Great way to experience Jaipur - Our guide for the day was Archet. The bikes and helmets were in good repair. They took a moment to orient us and make sure that the bikes were adjusted well for us. We did a few fun activities in the city, including feeding some of the cows which wander the city. Archet let us decide whether we wanted to just bike around the city, or whether we wanted to make the ride up to Nahargarh Fort. We chose the fort. Be aware that this is an extremely steep ride. All three of us in our group ended up pushing our bikes a good portion of the way. However, arriving at the fort was worth the considerable effort to get there. We took a small tour of the walls of the fort, and had a great view of the city. Then, we returned to the city, visited a vegetable and flower market, stopped for some street food samples from a place that Archet assured us was hygenic (we suffered no ill effects), and visited a man constructing copper and bronze pots in his home. Then we visited the Krishna temple in downtown Jaipur, entering the throng and seeing a very interesting side of life in Jaipur. This tour was a blast, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommend. Thanks to Archet and all the staff at Tour de India!

One of my all time favorite tours - Not only was this the best tour I did in India, it was one of the best tours I've done on all of my travels. Our guides were incredibly knowledgeable and open to any questions. The sunrise from Nahargarh fort weren't to be seen due to cloudy sky, but WELL worth the hike up anyway. Cycling through the empty streets of Jaipur made me feel so much at home, in my own element in a foreign place. It was such an interesting and unique way to see the city!!!! Would totally recommend.
