Informative and relaxed - The tour was excellent, the tour guide informative and had a clear accent that was easy to follow. The sita and tabla players was a nice touch at the start of walk and the dancing was a nice way to finish. I particularly enjoyed walking through the streets as we went from temple to temple seeing the priests and others undertaking rituals or simply going about their business. A great introduction to the temples and the day.

Disappointed - The expectations set up by TripAdvisor were not met. The guide was extremely knowledgeable but it feels as if he was set up by a third party. He did not know which temples were supposed to be included in our tour. He did take us to very interesting temples and showed enthusiasm in the history of the temples. But our ‘6 hour ‘tour of the temples’ was over in 2 hours. One of the temples listed by TripAdvisor (which should have included admission) was only visited because I had to show the guide the list. And we did NOT have tickets to enter (which apparently are supposed to be set up in advance online).

Avoid - Extremely disappointed with over priced tour - I have been travelling all of India (and Asia) for the past 3 months and this is the worst tour I've been on. You are better off on using Uber to get a taxi between the temples. Lingaraja Temple is only accessible for Hindus so important to bear this in mind if you are not Hindu. Rajarani Temple is the only Temple that charges a fee for visiting out of the temples listed. The guide arrived much earlier than what we booked. It was difficult to fully understand even when booking an English guide. I would suggest you check with your hotel for trips as this is a complete rip off. The tour for specific temples was done in less than 3 hours, it was a completely overpriced and not worth it. The guide also mentioned that the tour company has ripped us off and you should not expect to pay more than 6000 rupees (this would include going to the famous Konark Sun Temple too). I wish I had listened the person who had reviewed this trip negatively, they were 100% correct. Please avoid this company and tour, Bhubaneswar doesn't have a lot of legitimate tour experiences advertised online so go with your hotel.
