Due to the crowd, you dont get much time to be inside the temple, but you can sit outside near the lake (especially in the night), it's a beautiful experience. At 10 pm, we were blessed to see the PALKI, which one should not miss. Langar & Prasad (Sheera) is awesome.Emmaubp

We had an amazing tour of Amritsar and the golden temple. Our guide Anil Sharma was the prefect guide! He was very knowledgeable and answered every question on our minds! It not often I write a review but Anil Sharma really deserves the best! He should us the golden temple, the memorial and the Wagah Border! We had a wonderful day accompanied by a great guide. If you are ever thinking of visiting Amritsar and the golden temple I would recommend this tour and Anil as the guide!dhvan2020

I highly recommend this tour as it covered everything we wanted to see and more. Goldie (our guide) was very pleasant and Knowledgeable and made sure all our requests were taken care of. Do spend some time inside the golden temple the day before if you’d like to volunteer or go to the main shrine. The wait is usually an hour so doing that along with everything else will be difficult. I usually don’t put in reviews but I took the time to write this. So that itself should tell a lot about the quality of the tour. We had no trouble getting in contact or with the car etc. he even took us to the right places for shopping. Everything went very well!
