Parsvanath temple, -
Khajuraho - After the visit of temples at the end of the tour we will be visiting The old village of Khajuraho, here we will be exploring the oldest part of the town while interacting with locals to know the culture and lifestyle of locals.
I want to show people the other part of the beautiful country that India is: Its real culture, local life, its picturesque villages and landscape. This way people will not only experience India in its purest form, but they will easily understand and discover what is behind the beautiful monuments and temples and not just ‘see’ them.
I think monuments are good opportunities to appreciate the art and to know the history but according to me, the Indian way of life and its local villages and people are also good opportunities to know the culture and country.

Great tour of the temples - Had a great day touring with Ankit Chandel. He is like talking to a long time friend, yet very knowledgable about the stories behind the temples. He would go the extra mile to make sure I had no issue checking in with the hotel. And I absolutely recommend getting a tour guide for the tour, as many stories and hidden details could only be better appreciated with a great guide. I enjoyed his tour so much that I also booked a second tour with him to see the tiger reserve.

Excellent and very professional tour guide ! I do recommend Rishi ! - I really enjoyed this tour and was so lucky to do it with Rishi .
It was so interesting to get all the informations, détails about the temples themselves as monuments, the way they were build, when and why, but he also knows how to share his knowledge and understanding on human faith, the roots of budhism, jainist, tantra, hindus, …and clearly explained the différences and believes….so interesting !
The « plus » was the old town tour, discovering the little streets, colourful houses, and listening the stories and way of living in this area where he grew up with his Family.
I highly recommend him !

Fantastic tour with Ankit - This was a truly amazing tour. Ankit blew us away with his mastery of the stories and his knowledge behind all of the carvings around Khajuraho. It is a really beautiful place off the beaten track that I thoroughly recommend getting a guide for to bring the place to life even more.

Wonderful experience of India I’ve never known ！ - Ankit Singh Chandel, my guide in Khajuraho was absolutely fantastic, not only was he knowledgeable but he also spoke easy to understand English, which helped me learn a lot.
He has also multi talents to guide in Spanish and now to learn French.
By his guiding, I could know how people live there, how is children’s education as well as Khajuraho temples history.
If I have an opportunity to visit Khajuraho again, definitely, I will ask him to guide. Thank you, Ankit ！

Started great, then fell off the rails - I wanted to give this tour 5 stars because the beginning of it was great. We learned so much about the history of the temples and about different religions of the country. Khajuraho had always been on my bucket list and the visit to the temples did not disappoint.
However, although we had paid for a tour guide, he continued to leave us throughout the tour with other people who would walk along side us, take pictures and expect a tip afterwards.
Further along in the tour, as we walked through the village, we were continuing to stop and interact with people. After each encounter, our guide kept pushing me to give tip money. By that point I only had enough cash to tip the driver and guide. When I refused to, our guide actually scolded me. It nearly ruined the entire experience. Please stop pressuring tourist to hand out money.
