We had a great time with Vinay: learning about Mysore history, making our way through the market, asking questions about Indian lifestyle and culture, visiting an art workshop... The tour was interactive, very interesting and we didn't notice the time go by.

Not everywhere do you get the benefit of being shown around historic sites by a group of young energetic guys who have left behind well paying conventional jobs to pursue a passion in history, art and culture. we did the open jeep tour of srirangapatna and boy did we love it!

I did a tour with my study abroad program this past January. Vinay was an excellent tour guide - enthusiastic, patient, flexible and very knowledgeable about the city's history. Mysore is a beautiful city, rich with culture and history, and I highly recommend doing a walking tour with RMW to fully take in its charm.

Brilliant tour and guide. Very enjoyable and informative. Definitely book this tour if you're in the area.

As Vinay began the walk, I was amused to see everyone including me, totally engrossed in his narration of the history Mysore has to offer. Amidst all that insights and the vivid picture of the rich... More

Thanks to Vinay and his team for their... More
