Once in a lifetime Golden Temple and Wagah border tour
Our trip to Amritsar was excellent. Amristar the holy shrine was awesome, and the experience of watching theI Indian troops at the Wagah Border ceremony was amazing and very patriotic.
The tour was well planned with Navdeep safe and good driver and
Very smart and knowledgeable guide Ajay Preet Singh.
Thank you all for this memorable tour!

Highly recommended
Deepak was our guide, he is knowledgeable & passionate about Amritsar & the Golden
temple. A real pleasure to take the tour with him. The Golden temple is remarkable & not to be missed.
Having a great guide brings the temple to life & you gain so much more from your visit. It's worth paying more to enjoy a personal
tour.

Memorable Experience
Rishi was wonderful - in a word. He was proactive and clear in his communication which was a huge plus for me as it was my first to Amritsar. He gave valuable recommendations such as changing our tour time to 9:00am, which we followed, that gave us great weather and minimal crowds. The tour took us to the parts of the temple complex unknown to even my sikh friends. I wish the tour actually included a visit harminder sahib (the actual temple within the complez). My guess is that due to waiting time unpredictability - none of the tour has that. sensing our wish to do that - Rishi guided us in a way that we could do it on our own.

Golden Tour
We had a wonderful tour experience and especially enjoyed all of the information coupled with the behind the scenes views of the Langar food, preparation, and service. I highly recommend this to everyone, especially the private tour package.

Cram this into your trip if you can
This is such a good and difference experience that you should cram into your trip if you can. The border ceremony is a very surreal experience and the golden temple complex is one of the best buildings I have seen and also run by one of the most interesting communities (the Sikhs). You get to go inside the kitchens etc and see it all which is a really good experience

Nice tour guide especially the Golden temple. It was very hot the day of the visit but the guide managed to explain the most important details.
The Wagah border ceremony was also a must experience.
However no Partition museum visit during this tour.

Great day with Balwinder!
this was the longest tour I ever done and it was filled with adventure and new experiences I am so grateful for! The golden temple is well worth the visit and time and in my opinion more special than the Taj! I felt really safe and comfortable during my stay and was put in very nice accommodation. If you are curious about doing this tour I highly recommend it!

This is the Tour and Guide you need to book!
I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The tour guide "Jassi" was exceptional: he truly made this a memorable experience. I had mentioned to Jassi that I enjoyed photography and he truly went out of his way to ensure I had many unique photo opportunities. This tour and Jassi truly exceeded all expections.

Excellent tour of the Golden Temple
We had an excellent guide in Ram , who explained the historical significance of the Golden Temple in detail and also took us to areas we would certainly not have been able to access if we went individually. The most fascinating part of the tour for me was the being able to see the langar kitchen up close - it was simply staggering to see the amount of food being prepared and the monumental effort it takes. We also got some nice vantage points for photographs courtesy Ram. A highly recommended tour on my part
