Itinerary
- 1You will be transferred from your hotel to the Town Hall where your tour starts. We’ll first move towards Gurudwara Saraghari. We’ll then proceed to Qila Ahluwalia and Jalebiwala Chowk - home to some of the most famed jalebi (sweets) shops and other eateries in Amritsar. Following, we’ll wander through busy bazaars selling mix of Fulkari textile. Strolling through, we’ll soon reach the chitta akharas, 250-year-old hostels for spiritual seekers and saints. We’ll pass through Taksal Chowk and reach the infamous “Crawling Street ” where a 1919 military order issued by General Dyer (nicknamed “the Butcher of Amritsar”) required people to crawl for 150 yards if they wished to cross the main street. From there, we’ll head to a local turban shop and you will learn the tricks and techniques for tying a 9 foot turban. We’ll finish up at the Harmandir Sahib, famously known as the Golden Temple, the most sacred place for Sikhs in the world. From here you will be transferred back to your hotel.
About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Quest344957458810 contributionsWell worth it!We partook in the evening cookery class with Mr Singh and his chef. This was a highlight of our trip and our teenage son was really looking forward to this experience. We first set off to the vegetable and spice markets so learn about the foods used in our dishes and where they came from, negotiating the Jaipur traffic which was an experience in itself! We then took a short Tuk Tuk ride back to the homestay, where we cooked up dishes and then partook in a meal of our dishes. This was a really insightful and pleasant evening which we enjoyed immensely.Written November 25, 2024
- ranjinir20130 contributionsUnimaginable structures and systemsThe views and the structure was amazing and jaw dropping. 112 feet shiva Statue is one of the 8 wonders in terms of tallest structures and top 2 amongst Asia.

- barbaracM7649DZ0 contributionsScam!This tour is grossly overpriced and I am requesting a partial refund. The mangrove is nothing but a tourist trap with no wildlife and polluted water. The guide had very basic English and didn’t have much to say at all. It was a long and boring day not to mention a complete rip off. The only good part is the temple. You can easily take a Uber there for very little money. I am not only disappointed but outraged at the cost.Written September 14, 2024
- Poojapaul770 contributionsDakshin at Hotel SheratonWe went to Hotel Dakshin and are our favorite South Indian cuisine at restaurant Dakshin. It's our favorite and the best south Indian cuisine in New Delhi. The mutton chops were so render, chicken stew was yummilicious. Madam halwa is blissful and ended with our south Indian coffee. Darshan served us and provided us impeccable service as alwayz. We thoroughly enjoyed our food, ambience and service was just perfect. Sudhir took care of us too very well. Compliments to Chef Solomon was coming such delicious dishes.😋 PoojaWritten September 7, 2024

- Joel C0 contributionsDont go Dont tryA restaurant this size and bigger expectations fails on most counts Lets start with their reservations well the take pride in no reservation, but the truth is there are special people seated who have had a backdoor reservation I get a corner sest after a 30 min wait, and boy, i realise the absolute doldrums that the cleanliness is in. My upholstery was dirty, and so were the surrounding walls floor. Ehh I ordered the lamb kebab, the chick tandoori, their acclaimed bukhare dal, and some breaks. The lamb was a disaster. Never eaten something so bad. It was like beaten black and blue and yet left uncooked. The chicken was dry chewy flavourless. The dal was very avaerage and lacked any punch. The staff is courteous though doling out these dished in batches and quickly. Even a catering food would be better. Never again and wudnt even advise a try.Written August 17, 2024
