I had booked the private tour of Royal Mysore with Five senses tours and we had Satish as our guide. It was an amazing day. Satish was a fantastic person with immence knowledge. He was also very caring and took very good care of us who were all first time visitors in India. Mysore was incredible and the palace is no less than Taj Mahal. We also saw other parts of this old kingdom like the old bazaar and few more palaces. The lunch was fingerlicking. Satish had suggested traditional Mysore meals and it was a great experience. Go ahead and book this whenever you are in India! Fully recommended.

Belur & Halebid temples have one of the finest collection of sculptures in India. The sculptures are fantastic in terms of the intricacy of the carvings. Best exemplifies by the bracelets on the arms of one of the dancer statues can be moved up and down! Another noteworthy characteristic of sculptures in Belur is that sculptures at Belur is that they are signed off by the respective sculptors like in a painting, often as a boastful epithet. Our cultural evangelist will take you back in time to the 12th century to relive the glory days of this Kingdom.

Paid & confirmed Wed, Feb 05, 2020 2 Adults INR Rs 13,153.20 BookingreferenceBR-770485706 11Feb2020 DearSirs: We had booked our Hampi City Tour, for which you have charged Rs. 6576.50 per person. I had booked this trip for my husband and self. We are senior citizen and we paid this amount assuming it was a package tour with other tourists in a bus or car, with the travel guide,taking us around comfortably. We were shocked and cheated by the trip. First of all a rickshaw came to pick us up from our hotel and we assumed he was taking us to the bus, instead he said he was driver/guide and in this rickshaw he would be taking us around and showing us Hampi city. We complained to the tour operator Devansh Chaurasiya, that no guide was there and we have paid Rs.13,150 for this trip and this is totally cheating. After two halts, a guide, Mr. Rajesh appeared in bike and showed us around. This guide was talking and explaining in Hindi. For tourists, dont you think the guide should be speaking in English??. We were taken to most of the places mentioned by Mr. Chaurasiya but we did not want to climb up Matanga Hill. Previous night we had visited Virupaksha Temple and hence the guide did not want to take us there again because rituals was going on. We should have been taken there to see in the day time. We were dropped back to our hotel at 4 pm. Previous day, we arrived in Hampi at 7 o clock in the morning. Local driver took us to our hotel and he informed that for a day trip across Tungabadra would cost us Rs.1500/- and full day trip around Hampi city would cost us around Rs. 3000/- to Rs.4000/- in rickshaw, showing all the sites as mentioned by you. We took the day trip across Tungabadra costing us Rs.1500/- for my husband and self in the rickshaw. At this cost, we started at 9.30am, we were taken crossing Tungabdra river, first to Anjani Hill climbing up 575 steps to see the Hanuman temple, then went to Pampasarowara to see the Durga Temple, moved on to Anegundhi to seen Ranganath Temple, Vishnu Temple and the wooden chariot. We were then taken to Sanepur lake and were boating in bamboo boat for half an hour. We returned back to our hotel at 4pm. For the full above rickshaw trip for both of us, we paid only Rs.1500/-. You have taken Rs. 13153.20/- for the Hampi city tour for two people in one rickshaw, which costs only Rs.3000 - Rs.4000/-. We paid Entry and admission fees at the various monuments. You have given us 2 water bottles. We had veg lunch at small hotel at Kamalapuram where our meals (Rs.350/)- was paid by you. You have cheated and fleeced us. You have to return us the extra charges you have taken from us,

The hanging pillar in the temple hall is a marvel of ancient structural engineering. The other highlight is the mystery of Giants who as per legends were supposed to have built the old sections of the temple.

100% would book this again with Bangs 'n' Memories (BnM). Bangalore Tour by Tuk Tuk, organized by Bags 'n' Memories (BnM) was the perfect day trip tour around Bangalore. We looked over a number of trips for our sole day in Bangalore, and here's all the reasons why this is the best option: 1- Tuk Tuk: with the insane traffic in Bangalore (even by India standards), the Tuk Tuk provides the extra flexibility, manoeuvrability, and compactness to drive and park anywhere! If you go in a car, get ready to hit traffic jams. 2- They organized admission to all sites: Everything was paid up front, and then it BnM handled getting our tickets and we never had to worry about cash. If you are travelling a lot, you'll really appreciate having no worries during the day, as BnM take care of it all! 3- They organized an perfect authentic lunch! And it was perfect. :-) We had come from a co-workers wedding outside Bangalore and the lunch BnM organized was spot on perfect, just like the meals we had all week. 4- They were flexible in start/finish time, adjusted the tour to our schedule. We were bogged down from late travel the night before, but they adjusted to help us out. Really, You should go with this :-) Tuk Tuk tour is 100% the way to go. Plus it's fun and authentic to bomb around an Indian City in a Tuk Tuk!! And Bags 'n' Memories really put thought into how to help foreigns and travellers get around easily. These guys are professionals, helpful, friendly, and know what you're worried about. 100% Will Book Again.
