    Awesome trip with Kukki Sr, who discovered the caves. He wowed us with his English and Hindi anecdotes but I was most impressed with his knowledge of the area and particularly the caves. The caves themselves are stunning, initially I was unsure on their legitimacy but after seeing them and hearing their story I have no doubt these paintings are thousands of years old. Looking forward to returning and visiting other caves and significant sites around Bundi!

    It's a must visit if you are visiting Garh Palace. Don't get lazy to climb a few 100 meters coz the fort ruins and the views from the top are worth your effort in climbing up. The path is rocky, so it's advisable to climb in proper trekking shoes.

    The Bundi Garh Palace and Chitrashala are definitely worth visiting. The entry fee is is 100 for the Garh Palace and is free for the Chitrashala . The enterance is a very steep and uneven climb. Senior citizens may find it a difficult climb . There are toilets only at the entry and non inside the compound. To appreciate the historical relevance , one should take a guide . I had hired Mr Harshit , Cell 87642 10540, who was very good , patient , knowledgeable and added great value to the tour. The Garh Palace is not well maintained . Parts of it are in good shape like the Hathi Entry Gate, the Tall Jhula gate , Diwane Aam . The Chitrashala has a collection of unique minature paintings showing Krishna Leela and is the best part of the tour.

    We were taken to this step well by our G Adventure tour guide. Incredible gasping scene when your eyes first fall on it. Well worth the visit.

    Chitrashala, or Ummed Mahal is a part of Garh Palace and it is probably in the best condition. Deservedly so, because it contains the famous painting room. All its walls and ceilings are covered in fabulous frescoes, illustrating court scenes or images out of Krishna's life in brilliant blue and green. They are in remarkably good state, but totally exposed, so I fear for their safety and protection.
    The royal family still owns the fort and they open only a small part for public viewing. If you know in advance, you can arrange a visit to other parts, including Hathia Pol and the Bada Mahal (where rare Mongol/Asian paintings can be seen).

    It's a deep well marvel but nothing to be missed here. It's bang in the middle of bazaar and can be visited along the way to Bundi fort or any other place. A quick 5 min thing.

    A lake in the heart of Bundi city that adds to the beauty of the landscape when viewed from Taragarh Fort. The lake is dedicated to Lord Varuna (Hindu Water God). There is a temple in the middle of the lake that was half submerged when we visited. We had a mesmerising view of the lake from the Fort. Near the lake, there is also a palace where the kings of Bundi shifted from the main palace after 1947 when Indian got free (Probably, it was difficult to maintain such a big palace in the Fort with all the powers to collect and raise revenue were gone so the kings decided to shift to a smaller palace). Nawal Sagar is surely a gem in the beauty of Bundi and a treat to your eyes.

    Dhabhai Kund, together with Ranji ki Baori, is the best stepwell in Bundi. Bundi is not exactly a main tourist priority, so even here maintenance and conservation could be a lot better. The omnipresent pigeons leave their droppings all over the place and the water is green and polluted. That is a pity, because it is a grand structure and should be cared for.

    A small summer palace for the local ruler and got some exposure because Rudyard Kipling spent a couple of days there writing Kim. In the upstairs gallery there are some black/white photographs of Kipling and underneath a small museum.
    Only if you've run out of better things to do.

    In 1683 the Maharaja of Bundi had some spare money and wanted a long-lasting memory for his nurse. So he built this pretty 84-Pillared Cenotaph in her honor. All in white marble, it holds four chattri placed on the 4 corners, a large Shiva Linga in the centre and really nice carvings around the base. All set in a nice little garden and worth an hour to take some pictures.

    This beautiful lake is just near to the Sukh Mahal and is surrounded by hills from all sides. It provides an amazing view when seen from Sukh Mahal with lotus leaves floating everywhere in the lake. The road along the lake takes a slight circular path and our guide told us that there was a plan to develop this road just like Marine drive in Mumbai by the Oberoi group along with a hotel near the lake. But that plan could not fructify. In fact, one can see the unfinished foundation of the proposed hotel near the road.

    We had an amazing piece of artwork done by Yug that we're so pleased with. He took the time to go through our ideas and get the piece done in a shorter time as we were leaving. We are so pleased with it and it was for such a fair price for the quality and service. Thank you.

    I went with Kukki Senior to a nearby village and it was definitly one of my highlights of my trip! We started in the city visiting the stepwells, afterwards headed to the village were we had chai, were invited for lunch and Kukki sir explained about the history still visible there. As a solo female traveler I felt very comfortable all the time. It was such an amazing day! Can't recommend them enough and can't wait to be back in Bundi to go with them on another tour.
