It was an amazing experience to visit an historical place like Bangaluru Fort The doors are so big and enough to protect people inside, you will find big surrounding walls which are made by keeping set by one by one stone Though inside area is not acceptable and the back gate of the Fort is starting damage also inside a little bit garden also there Photography is not provided here.

Akshay guided me around the core of historical Bangalore, offering rich descriptions and interpretations as we went from site to site on foot. We started at Tippu Sultan’s palace, visited a former armory, explored the Bangalore Fort, and admirered the adjacent hospital. Since we were moving quickly he had time to lead me on an unplanned excursion through the vibrant and highly authentic Indian experience of K. R. Market, which I definitely recommend. Thanks Akshay!
Dear Tom, So glad that you liked your experience with us. We hope to show around another part of town on your next visit with us. Regards, Adam.
This walk is super awesome. Mr Ali is very knowledgeable and takes immense interest personally to explain the heritage and safeguarding the same. He is an architect by training so the experience becomes much more interesting. I highly recommend his guidance if one wants to explore Bangalore.

Although I was late and didnt had a chance to connect to internet. Mr Ali waited for me for 1 hour and he came back again to our meeting place. Very kind tour guide here in Bengaluru. Tour was amazing, he also have his books and illustrations while explaining the history. Ill definitely come back here for more tours. Thank you so much! Ill recommend this tour!
Dear Guest, Thank you very much. Hope to see you on another tour in future. Warm regards from Bengaluru by foot.
It was a very engaging 3 hours full of details about certain aspects of the city's history which otherwise I was completely oblivious to. From Kempe Gowda to Tipu Sultan, we were taken through the landmark moments with lots anecdotes and juicy bits from history. I liked the fact that Mr.Mansoor carried several books which had paintings and portraits of the people he mentioned during the talk. It gave good, meaningful context. The talk starts from a breakfast joint/darshini in Chamrajpet, followed by the Summer Palace, the armoury and then ending at the Bangalore Fort. It was not too hectic either, as all these places were within 10 min walking distance of each other. A well spent Saturday morning!
Dear Rachita, It was a pleasure to show you around town. We look forward to see you on another tour whenever you come back to Bangalore. Regards, Adam
