5.00We had a lovely day with Chakshu on the ashram walking tour. He was so patient and allowed us to stop in many stores along the way. He offered insight and history into the different ashrams, purchased water and Chai for us during some stops, and his English was perfect. During the tour we discovered the Beatles ashram was closed because of updated winter hours. He was fast to recommend another temple to visit instead and we hiked up to Bhootnath Temple and had a wonderful experience. The tour concluded with an amazing Arrti Ganga experience and Chakshu stayed with us for the entire 90 minute celebration, advising us when to leave and beat the crowds. Highly recommend this tour. Thank you Chakshu!

5.00Dinesh was an excellent guide, not only was he very knowledgeable about all the sites, he gave a lot of flexibility, patience, and attention to detail. I’m not in the best shape and he didn’t mind taking breaks for me and even got us extra water. It was a really special experience and I wouldn’t highly recommend the tour, and especially Dinesh as a guide. 🙏🏻
Amazing walking tour

5.00Sunny was a fantastic guide and felt like an instant friend. He explained things so clearly and the tour was the perfect pace. We didn’t have long in Rishikesh so this was perfect to dive straight in. Would highly recommend!

5.00Sunny guided us through the famous ghats, where we witnessed the mesmerizing Ganga Aarti ceremony—a truly spiritual experience. We also strolled along the iconic Laxman Jhula, enjoying beautiful views of the Ganges and surrounding hills. Sunny’s passion for Rishikesh and his friendly, approachable nature made the tour feel like a journey with a friend rather than a guide. It was an unforgettable experience, and I’d highly recommend Sunny to anyone visiting Rishikesh!

5.00A walking tour of Rishikesh offers a unique blend of spirituality, culture, and natural beauty. Start your journey at the iconic Triveni Ghat, where pilgrims perform daily rituals on the banks of the Ganges. As you stroll along the river, feel the serenity of the sacred waters and the sight of devotees offering prayers. Walk through narrow lanes lined with yoga centers, spiritual shops, and colorful ashrams, where you can catch glimpses of spiritual teachings and ancient traditions. My guide sunny was best to show around.
