I highly recommend Tornos if you are visiting Lucknow. Our guide Narayan and our driver Ali were fantastic. The two day visit allowed us to discover many aspects of the city (main monuments, historical background, religious aspects and also street food!). Visiting the city with a very knowledgeable guide added a lot to the experience. Already looking forward to coming back.

I am from middle east - the land of flat breads. Indians have taken those flat breads and invented so many varieties, it is truly eye opening. This food tour is something that i will remember for life. The kebabs and the curry was awesome. Biryani fabulous. Halwa mouth watering. So many dishes I even forgot the name. Stories of city, the in-depth knowledge of the food and the history added additional sweetener to the tour. I didn't feel like guest rather felt a local travelling with friend laughing eating and enjoying.
