Balla was a wonderful guide, so kind and proud of his home city! He was very patient as we stopped to take many photos and was willing to walk up and down sooo many steps in the sweltering heat. Thanks Balla!

Balla vous montre un chemin au coeur des mystères et des beautés de Bénarès, un émerveillement ! Et toujours Balla nous surprend, nous amène dans des endroits cachés et magique. Bénarès coule dans les veines de Balla, toujours calme, toujours avenant, une rencontre formidable !

Balla was very nice and willing to adjust the tour to my personnal interests. I was not feeling well during the walk so we had to shorten it but he took time in the afternoon to show me the stuff i misses in the morning. He is very happy to share knowledge about his culture. Would recommand to anyone who want to have a better understanding of the city !

Balla is a great Varanasi (Kashi) native guide. He has the exceptional skills to transfer his knowledge in an enthousiastic way to the tourist. Helpful and thanks to his clear language one feels really @ home in Incredible India. Without hesitation one of the best guides I ever met!
