We booked with Vishnu for a short private tour in an afternoon of Qutub Minar on the day we arrived in Delhi having travelled overnight.
Vishnu picked us up on time and from the beginning to the end our tour was just fantastic, he told us interesting stories and educating us as we went. Vishnu also extended our tour took us to some additional sites we did not expect and he stopped to buy us a masala chai. A 3 hour tour was actually 5 and we enjoyed every minute.
Thank you Vishnu, when I visit again I will definitely book a tour with you!!!! You showed us the real India and we will forever be grateful.Just a brilliant guide!

Extremely knowledgeable , informative and perceptive guide. Seemed to know exactly what we wanted to see and achieve from our visit to India including taking us to places that we wouldn't have otherwise gone .He was sensitive to local people but knew that we didn't want to shop so never took us anywhere we didn't ask to go. He was great at recommending local authentic restaurants and we enjoyed a couple of evenings in his company. I would have no hesitation in recommending him and his driverTour with Vishnu Singh

If you want to experience Delhi, I HIGHLY recommend selecting Vishnu as your guide. I spent the day with Vishnu seeing all of Delhi, including the "real" Delhi and had an amazing time. Honest, courteous, and personable. When I return to Delhi I won't think twice to contact Vishnu again.An unforgettable experience

We had an exceptional tour in Delhi with Vishnu!
He was completely flexible and customised the day entirely to our needs as we went along - perfect for a short trip with limited time. Highlights included a walk through the Old City and several glances into daily life in Delhi throughout the tour.
Vishnu is very knowledgeable and provided great insights and recommendations during the day and for the rest of our trip.
A wonderful start to our time in India and we cannot recommend Vishnu highly enough!A great guide

We had a fantastic day in Delhi thanks to Vishnu and his driver! We had only 1 day in Delhi and he managed to show us the highlights + the daily life of the local people. Vishnu knows all details about every place, and is a very passionate storyteller. Not only about the city, but also about his personal life - which is a very special story. We will remember our Delhi day with many happy thoughts, and hope to return soon. Then we will contact Vishnu again immediately, we highly recommend to do the same!Fantastic day in Delhi with Vishnu

Vishnu is an amazing guide, with a strong knowledge & kindness.
They came to pick us up at the airport with Mister G early morning for a 2-days private visit in Delhi.
Vishnu adapted to our needs: we wanted to see both monuments and real Delhi life. He also took into account that we were tired of our flight the first day, and planned to do more activities on the second day.
Special mention to his little cafe and amazing butter chicken restaurant!
I highly recommend!Our Favourite Guide Vishnu

My second time to Delhi in 18 months and both times I have been in the best hands with Vishnu. His incredible humbleness and politeness make him endearing to any tourist, and you will quickly realise that Vishnu wants the best for your experience. Punctual, flexible and sincere, he provides the MOST INCREDIBLE insights into Delhi's attractions (inc. Old Delhi's laneways, mosques and shops). My friends realised why insisted on being guided by Vishnu again. They still rave to me how he made the city come to life with such deep understanding. And his explanation of the love story behind the origins of the Taj Mahal will leave you impacted and appreciative of India's rich Taj history. A trip without Vishnu is an opportunity wasted to see, breathe and taste the REAL India.The BEST tour there is in Delhi and beyond!!

Vishnu really made our day. He made our 10 hour layover between flights amazing. We asked him not to see the temples but the culture and people and in 1 day we were able to experience a varied collection of experiences not on the usual tourist track. From helping serve the poor to seeing how locals really live to the best dining to a personal tour deep into old Delhi. He had a great personality, deep knowledge and generally a great guy.Delhi food tour

This was simply the best experience we could have hoped for while traveling in India and we owe most of that to Vishnu for his amazing guidance. He took us not only to the big sites but also to local places we would not have known to go by ourselves. He made sure we ate at places he could trust would keep us healthy. He guided us around sites with interesting stories and information about what we were seeing and doing. We felt so comfortable with him and we made each other laugh all week! 100% recommend!Awesome Guide

Vishnu gave us a most amazing experience and accommodated our every request. He is extremely knowledgeable about history, culture, religions, etc. His English is impeccable, and his companion driver, Mr. G., was a charm. We asked to see more of how people live so he gave us a two hour walking tour of Old Delhi and then of a neighborhood "colony"; followed by a wonderful dinner at a very local eatery. (We were happy just driving past the requisite tourist sights). We Highly recommend him.An excellent day with Vishnu
