Free tours a Udaipur

We’ve done Guru Walks in other countries and they never disappoint - today’s was just brilliant! Manesh explained what we were going to do then we did it - he answered questions; told stories and explained the history of Udaipur and its architecture. We met Udaipur people whose skills in demonstrating and manufacturing pottery, metal work, foodstuffs were exceptional. Manesh took care of them and us so we didn’t have any pressure to tip or buy. In fact he bought us masala tea and crisps! The pace was just right, lots of variety - we loved the vegetable market and we learnt a huge amount about real people, customs and culture. Manesh didn’t disappoint; insightful, patient, funny and a great guide! We highly recommended him - thanks Manesh

We had a very nice and interesting tour through the residential area of the Old Town with nice insights in culture and lifestyle. Manish showed us some local food specialties as well. Thanks a lot!

Very good tour, fully recommended

Manish provided profound cultural, historical and architectural background of Udaipur and showed both touristic and non-touristical places explaining the ordinary life of local people. I would not have seen those places on my own. This tour is a must, if you want to get to know real stunning Udaipur. Thank you Manish, dhanyavad!

Manish was an excellent guide. He is very knowledgeable, polite and kind. He always made sure that we were comfortable and took us off the beaten path. Highly recommended if you want to explore the city beyond the touristy stuff!

Thank you Manish for show us the local Udaipur!!! Was an amazing experience, we recommend this tour 100% 🙂🫶

Absolutely the best thing I did in Udaipur. Manish was full of beautiful information and made sure we had an amazing time exploring together. Thank you for changing lives my friend! A an absolute must do in Udaipur!

I had a fantastic tour with Idrish! I would highly recommend. Because it was Holi, we flexed around to make the tour what would feel good with the crowds. I got to purchase spices and learn about spices. I really enjoyed seeing the city, hearing stories, and Idrish’s kindness and welcoming personality. I had such a good time that I did a tour to the countryside for sunset the next day which was also wonderful. I would definitely do again.

Manish took us on a wonderful tour of the old city! He is super professional and gave us an incredible insiders look into local culture, brought us to many places we wouldnt have found on our own, and I especially appreciated that he encouraged our interaction with the locals and artisans (in a very responsible and ethical manner- and without any feeling of expectation or pressure to buy anything!!). He explained about many aspects that I wouldnt have thought to ask about, but also answered any of our questions that we did ask. He also gave important historical context but without overloading on too much information, and i also appreciated the architecture explanations (Manish went beyond just naming a specific style (as previous guides have done) and instead pointed out different specific elements each time, which was fascinating and perfect). He also speaks wonderful English and I felt comfortable communicating with Manish easily. Lastly he showed us great spots to eat and gave us practical tips- a wonderful introduction to the city! We were a small group and in my opinion this also allowed for a great tour as well Thanks Manish!

Manish is an amazing guide! He is super kind and knowledgeable and gives a very interesting tour of Udaipur. Can absolutely recommend him & his tour if you want to get to know some background information about Udaipur.

We loved our tour through Udaipur with Manish! He told us the history of the city's neighborhoods and introduced us to the local cuisine, letting us try foods such as Masala Chai and Gulab Jamun. It was great touring the city like a local for a few hours!

Manish was an excellent guide - he was knowledgeable, informative & professional & answered our many questions in depth. The tour was really interesting & we also tried some of the local specialties. We’ve been on several walking tours & Manish is the best by far - highly recommend!

I found the tour very interesting and informative,so much knowledge of local customs and the people who live in the old town. Very nice to stop and chat over some chi tea ( in clay pots !) and snacks freshly cooked .Also very refreshing not to be taken anywhere where there was an expectation to buy local produce . The Temple visit was also very interesting . I would recommend this tour if you want an authentic view of local life in the wonderful city of Udaipur.

Prince was very friendly and incredibly informative. He delivered exactly what you want from a tour, a mixture of personal storytelling and historical facts. He took us through routes that he knows and would be hard for visitors to navigate. He was also flexible, happy to slow down or pick up the pace based on what we found more interesting. I would highly recommend Prince as a guide, he will go out of his way to ensure you enjoy your tour and beyond!

I highly recommend this tour, Manish is a wonderful guide and a very kind person! He took us on a deep exploration of the Old Town, showing us the rich culture and traditions of the city. We learned a lot about the history and culture of present day India as well, which provided valuable context about this country. And to top it off, we also did several stops to try some delicious food and chai! We had a wonderful time.

Ha sido una ruta personalizada porque solo estaba yo apuntada. Manish ha adaptado tu trabajo a mis intereses y he disfrutado mucho conociendo tantos detalles artísticos y de la historia de Udaipur como de conocer rincones totalmente locales y auténticos. Me ha dado muchas recomendaciones y sugerencias de visitas para conocer más de la ciudad. Gracias!

Aquí tienes el texto mejorado, con un tono más natural y atractivo: --- Tiene un gran conocimiento de su ciudad y de su cultura. Te muestra otro Udaipur. La experiencia resulta muy interesante y entretenida. Es un gran anfitrión.

Our guide, Prince, is a good storyteller and generally an interesting and positive person. We visited interesting places that weren't even on my shortlist. I would recommend him as your guide in Udaipur.

Really enjoyed the tour, Prince is very informative and knowledgeable. He is also very open about his own life. Highly recommend!

Thank you, Manish, for such a great tour. I’ve visited Udaipur many times but you took me to corners of the Old City I had never seen before, introducing us to the local way of life in the quiet back streets away from the tourist rush. The visit to the potter’s studio was very special. You gave us plenty of interesting information - but not too much! - and the stops at the chai stall and the banana etc chips stall were welcome and fun. Highly recommended!

The best tour and guide you can have!! Knowledge and extremely patient with a very beautiful personality! 💯💞

Mandish gave us the perfect tour of Udaipur today. He is kind, fluent, has deep knowledge and answers all questions with amazing patience. He took us to hidden places we couldn't find on our own, we visited craftsmen and tasted local snacks. He spent 4 hours with us, instead of 2.5. He is humble and honest about his country. We learned so much and highly recommend him.

The tour was very informative and insightful. Prince shared a lot of information about the history of Udaipur, its culture, local religions and lifestyle and much more. We particularly enjoyed the off-the beaten paths aspect of the tour, where we visited local markets, shops and saw locals carry on with their daily activities. I fully recommend Prince's tour! Thank you for sharing so much with us.

Very well curated tour, Prince took us through the narrow streets of Old Udaipur, giving us time to admire the hidden gems, followed by a very informative tour to the jagdish temple and other areas. The entire tour was 3.5 hours, with good time to take pictures and interact with the local culture of udaipur. Highly recommended!

Manish was a lovely guide. Took us to the less touristy, fascinating areas of Udaipur. His explanations were clear and very informative, and there was not even a single question that was left unanswered.
