!! Excellent experience with Vistara Airlines !!
Myself Yogendra Singh, I was travelled dated on 10th July’24 from Bali, Indonesia to Delhi, India for Vistara airlines in economy class. It was on time departure, friendly staff and efficient, excellent service, amazing hygiene meals and neat and clean cabins and rest rooms. Crew exceeded expectations. Full marks to cabin crews (Ms. Shrestha, Ms. Ritika, Ms. Neha, Ms. Falakpreet) for their hospitality and care. I need to give a special thanks to their flight captains exceptional smooth landing during the bad weather. Highly recommended. I am genuinely excited to fly with Vistara flight again on the 20th of July’24 from Delhi, India to Bali, Indonesia due to the great exceptional services and attention. It Is the best airline with the best services and they should start an airline all over the world. THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN VISTARA AIR LINES AND CREW STAFF WITH CAPTAINS 😊!

History at Qutub Minar Mehrauli through Storytellers
The audio guided tour of the Qutub Minar, Delhi , from Storytellers, can be downloaded free from the internet. It's informative and is a step by step guide, great for putting you on the right direction and walking you through all the important bits of the Qutub Minar Complex.

Enjoyable guided experience of Humayun Tomb at our pace
Excellent historical and cultural narrative. Initially took some time to figure out how to use it, but after a few 'stops', got a handle of it and enjoyed the experience. We were able to listen at our pace and felt privacy too.

Great tour, app a little finicky
The app doesn't accept foreign credit cards, so bought through TripAdvisor. Within 20 minutes, I got a code to use in the app, worked. Downloaded the w asking tour and was off and running. The tour itself was very good, but the app had issues with location and skipping certain spots and was a lot more finicky than voicemap. But I would use it in the future

Dont miss this app, it's amazing!
This app is amazing. Just make sure to download it via wifi, before going on tour. We didnt do so for ajanta and as there was no 4g reception, we could not use the guide. Luckily there is an virtual option, so we will retake the tour from home. I also had some installation issues, but was the customer service and tech team helped me super quick and well. They were so kind and helpful! At Ellora we finally were able to use the audio guide and we enjoyed it so much. We could do the tour at our own time, while listening to this pleasant voice. We got lots of fun facts and historical stories. Thanks to this app we didn't need an expensive guide and we were able to look at everything on our own time. We used it at fort Daulatabad as well. Be awere before going there, the steps are endless. But yet again the audio guide made this trip richer and more interesting then it would have been without. Thanks hopon India!

Great experience of exploring the pink city - Jaipur. Highly recommended.
The old pink city of Jaipur has its own kind of mesmerising vibe. This tour has helped me explore the city's food, culture, history, music, crafts, architecture, etc in an immersive way. I highly recommend this tour, especially to solo travellers in Jaipur. The entire narration is very interesting, knowledgeable, and engaging. I loved the overall experience.

Amazing experience of exploring the real Banaras.
This audio guided tour by HopOn India helped me explore Banaras through the city's zig-zag lanes which are quite chaotic yet calm and beautiful. I could experience the magical vibe of Banaras through this walk. I was able to explore the city's great food, it's festivals, history, culture, and more. The tour is a complete package of city exploration and I would definitely recommend it to others.

Great for solo travelers
I went to the Elephanta caves solo and I must say this app is a great companion and guide for a solo traveller. The tour was very well narrated and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the lesser known stories. With HopOn, you can explore the place at your own pace and learn more about whatever interests you. The best part is that the narration isn't boring, but manages to hold your attention for the entire time. Will definitely recommend to those who like solo travel.

The audio guide that you need !
Aurangabad, in itself, is a hidden gem & the HopOn audio guide was another one that we used to explore it. Succinct and accurate - the app made us experience the history of this fort like it was all happening in front of us. The citations made in the audio are apt, you can easily walk through fort and easily spot what is being referenced. There is a long walk before you actually hit fort walls. The audio narrates details on what went on in the prior periods that led to current day fort the way it is. The overall content is rich, recorded in a clean and easy to understand manner. The best part - walking through the area with your audio tour on, you don’t need any other companion. The app is quite easy to use and the tour can be pre- downloaded in case you risk losing network. I look forward to exploring their other tours as well!

Mesmerizing experience along the holy river Ganges.
For someone who's a wallflower like me, these audio guided walking tours by HopOn India are just perfect. These tours, which are well-researched and engaging, also becomes important for the tourists post Covid. Without any dependency on Tour Guides, one can explore the places themselves. A solo trip to Banaras was my best decision.

Best audio tour!
The Jain caves in Ellora are the newest among all the caves and are located at some distance from the other Hindu and Buddhist caves. The Hop on India tour for the caves helped us go to the most significant caves among the multiple caves in the complex. The tour was well detailed and easy to navigate and follow. We took the tour which was for the entire complex ( Hindu+ Jain + Buddhist) and took us about 4 hours to complete including breaks. There is an individual Jain cave tour option which is more detailed. The level of detail, narration and convenience was far better than any tour ( with guide or audio) I have taken in the past. Must have for a great visit to the complex.
