We had a great day out, and even the teens are still talking about the day we had with these guys. Very welcoming and flexible. Lovely welcome with a garland of the best scented roses and a bindi for each of us. Bottle of water each as well. We booked and paid online well before departure for our 6 week jaunt through 4 countries with our teenagers. The plus in doing this for us was it was done, paid, no hassles and I didn't have to do anything on trip to make things happen. That's actually a big deal, I've wasted hours and days overall on the actual holiday on family trips by booking as we go. The downside is you can lose flexibility and you most likely pay more because you can't haggle. My advice is: if you are travelling with more than one other person or if either of you is a stress head book online before you go. Otherwise you will find tuk tuk drivers everywhere who will beg you to use them for tours. Haggle away, never take the first deal and always walk away after a price then go past them again on returning from wherever you were walking to. The price drops again. Now, tricks for the newbies. Tour guides, taxi drivers, TUK tuk drivers throughout Asia will usually include in your "itinerary" stops at producers or sellers of various handicrafts. They do it because they get either direct commissions, or fuel vouchers or something else. The best in the world at the game are definitely the Indians. If you can't afford the time, to spend money or are not feeling well say no to the driver/tour guide then and there. Here is how it works: 1. "Now we take you to see how they make..." or I will take you to my friends shop just to have a look". 2. There is the warm up bit of "this is how we make...(insert craft here, perhaps genuine hand spun camel dung crocheted into original traditional tribal rug designs used by the last king. But not any old camel, these camels are direct descendents of the camels ridden by the three kings who attended the birth of a certain Jesus of Nazareth." 3. Then you see some crafts people making gorgeous things very deftly with their hands. 4.Then you are sat down to see the products displayed for your eyes only. 5. Rapport building and impressing they usually offer refreshments. 6. Products shown in order of value highest first and they watch your responses (like a skilled medium, they watch your tells to guide them). 7. Jokes are often exchanged as you haggle (the Kashmiri rug and textile traders are a tough bunch. They prefer to give you a pretty set price then give you a choice of a couple of "gifts" after the main purchase is agreed. Very shrewd bunch, expressions might be used to manage your expectations and prevent haggling such as "Don't embarrass/insult me by offering less" what tourist wants to offend the man? It's always a man in India. And he is not poor, largely the big places are big family concerns and they can buy and sell all of us. 8. Even the toughest tourist is usually worn down by their methods. On top of that they make beautiful stuff, nice things we want to take home. They have managed to disorient us further than the culture shock already has. So out comes the plastic and currency ("yes, of course Mr Alex we take all currencies if that's easier for you, or I can have someone come to your hotel to pick up the money tonight, it is no problem at all"). And, cynical as I sound we walked away after spending $900AUD on textiles that day. Lovely things, we will always remember etc. Our kids look fab in their new tailored clothes in hand stamped silk cotton cloth and our new unnecessary bedding is being posted home...and we are very experienced and cynical travelling psychologists! These guys are good! So, say no before hand if you will be unable/uncomfortable to say no and you don't want to spend.We really liked the tour with Hitesh, and recommend to anyone going to Jaipur. Friendly and a really nice company, driver and guide. When we go back to India, we will give him a call!

Just got back from this tour with Rashid. Very knowledgeable, very good driver, took us to all the main sites we wanted to see and to some hidden gems such as the flower and fruit Markets. We were staying at the Khatu Haveli which is where they did the first series of the The Real Marigold Hotel on British tv. Turns out Rashid was one of the celebrities drivers at the time, showed us some vids he had taken. Highly recommended. If you want to see the real parts of this amazing place then you could ask for no better guide!We had a wonderful day with Ali in his tuk tuk tour of Jaipur.

We had a wonderful day with Ali in his tuk tuk tour of Jaipur. Greeted with fresh flower garlands and bottled water. We were asked what we would like to do/see during our tour. We told him our interests and he made some suggestions too. We felt very safe in his tuk tuk, he had great knowledge of the city and spoke English very well. We asked to go to a jewellers to get souvenir gifts and ended up buying wedding rings! Thanks to his jewellers recommendation. We saw all the main must see’s in Jaipur & more. He couldn’t do enough for us. Thank you Ali!This was our second visit to Jaipur, and thought we knew it quite well, until we booked a days tour with Janu. Mr Rashid was fantastic, picked us up on time, took us to places we had not seen before, and was a font of knowledge. He even let my adult daughter drive the Tuctuc! Well recommended
