This trip or tour, is basically a pick and drop from the hotel to Auroville and back. No guide and no written matter too. It is cheaper to hire a taxi and go to Auroville. I felt cheated. The driver was good and courteous, and drove well, but could barely speak English or Hindi. Best to avoid this trip.
