Hardi was a kind, considerate and illuminating tour guide that clearly knows and loves his city. The perfect guide!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're delighted to hear that you had a wonderful experience with Hardik. His passion for Amritsar and his commitment to creating meaningful, informative tours is something we’re very proud of. It means a lot to know that you found him kind, considerate, and illuminating—truly the qualities we strive to bring to every guest experience. Thank you for choosing Walk and Explore, and we hope to welcome you again for more immersive cultural and heritage tours in Amritsar!
I booked three tours with Walk and Explore in Amritsar: the Golden Temple and Jallianwala Bagh tour, the Amritsar Food Tour, and the Back in Time Heritage Walk. Prarit led all three, and the consistency across the experience was excellent. Each tour was well organised, clearly scheduled, and paced sensibly. Prarit was friendly from the outset and immediately put me at ease. He took time to understand what I wanted from the tours rather than relying on a generic script. As a street photographer interested in documentary-style work, I appreciated the effort he made across all three tours to show me the real city: backstage areas of the langar, vantage points for interesting photographs, quieter corners, and everyday scenes that most visitors would miss. The food tour was a standout. It gave me a clear sense of where it was safe to eat and what dishes genuinely represent Amritsar rather than tourist standards. We visited places I would never have tried on my own, and the explanations behind each stop added context rather than just being a list of foods. The Back in Time heritage walk was equally strong. It gave me a much better understanding of the older parts of the city, the layers of history, and the mix of Indian and European architectural influences. Prarit pointed out small but significant details I would have walked past without noticing. Across all tours, communication with Walk and Explore was straightforward. Everything was arranged via WhatsApp, guides were confirmed in advance, and there were no unwanted shop stops or pressures to buy anything. It was respectful, informative, and flexible. I was able to ask a wide range of questions and always got clear, knowledgeable answers. The tours ended on a warm note, and it genuinely felt like a meaningful introduction to Amritsar rather than a transaction. I highly recommend Walk and Explore. All three tours were excellent, and Prarit delivered a reliable, insightful, and enjoyable experience throughout.
Thank you so much for sharing such a detailed and thoughtful review! We’re truly delighted to hear that your experience with Walk and Explore Amritsar—from the Golden Temple & Jallianwala Bagh Tour to the Amritsar Food Tour and the Back in Time Heritage Walk—was memorable and meaningful. Prarit will be thrilled to know that his effort to customise each tour to your interests, especially your passion for street and documentary photography, added value to your journey. Showing guests the real Amritsar—its hidden corners, authentic food spots, and rich architectural heritage—is exactly what we strive for, and it’s wonderful to know you felt that throughout all three experiences. We’re also glad that you appreciated the smooth communication, transparent scheduling, and our commitment to providing authentic, safe, and non-commercial tours with no forced shopping stops. Our goal is always to offer respectful, informative, and flexible experiences that help travellers truly connect with Amritsar’s culture and history. Thank you for recommending us and for choosing Walk and Explore. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you again for more unique cultural and heritage experiences in Amritsar and beyond! 🌟

Thanks Ulli...Thanks for the review. This will help other travellers to know about services
I enjoyed the tour, Hardik gave a good snippet history on the massacre in 1919, the Golden Temple and the rise of Sikhism. We visited the Langar (community kitchen) and Jallianwala Bagh- memorial that marks Amritsar massacre in 1919. Helpful having a guide as would be a bit tricky navigating on your own.
Thank you very much for the review. We really appericiate your efforts.
We had a wonderful experience touring the Golden Temple in Amritsar with Walk and Explore. Parit was an excellent tour guide. He showed us where the Jallianwala Bagh massacre occurred. And how the langar is prepared. It was an amazing experience. He was very knowledge and answered all questions and queries.

This tour was amazing . Prarit immediately called us after the booking was done. We were told where to meet. On that day my husband and I got lucky with a private tour expecting a group tour. He is very knowledgeable about Amritsar. We had an amazing time and got to learn a lot about Jallianwala Bagh and Sikhism . Toured the kitchens and langar area of the golden temple. The 21/2 hours just flew since it was a very interesting and we got to learn a lot about the architecture and history . He went out of his way to suggest a few places to eat and visit.

It was a truly memorable and enriching experience. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting the Golden Temple!
