  • 5 star ratingThe city comes alive Navin is a thoroughly modern man with a passion for history, discovery and all things Hyderabadi. The walking tour is a delight and the evening food tour is even better. If you’d like to get a little closer to real, street-level India, wander with Navin through some of the hidden backstreets or culinary gems of this historic city. Great fun and a wonderful companion and guide.

  • 5 star ratingNavin's knowledge makes this tour uniquely valuable! Navin is full of the kind of deep knowledge of history and the locale that immeasurably enriches the already incomparable experience of exploring the Old City, and he delivers it in an engaging way. Importantly, he's very easy to understand even in a crowded marketplace.
    My friend and I had an extra day after a business meeting so we decided to see the old city in the morning before it got too hot. That was a good plan: I expect I will long remember sitting on a wall in the shade of a venerable banyan tree in the courtyard of the Chowmahala Palace with tired feet and an exquisite breeze!

  • 5 star ratingExcellent! I very much enjoyed the tour in the old city of Hyderabad and learn about the history of the city, the laad bazaar and the Nizam rulers. The tour guide John was really great and guided me well through the streets and the bazaar. I very much liked climbing up the Chaminar and have chai tea and cookies at the local bakery. I had an excellent time during the tour.

  • 5 star ratingMemorable Evening - Highlihgt of Our Trip If you're considering a food tour in the area, look no further than Jon Wilson – this was truly an excellent experience! The food was absolutely delicious, and there was no pressure to try anything we weren’t comfortable with. Jon not only shared fascinating history about the city, but also took photos for us, making it a memorable experience. As four white women in a busy, crowded market, we never once felt unsafe – Jon made sure we were always taken care of. He even stayed with us well past our tour time to ensure we were safely in our Uber back to the hotel. Plus, we all enjoyed the food without any GI distress afterward, which is a big win! I can’t recommend Jon and the company enough – 1000% recommend!
