I had booked the private tour of Royal Mysore with Five senses tours and we had Satish as our guide. It was an amazing day. Satish was a fantastic person with immence knowledge. He was also very caring and took very good care of us who were all first time visitors in India. Mysore was incredible and the palace is no less than Taj Mahal. We also saw other parts of this old kingdom like the old bazaar and few more palaces. The lunch was fingerlicking. Satish had suggested traditional Mysore meals and it was a great experience. Go ahead and book this whenever you are in India! Fully recommended.

I am a purebred Bangalorean & a performing artist in Kannada TV, Films & mainly a theatre person. I love to eat & appreciate good food, so much so that I started cooking & travelling. The oldest area of Bangalore it starts with the south Indian idli, grow to vada and khara bath & end with four varieties of dosa's. All pure vegetarian. You would get to visit hotels which have not changed in 50+ years & also hidden gems not known to many new Bangaloreans, special orders which are not in the menu, places which have not changed an inch in 30 years, hotels which exist from 1924 etc. All your senses are in for a treat in this tour. Touch and feel the farm fresh veggies and fruits, smell the food, flowers and betel leaves of the market, see the vibrant colours of a traditional southern market, taste food which you have never tasted before, hear the hustle of people, talk to them using the local slang and most importantly, you get to laugh at my silly jokes free of cost.

I am experienced traveler and consider myself "adventurous," but the combination of logistical challenges and language issues can make South Indian cities overwhelming. As much as I love exploring, doing the pete area on my own would have been intimidating. Poornima made it just fun and I saw things that I would never have seen on my own. She was also very adept at quickly leveraging my own particular interests--I mentioned Jainism and then, when we came across a Jain festival, she took me in the neighborhood Jain temple. You can't do better than this.
