About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Sherpa314392375980 contributionsWonderful One Day SightseeingIt was wonderful tour, everything was well organized. Given that that the tour was on the day after Holi, the sightseeing locations were extremely crowded. However our guide Tosif, helped us negotiate the crowds and was very knowledgeable and guided us in shopping at good local markets. Would definitely recommend this tourWritten 16 March 2025
- CaryTrecartin0 contributionsJaipur - Safe and Secure Tour with Driver Abdul and Tour Guide TreeWhile visiting Jaipur I used the services of Reliable India Tours for a full day tour. The car was a clean comfortable Toyota SUV. The Driver Abdul and the Tour Guide "Tree" were courteous and professionaI. I had a few special requests for spots that I wanted to vist and they were very helpful in doing this. I can highly recommend their services! Cary T. ChicagoWritten 15 January 2025
- kayoc20140 contributionsThe best insider's experience of JaipurSam is the best guide I have ever had in my travels around the world. He's knowledgeable, patient, and so much fun. He took us to Hawa Mahal and the City Palace. He also showed us places that are a little off the beaten track, like the Royal Cenotaph. So gorgeous. He treated us like a local and brought us to eat at restaurants we would have never known to try. I had some of the best tikkas and vegetarian Indian food in my life (I will be thinking about the pineapple curry for the rest of my life). Sam let us take as many photos as we wanted without rushing us. He also took some really wonderful pictures of us. We used another guide to go to the Amber Fort that our hotel arranged for us and I wish we went with Sam instead. Honestly, he's the best in Jaipur.Written 13 December 2024
- 842derekb0 contributionsStop looking for other guides and book him NOW!Sam was absolutely amazing and treated us like family and friends. He was friendly, approachable, showed us amazing places and shared great knowledge and insights into the history and culture of these beautifully cultural rich locations. In addition to this, he listened and adjusted the tour to our preferences and was a great listener. In addition to this he showed us outstanding places to eat that no other would know for the adventurous.Written 13 December 2024
- larlab20170 contributionsJaipur done rightExcellent experience with this tour. Would highly recommend for anybody wanting to explore Jaipur with a guide. His hospitality, friendliness and knowledge of the area has earned him these many good reviews. The Tour came with a driver in a good size, clean car. Anticipate visiting beautiful sites, catching the good camera angles, going to local shops where you meet the people who make the items and learn from them (textiles, jewels, rugs). I recommend you come prepared with a bit of knowledge of typical prices for Jems/ textiles or ask Sam about it in advance if you want to buy because they will want you to buy from them as well. For us this was a preferred way to purchase certain items rather than the decision fatigue of the streets. We also had the best lunch in our whole India trip. Thanks Sam!Written 23 November 2024
- Akshay K0 contributions10/10 ExperienceGreat experience. Fun, well-managed, and very informatice. Highly reccomend this to anyone who is looking to explore Jaipur!Written 9 October 2024
- James B0 contributionsGreat way to see Jaipur.An excellent tour taking in all the sites. The tour covered all the key places in Jaipur, with an excellent lunch stop. We particularly enjoyed the fort and the Water palace. Sam has very good English and the driver was also chatty and helpful. There are shops on the tour, they all have them. We politely declined and had no problems. I would recommend this tour for the price and to see the city.Written 8 October 2024
- timglo230 contributionsGreat day tourWe had a great tour with Sam and our driver Hussain. Sam was very informative and pick up and drop off from our hotel was perfect. We had a delicious lunch at a local restaurant as well. Thanks!Written 23 September 2024
- manfiebishop0 contributionsThe best tour guide in Jaipur!Imran was the best tour guide round Jaipur! We were travelling with 4 kids so didn’t have much time to make mistakes but all Imran’s ideas were spot on and most importantly didn’t get ripped off at all! We had him for each day we were in Jaipur and it made our journey very relaxed and enjoyable and most importantly not expensive and extremely knowledgable and an unbelievable driver !Written 5 August 2024
- Emschoed0 contributionsPrivate full day Jaipur tourI highly encourage anyone visiting Jaipur to book the private full day Jaipur tour with Sam. Sam met us at our hotel with his driver and took us to all the sights. The vehicle was comfortable and the driver was there to meet us with a smile and cool waters after each stop. Sam was very easy to understand and extremely knowledgeable about the sights. He has great insight about Jaipur and could answer all our questions. We were so amazed at the architectural beauty we were shown and the intriguing stories of the former Maharajas. Do not hesitate to book this tour you will not be disappointed! Thank you Sam for making our stay in Jaipur memorable!!Written 14 July 2024
- mitzi-meow0 contributionsBest experience in IndiaOne year later, our two days with Sam still stand out as the highlight of our India adventure. He's kind, knowledgeable, and indeed reliable. He took us, beyond the usual fantastic gems of Jaipur, to hidden corners. He showed us his Jaipur, his home, in a way which allowed us a peek into local life. I highly, highly recommend Reliable India Tours. I am so happy we met, and will definitely call on him again the next time we're in the area.Written 4 July 2024

