Great day with knowledge guide and safe driver. I would recommend GeTS Holidays. Golden Temple was a bucket list item and well worth the wait.

Shaina from Gets Holiday tour were right on time to pick me up from the hotel. We went to the beautiful Golden temple where I learned so much about Sikhs history. What impressed me is the principle that everyone is equal and they were showing that they were actually sharing food side by side. Shaina help me use my scarf to make the turban. The Jalliawala Bagh border ceremony was fun. Thank you for taking me to purchase silk clothes they are what I was looking for. I has a good time.

We enjoyed this tour very much. Ajay was very polite and knowledgeable about Amritsar. We heard some very interesting stories Sikh history and their contribution to Indian's struggle for independence from British rule, whichwe really appreciated. The Golden Temple experience is very special, a must do. The Attari Border experience was a bit like watching a UK football match, but with Bollywood music on full blast. Kulcha lunch was delicious. Everythng we expected and more.

The experience was amazing. The golden temple was a highlight. Our guide made the experience better with her knowledge of the temple and provided insight into the history and details of the temple. The lowering of the flags was a very interesting event. Lots of pagentry and national pride. Overall a very good tour.
