The tour and our guide (Abishek) were gourgeos. He proved to be knowledgeable about the history of Krishna as well as the places visited. Convey love for India
My tour guide was Shehnaz for the day and she was very friendly, attentive and happy to answer any sort of questions. The day starts at 06:30am with a hotel pick-up. The tour is insightful and allows you to learn more about the birth place of Krishna and the different temples that worship this God in these towns. Shehnaz was great in providing information about the temples but I would have liked to have recieved some more detailed information. The tour also includes a family lunch which was a remarkable and tasty experience. It was very lovely to see how a family lives in these areas and to try some of their delicous food. The tour also includes a boat ride which is nice.
I would really recommend the tour and this guide to anyone if you want to have a general insight into the area and ways of living. If you are however looking for more indepth information about Krishna it may lack a little bit but still recommendable.
