Great experience in Bodh Gaya – very knowledgeable and kind guide

Zee, Jul 2025

I really enjoyed this trip – it was definitely worth it. The driver was responsible and punctual, and the local guide, Dinesh, was excellent. He was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the history of Bodh Gaya and Nalanda University. I visited during early June, which was one of the hottest times in India, but Dinesh remained patient and professional throughout. We walked long distances under the sun, and he still took the time to explain everything clearly. His dedication and warmth really made this trip special. Highly recommended!
