From archaeological adventures to high tea in a day …. Navin made our 3 tours memorable.
Navin was funny, entertaining and very knowledgeable about the history of Hyderabad and India. Navin went above and beyond to have all our needs met.
What a wonderful experience!
If you are in Hyderabad definitely give Navin a call !
Many thanks Jenny and Peter Kellahan
Thank you Jenny and Peter! I had fun taking you around and sharing my city with you :) Looking forward to seeing you back in Hyderabad!
Finding ourselves in Hyderabad with time on our hands, my wife and I contacted Navin. He tailored 3 days of tours for us using his expert knowledge and sense of humour. Included was a car with a capable driver, which is so important in the rough & tumble of Hyderabad streets. Navin knows & understands the needs of his overseas clients, has worked closely with Westerners for decades & peppers his commentary with humour and interesting anecdotes. Naturally we enjoyed the fabulous sights of Golconda Fort, Nizam & Sagar Jung museums, Falaknumar Palace and the Charminar area. On an occasion when Navin could not accompany us due to a conflicting engagement he arranged for a scholar named Harsha to provide us with fascinating insights. We have no hesitation in recommending Navin and his Hyderabad Walking Tours to anyone wanting to see Hyderabad’s treasures, but also understand the history and culture which underlies them.

Thank you Alan and Chrissie! I'm glad you enjoyed yourselves, and hope to have on our tours again in the future!
The tour was amazing! I learned a lot about the city of Hydrabad history! My tour guide Navin is very knowledgeable about his Indian culture. I will come back to take another tour.
Thank you Anthony! Really looking forward to having you on another of our tours!
Being a true blood Hyderabadi, who’d have thought I’d be blown by a Hyderabadi experience. Well, I was. A food (and heritage) walk with Navin Sigamany did that for me. It’s an experience that inundates the senses in ways way more than one.
Walking through the ancient and narrow gallis of Charminar, taking pictures of nooks and crannies from history, the little titbits of information he comes up with, the stories he tells you from times gone by….and the food...well mashallah.
What’s more, he not only knows what to eat... and where to eat... he’ll even tell you how much to eat. Else there’s no way you can do that list….paaya, bheja fry, tandoori roti, kesar chai, shammi kebab, falooda, sheekh kebab, royal fish, osmania biscuit...the list just goes on.
You eat, and you walk, and you listen, and you gaze, and you eat some more and walk some more....and before you know it, it's about ten kilometers and four hours in....hours so well spent !!
Thank you Smitha! Really looking forward to hosting you in the future on one of our experiences!
Navin was an excellent guide. Friendly and only too happy to provide answers to the many questions we had. Walking and (attempting to) drive through Charminar during Ramadan was a highlight. Going to Shadam for lunch to have a Chicken Biryani and being introduced to a Thums Up drink for the first time was also great. Highly recommend to do when you first get to Hyderabad - its a great introduction to the city
Thank you Shannon! It was great sharing my city with you and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Looking forward to hosting you again!