We saw places you don't find in a guide book. Imram is an excellent driver. Thanks a lot. We are looking for tomorrow.Written 19 April 2024
- tonysH9279QS0 contributionsGreat tour with a great guideWe were lucky enough to get Amzad Ali as a guide and Vicki as the driver. What a great team. Guide was very knowledgeable and had a talent for taking photos. The tour of Amber Palace along was worth the money. Beware many areas of City Palace don’t allow photos.Written 29 March 2024
- Passport5882020 contributionsThe Raja of tour guides !We had the best day touring the magnificent Pink City with Sam and Imran (driver). After fuelling up on a delicious authentic lassi we headed for the sites. Sam imparted his vast knowledge with great humour which made him stand out from the usual tour guides . What he does not advertise is that he is an incredible iPhone photographer - we have so many photos of us both - it felt like our wedding day all over again . Precious memories of this beautiful city. Professional and punctual. Happy to adapt the tour to suit us . Lovely jubbly Sam !Written 27 March 2024

I recently went on a tour with my partner, and it was an incredible experience thanks to Sam. He went above and beyond to make our time memorable. Sam tailored the tour to match our personal interests, focusing on textiles and jewelry, which made the experience feel very personal and engaging.
Not only was he knowledgeable and professional, but he also made us feel completely safe and at home throughout the tour. He skillfully handled street vendors, ensuring we could enjoy our time without feeling overwhelmed. He also captured the moments perfectly, taking lots of photos that my partner and I will cherish.
This tour exceeded our expectations, and Sam played a significant role in that. Highly recommend him—10/10 for his dedication, expertise, and thoughtful approach. My partner was thrilled, and so was I!

We had booked Reliable Tours for 2 days in early April. We had Mr. Naeem as our driver and Mr. Mushtaq and Mr. Shoaib (Sam) as our tour guides on the 2 days. We asked for a customized tour since we were travelling with my old Mom and we didn't want to make it very strenuous for her. We selected a subset of the locations to visit. The tour guides are knowledgeable and very easy going. We visited Panna Meena ka Kund and Amber fort the first day, got dropped off for lunch and then later got dropped off for shopping at Bapu Bazaar. On the second day we visited City Palace, Jantar Mantar and did a photo op outside Hawa Mahal. We wanted to get more shopping done on the second day at Johri Bazaar but our Mom was not up for it. They were very accommodating and waited with my Mom in the car till quite late near the bazaar area till we were ready to get dropped off at our Hotel Leela palace. They even took us to drink the yummy local tea served in clay cups. My Mom made friends with Mr. Naeem since she spent a lot of time sitting in the car while the rest of us did the major sightseeing and shopping. We booked them to drop us to the airport for our return. I highly recommend Reliable Tours, specially if you are looking to customize your sightseeing or to just spend time in the city.

My wife and I really enjoyed the Tour. Sam was an excellent guide, showed a lot of knowledge about the monuments and even about astronomy and made us feel free to make changes to the itinerary. Honorable mention to the driver who was the only one of many we caught in India who drove carefully and defensively.

Jaipur is a great destination with some fantastic locations that are worth visiting and spending time with. Unfortunately, my guide Mukesh seemed a little tired of it and spent most of the day talking with his driver. There were brief indications such as 'this is a temple''that's a gate .At the Observatory there was some detailed knowledge given out but several times I had to wait while he finished his mobile phone conversations. Jaipur's roads were crowded with holiday makers and the going was often very slow, but the driver was very good. I am only visiting here once perhaps, and this was overlooked by the guide. I think this could have been a much better day.

