Sam was wonderful to work with. Before the tour she followed up promptly and answered my questions. We left the order of the tour to Sam to decide and we started with the flower market after -being picked up on time. This was an amazing experience, both inside and outside the main building. Overall the tour was excellent and was at our pace. We did not feel rushed and thought we had made the right choice using this tour operator. The gift at the beginning of the tour was very thoughtful and will bring back fond memories as will having lunch at a wonderful restaurant. To us, the least enjoyed experience was the museum at the end although I did find it interesting, not so much my husband and the time at this location was just right. Again at our own pace.

Bharat is a wonderful guide, and we must say that the city is much more than just an IT hub if you are in the right company, like we had of Bharat's from BnM. After spending 15 days in India, our departure was from Bangalore and we had kept an extra leisure day on purpose, to grab this opportunity to know the Silicon Valley of India well. And he totally met our expectations. He gave us one of the best tours till date in India and was very knowledgeable. The day started early, and was long, but his energy level never came down - he shared interesting facts about all the attractions, took good care of our food likes and dislikes, and the best part, being born and brought up in the city he knew its history, people and places well. We are definitely going back with a Bagful of Memories!

Had an amazing day seeing all Bangalore has to offer. Sam was everything I could hope for in a guide - professional, knowledgeable and not pushy at all. I got to see everything I wanted in the short time I had in Bangalore and overall was a great experience. Sam, I cannot thank you enough for such a wonderful day seeing the sites of Bangalore. You are a true ambassador for your city and for India!

Let me tell you that I am a very choosy person and have high expectations for the service I pay for. It was my parents' first visit to this part of India and they had been looking forward to explore the interesting places and experience the rich culture of Bengaluru. However, I myself had shifted to the city just some time back, and hence, was new to it. So I decided to take a professional help - someone who doesn't only know the city well, but also understands its culture, history, cuisine, traffic, visiting hours of places etc. And boy, could I have asked for more? As I said, I keep high expectations from the service I pay for...& BagsnMemories not only met my expectations, but exceeded them. When my parents returned, I was surprised to see that even in this old age, they didn't at all look tired after the tour. Rather they returned fresh, with a smile and satisfaction on their faces. And after listening to their experiences, I give 10 on 10 to BagsnMemories and their polite, knowledgeable and customer friendly staff, especially to Sam. To name a few things I liked the most about them- *There were no hidden catches - what they promised, they delivered *They pay attention to individual needs of their clients e.g. my pure vegetarian parents don't even eat onion-garlic - Sam knew where to find such food *Instead of tricking my parents into buying overpriced merchandise, they showed them genuine places to buy genuine products at reasonable prices *Above all, they felt like family rather than service providers, yet were very professional. Overall, a very satisfying experience and would love to contact them in future too.

Today was my first time in Bangalore and I only had a day to see the city. I was worried about not having enough time to visit the places I wanted to see, but my tour guide Samriddhi was so efficient and effective. I was able to see all major highlights of the city, in an air conditioned car in 6 hours despite the usual city traffic. We started at Tipu Palace, then visited Swamy Temple, had a great 1.5 hr walk in the LalBagh Botanical gardens ... We walked around the park, visited Gowda Tower, Glass House, Bambu Garden, Topiary Garden, Lotus pond and the lake. After the park, she squeezed a short visit to Technology Museum ( a great place spend time with children who might be interested to see how things work) and Archaeology Museum (a great collection of historical sculptures). We made a quick stop in front of famous Court House to take picture... We finished our tour at Bangalore Palace. A must see place in Bangalore for sure. you need to pay 300rp extra to take photos and you can get an audio guide for free and listen the story of last Maharaja's private residence... Iskcon temple was closed by the time we got there, so if you plan to visit, maybe start the tour at this temple first.. Samriddhi was very friendly. She was very knowledgeable, definitely enjoyed what she was doing and made me feel good too. Weather was warm with nice breeze, it really helped when walking in the gardens. and she didn't complain as I made her walk hours in the Lalbagh park with me.. She paid for all my entrance fees and let me pay her at the end in USD. I recommend this tour to everyone visiting Bangalore. She is very good and efficient. You will not be disappointed in her tour..
