Our guides Raj and Ballu were extremely knowledgeable and very humours. Everyone in the workshop was also eager to share their craftsmanship with us. We learned all about Hand Block printing and then we got to try and make some fabric ourselves! After the tour is also a great time to buy some scarfs and fabric :). They were much cheaper and better quality than anything you can find in the tourist shops. I would highly recommend this adventure to anyone!Loved the Hand block printing experience.
