This tour was definitely worthwhile. KR market is a vibrant and bustling place, even more so for me since I took the tour on a Sunday which as I've been told is significantly more crowded than other days. I will admit, it might not be a type of crowd for everyone. I also enjoyed how Vignesh was able to share a glimpse of Tipu Sultan's life in a way that even a foreigner can easily appreciate. My guide's knowledge of the local history was fascinating, and the stops along the way felt designed to build up on the story of Tipu Sultan's life. Overall the tour was great.

Vignesh was an excellent guide. He was very knowledgeable about the sites we visited and provided in-depth answers to all of our questions.

This is a great walking tour. You get to see a lot of cool sites in a short amount of time. I was able to fit this in before I went to the airport to fly home.
