This activity was recommended to me by a friend that visited Roopaks place two days before me. We had a pleasant time and the family was very welcoming. The place is neat, original and has a good vibe to experience a real local feeling. The instructions of coming there were plenty and clear, also providing us with WiFi and such. If you want to get to know more about Diwali, you came to the right place. And i am sure, if i'd be around in Dehli for Holi, i come again :-)

I liked the Tour very much and specially the fact that the Guru has organised this for few days around the festival time. I was in Delhi for last few days and was always wondering what the festival was all about! During the Tour, Roopak gave me insights about Diwali and let me be part of the rituals of the festival. Roopak was in constant touch with me after I booked the Tour sharing with me all the important information regarding the Tour. The meal cooked by Nidhi was too delicious and Roopak shared the recipes of the dishes, desserts & drinks with me after the Tour. This one is a highly recommended Tour.
