Half day Hyderabad tour to Golkonda fort & Qutub Shahi tombs in private car

Great trip and guide

Great tour and great guide, Srinu He was patient and answered our questions thoroughly. We enjoyed our time at this half day tour

Illuminating educational tour

I was picked up promptly at Marriott Hotel and my guide John Wilson Kola brought me in a private car to Fort Golkonda, the royal residence of the Hindu kings in the 12th century, followed by 3 generations of Moslem kings until the 17th century, after which Hindu tribes retook the area in the old city section of Hyderabad. I made it to the top - 360 steps! - and viewed the armory, water wells, dance halls, judgement halls, mosques and minarets, all equipped with ancient sound architecture systems to facilitate conmunication across the kingdom. All the while, John regaled me with his encyclopedic knowledge of this venerated historical site as well as the Qutub Shahi tombs nearby and everything in between. Thank you for such an illuminating tour!

Fort

This fort is worth visiting and you can easily spend your half day in the fort as it is bery huge. And good place for photography also!!!

Best Tour of Fort + Tombs

Very good tour of the fort and tombs. John was a walking history book and went above and beyond to make our experience special. Well worth the money paid.

Rich historical Tour of Hyderabad's Past with Beautiful Views

Had a fantastic tour of the Golconda Fort and Qutub Shahi Tombs with 5 Senses and their excellent guide Srinu. The tour was well paced and full of the rich history of the sites and hidden gems as well as beautiful tranquil views. Our driver Saif was excellent as well and provided comfortable, speedy, and safe transportation. This is my second tour with 5 Senses and I highly recommend this tour and their services.

Great tour, great sightseeing.

Mohan is a great tour guide. He explained everything on the trip, and he’s a funny guy. Veera drove the car and was always available to pick us up on time - and with water bottles. I would happily take other tours. It was a great experience. Thanks!

Perfect half day tour

It was a perfect half day tour to the Golconda Fort and the Qutub Shahi Tombs. Srinu is a very good guide with much knowledge and very friendly. Would booking again.

Perfect Half Day Introduction to Hyderabad

As usual, Five Senses comes through with flying colors. I needed to arrange a half-day tour for senior executives within a specific radius of my office. Five Senses identified the right venue, the right guide, and worked with me to ensure that I found a restaurant that would meet some fairly restrictive dietary requirements. In the end, everything came off beautifully. Timing and scheduling were perfect. The guide was excellent, striking the right balance between history, architecture, and the relation between what the group was seeing and modern India. This kept my guests enthralled and engaged, and resulted in a very positive experience. The restaurant selection was enjoyed by all. As a repeat Five Senses customer, all I can say is "Well done" and "I will be traveling more in the future with Five Senses!"

Most interesting tour

He gave us context for the history and had such interesting stories. The tour guide helped us to avoid beggars and we were thrilled with the tour. He had exclusive things to see that most tours wouldn’t cover.

Wonderful history

Our guide was so knowledgeable and helped us to understand Indian society. He was patient when we wanted to take more time at a place and helped us to be safe.

Great private tour of Hyderabad

We had an extra day in Hyderabad and this was exactly what we were looking for, our only regret is that we signed up for a half-day instead of full day tour! All transportation (in an A/C car with hotel pickup) and entrance tickets were included and it truly was a private tour so we could go at our own pace. John, our guide, has lived in Hyderabad for 20+ years and has extensive knowledge about its history as well as current happenings around the city.

Fantastic tour of the Golconda Fort and Qutub Shahi Tombs

Azam provides a fascinating tour complete with historical highlights, significant culture references and the most perfect photo stops! I will surly request Azam when I am able to visit again and tour more of Hyderabad.

Very interesting guided tour!

Our guide, Azam, was very knowledgeable and the tour went smoothly. Both sites are definitely worth a comprehensive visit.

Worth the visit despite the hot

This tour offers the opportunity to explore a side of the city that otherwise seams far and difficult. Azam, our guide, was very caring, knowledgeable of the history and very interactive with us. I hardly recommend this tour!
