“An Unforgettable Day in Jaipur with Nitin – More Than a Guide, a Friend”
We had the absolute pleasure of spending a day exploring Jaipur with Nitin, and it was truly the highlight of our trip to India. Nitin is not just knowledgeable, he’s a gifted storyteller who brings Jaipur’s history to life. A particular highlight was at Amber Fort, where he shared the fascinating story of why the raja built various rooms for the queens. In just one day, Nitin guided us through an incredible journey: Hawa Mahal, the Amber Fort, a peaceful Hindu Temple of Lord Krishna, the stunning Panna Meena Stepwell, the beautiful Water Palace (Jal Mahal), the Royal Cenotaphs, and we concluded at the City Palace. Honestly, achieving this seamless transition from one place to another on our own would have been nearly impossible. Nitin’s planning and local expertise made the day flow effortlessly. Beyond his guiding expertise, Nitin provided excellent driving service. We felt completely comfortable and safe throughout the day. What truly made this trip special was Nitin himself. He didn’t feel like just a guide, but like a friend who genuinely cared that we had the best possible experience. His kindness and calm presence made the day unforgettable. If you’re planning a trip to Jaipur, book with Nitin. Your only regret will be not booking him for two days!