Amazing tour. Thank you Sam for the great recommendations throughout the day! We had a very balanced tour from excellent local cuisine and masala, top recommendations of local jewellery and carpet designers while seeing most of the historical monuments. We had a very genuine interaction with both the guide and driver with whom we had both lunch and dinner. Highly recommend if you want to experience both the historical, cultural sides of the city and discover the best local shops!

Asif was an excellent guide and went above and beyond to cater to our NRI Bengali background! He explained the history and interesting facts about each palace and UNESCO Site we went to. He was endlessly patient as we snapped pics and asked him to be our photographer at Hawa Mahel, City Palace, Janter Manter, Amber Palace, and the hidden palace at Step Well. He recommended us a great place to eat- the Curry Spoon! Along the way he entertained us with more modern fun facts and Bengali Associations with Jaipur- ask him about Manjulika and Felu-da. He even stayed late and spent the evening showing us around the crafts of Rajasthan- taking us to wholesale manufacturers for jewelry and block printed cotton so that we could get great deals on our souvenirs! We would highly recommend Asif for family tours around Jaipur!

I originally contact Shoyab (Sam) to agree a 2 day tour itinerary of Jaipur. He responded to email and WhatsApp communications promptly and we managed to agree two full days sightseeing. The days were full and well organised seeing locations in a good order. Sam was flexible with our itinerary and allowed us time to wander around the sites at our pace, we never felt pressured or pushed to move on. We managed to get some great photos throughout the 2 days.
Sam is very knowledgeable about his city and the history he provided us with a lot of interesting information.
The driver was also very courteous and drove safely.
Following our experience I would recommend

Very friendly and very funny tour with Ali as my driver and Asif guiding and taking amazing pictures! Started the tour by going to get some light breakfast at some street food, I would have probably never dared to do on my own. Then visited a bunch of beautiful sites and manufactures of hand crafts that are all able to talk about what they do. If you have always wondered how some of the beautiful carpets, jewelry or even prints are made, I was happy to get to see these handcrafts.
The car trips were very pleasant and a very clean car and the mood was happy and joking which made it such an amazing day, with information and sights I wouldn’t have been able to squeeze into a single day, if it hadn’t been for these great guys!
Oh, and may I add Asif managed to get some killer fotos along the day!
Would highly recommend anyone with few days to consider a day in the hands of these two, to feel like you didn’t miss out on Jaipur while visiting!

It was a good tour experience. I enjoyed it. My guide and the driver were both very kind and warm and very informative. The guide also very kindly took very nice photographs wherever I wanted. However, a few things that were surprising and may benefit other customers:
As you can see, it is clearly mentioned here that pick and drop to "airport"/ "hotel" etc is provided. Unfortunately, they charged me 500 bucks extra although the hotel I stayed in was within 900 meters to Jaipur International Airport, despite me protesting that it was not mentioned on the website when I booked. My advice to future customers will be either clarify this pick and drop beforehand or do not book because 500 rs extra does not make sense. You can go anywhere at a much cheaper rate by OLA/ Uber.
They are disinclined to switch on the ac for the entire period of travel. So, if the Indian heat is what you do not want to experience, clarify this beforehand. Again, a completely AC vehicle where you don't have to constantly request will come much cheaper somewhere else.
Nahargarh and Jaigarh fort is not included at 3500 INR price! They asked me for 1500 INR extra which was wrong.
The tour was not bad; I indeed enjoyed it and both the driver and guide were very helpful. Entire process was very smooth; they were all on time. However, it was not cost-effective for me personally. I could cover a lot more on the government bus tour.

I had a fantastic time on this guided tour. Sam was extremely knowledgeable and explained everything extremely well. He took me to all the best spots in and around Jaipur and he patiently explained all the history and culture of each place. He is also an excellent photographer. The driver was also great and extremely courteous, making sure I'm comfortable. Reliable India Tours is definitely the best way to do a private solo guided tour, and they are definitely reliable. Sam was also sensitive to any special requests. They picked me up from the Airport and kept my luggage safe in the car during the tour. They dropped me off at the hotel safe and sound.
They made my trip to Jaipur very memorable and I 200% recommend going with them.

Hi, I am interested in this tour but my plane arrives at 12:05 pm into Jaipur. Is the tour private for just one person? I also need to know it you can collect from the airport at this time? Kind regards.
