  • 5great place to visit and excelent tour guide

    The fort and its sourrandings are beatufull.Sachin is a great tour guide, very kind and knew a lot about the place and indian culture in general. Also his english is very clear. I recommend to visit the place not in weekends because it gets very crowded.

  • 5Great experience!

    My wife and I and our kids did this Sinhagad Fort and had a great time! The guide is excellent! My oldest said this was his favorite thing we did in country. Highly recommend if looking for a half day adventure to get out of the city.

  • 5History and vistas, away from the crowds

    A very enjoyable tour. I wanted some time away from the city's hustle and bustle and I got what I wanted. Dhruv was amazing as guide because he not only knew all the stories related to the place, but was also full of tips for where to go in Pune after the trip. I also liked his flexibility and the fact that I could have intelligent conversations with him on any subject. About the trip itself: the fort is a short walk from the parking spot, and once up there it is up to you how adventurous you feel and where you want to go for extra viewpoints. I visited in the off season - there seems to be more beauty during monsoon season - but also more crowds. For me, the stop at the lake didn't add anything and could have been taken out. But as always, opinions are highly personal, others might love the stop. It was short enough and Dhruv had enough stories to make me not mind. A memorable trip.

  • 5Good half day tour

    Really nice half day trip. I joined as a solo traveler and had a great time. We started at 7 am and we were back after noon. Everything was smooth and enjoyable. My guide, Atharva was helpful and very knowledgeable. Recommended.
