though it was rainy we still had a great experience at the Fort and Tombs. Both are definitely well worth a visit and have a rich history.
Very interesting history guided tour
