• 5Prompt, informative, and perfectly timed

  Our half-day tour of the Golconda Fort and Qutb Shahi Tombs was excellent. Hotel pickup was prompt, and our tour guide was highly knowledgeable, sharing a wealth of information throughout the day. He was also incredibly accommodating, offering us great choices and options as we went along. A half-day felt like the perfect amount of time to see everything without feeling rushed. Highly recommended!

• 5Golconda and Char Minar experience

  We found the Golconda experience amazing. The guide's explanations added to our knowledge and enjoyment. The bio diversity and the structure was very impressive. Next we visited Qutub Shahi tombs and all the intricacies were explained in detail to us which added to our experience. The next day, we visited Char Minar and Chowmahalla palace where we learned about the history of Nizams and enjoyed the ambience of the palace and the gardens. There was a most beautiful tree in the back garden. One the way, we shopped in a fifth generation attar shop and got presented by a set of laquer bangles by my relative. All in all, a great experience.

  Srinu was the perfect guide! He has a degree in archaeology and is working on his PhD so he has a vast knowledge of India and especially Hydrabad. He was able to customize the level of detail to exactly what we were looking for.

About Hyderabad

Hyderabad is the capital of Telangana, a historic city of pearls, palaces and biryani, built around the Charminar, a four-minaret monument from 1591.

Hyderabad was founded in 1591 by Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah, and the Charminar, a granite and lime-mortar monument with four minarets, marks the heart of the old city. Around it lie the Laad Bazaar, famed for bangles, and the Mecca Masjid, while the Chowmahalla Palace shows how the Nizams, who ruled later, lived. The Salar Jung Museum holds an enormous private collection.
