Haider took excellent care of us during our recent visit to Udaipur. Driving with him has been among the safest and most comfortable car journeys I have had in India. Haider was very knowledgeable, extremely accommodating and punctual, and it was a pleasure travelling with him. We visited the temple at Eklingji, the Devigarh palace (highly recommend lunch there and a walking tour of Delwara with a Seva-Mandir-trained-guide), the Sahastrabahu ruins at Nagda, capped off with a visit to the Monsoon Palace in Udaipur at dusk.
