Great day - cool sites and lots of monkeys!

The tour was exactly as described. Our driver, Ravi, was great and established contact the day before and then again the morning of our tour. He picked us up right on time from our hotel. The fort was great - maybe our favorite part of the tour. It was beautiful and we saw a number of different monkeys, birds, cows, and other animals. The step well was beautiful as was the temple across the road. We stopped to grab a quick lunch - the food was delicious - and then ended our day by visiting the monkey temple closer to the city. Ravi was great and we really enjoyed the day. Don’t hesitate to book this day trip!

A fantastic day out

A fantastic tour. Karin was an excellent host, offering extensive local knowledge and engaging conversation. The step well was particularly impressive and definitely worth the trip. I highly recommend this tour and truly enjoyed my experience.

More of a taxi service than a tour

Manoj was a good, careful driver. You should know though, that you are basically just booking a taxi for the day, not a tour as you might think of it. It is just you and the driver for most of it. There isnt a guide with you the whole time and not really much commentary along the way. There is no guide provided at the fort and the guides there were asking 500 Rp. The driver asked if I wanted a guide at the stepwell and I had to remind him it was included. Unfortunately the guide provided, though nice enough, kind of just rushed me through like he was in a hurry for his next booking. He also didnt really explain much that i couldnt get from the website. After the stepwell, he asked if I wanted to go back to the hotel, even though the Monkey Temple was supposed to be on the itinerary. When we eventually got to the temple, he again asked if i wanted a guide, even though one was supposed to be included. At that point I couldnt be bothered. All in all, if you just want a taxi service then he was good at that, but dont really expect a tour. Not sure if you can hire a taxi for a better rate locally though.

Great visits and driver

The driver (Manoj) was everything we would want from a driver. He drove carefully and we were happy that he was friendly and courteous The guide for the Fort confused us and asked us for payment when we had already paid the company via Viator. We said No and eventually he came back and said the company had said we had already paid. Be prepared to stand your ground if you have paid. His local knowledge was good so after the initial problem we would say our experience was average. The tour guide at the Step Well Abhaneri was below average. He spent most of his time on his phone leaving us to do our own thing. He did try to catch up after he had finished his numerous phone calls but despite saying he had been the tour guide for Michael Portillo in the BBC programme we felt he ought to look after his customers better at the outset The step well was amazing and the fort ruins were interesting. There were many monkeys at the Fort ruins. The driver was the best employee

Lovely tour of Jaipur's main attractions. Will recommend!

We (4 friends) had a lovely tour to Jaipur's main attractions. Driver/guide was very kind and knowledgeable about the town. Very kindly and patiently drove us around and showed us the main attractions of the city. Picked up and dropped off at the hotel which was very convenient.we booked the tour on the same day, so we appreciate the availability on short notice. Will highly recommend. Thank you!
