I really enjoyed the narrative and the skill with which the guide moved the walking tour from place to place, taking me back in time many times, getting me to look up and down, and to see things and ideas I couldn't have seen without him. Many thanks! Tom

Our guide was knowledgeable, professional, enthusiastic and friendly. Took us down alleys we wouldn't have gone down. Had jalebi & chai tea. Tour ended up at an ashram, which was unexpected but definitely a worthwhile experience.

A wonderful introduction to the streets around the GT. You will visit the Partition Museum outside, jalianwah Bagh inside and outside the GT as well as some back street houses and chi stall. Our guide rarity was excellent he took time to answer our many questions
Thanks for the review and feedback.
Fantastic tour. We can honestly say that this was the best tour we’ve done in India. I’m saying honestly because this was also the only tour (so far) where we weren’t pressured to write a quick 5 star review before the end of the tour. Prarit was lovely. So warm and friendly and informative and really took time to hang with us and tell us all about the city. The itinerary was perfect and he helped us out with some great recommendations of places to eat. The stop for jalebis was incredible. We unfortunately had only a short time in Amritsar but meeting Prarit and going on this tour was a highlight.
Thanks phil for your kind words and elaborated review. With Heritage walking tour you will get to know more about amritsar and punjab.
Absolutely fantastic tour and guide. Hardik was on time, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and an all-round lovely person. I was so pleased with everything that I booked a Golden Temple & Jallianwala Bagh Tour for the following morning which just as informative and a great experience. I have no hesitation in recommending Walk And Explore to anyone wanting a helping hand to discover Amritsar.
Thanks for booking tour with us. We really appreciate your kind words.
A creative, engaging and professional walking tour. We learnt a lot from Hardik, who is very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, and we got to taste the best Gulabi in Amritsar! Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the walking tour in Amritsar and found it creative, engaging, and informative.

Sharing authentic flavours and hidden gems with our guests is always a highlight for us. Thank you for recommending Walk and Explore.

Prarit was our guide, he’s knowledgeable & enthusiastic about Amritsar. We had an in-depth briefing about some of the key moments & figures in the development of the city & its architecture. The visit to the ashram was particularly of interest. This is a group tour not a private tour.
