On a return visit to Bangalore, I’ve booked another running tour of Bangalore with Praveen. What an excellent tour. Praveen was able to select a new running route for us that enabled me to explore a new part of Bangalore I am quite sure I would never find without a local guide. Praveen proved an apt and friendly expert who could easily give detail and context to the variety of sites we visited. As a running tour, Praveen kept our pace consistent and casual. We completed 10k in about 90 minutes as we took several pauses to visit a church, Sikh temple and other cultural spots. Our run was a mix of city neighbourhoods, parks and lakeside. For fit business professionals, aircrew or adventurous tourists alike, take the opportunity to go on a running tour of Bangalore with Praveen.
Like many visitors to Bangalore, I was visiting the city for work. This early morning running tour with breakfast was a perfect fit to my work agenda. I would do morning fitness and breakfast anyway, so why not combine it with a tour to know better the city where my work associates live and many come from. Praveen was a brilliant guide. He was prompt, exceedingly knowledgeable, engaging and fit for our laid back running tour of three parks and the neighbourhoods in between. Our tour was a mix of history, culture and discovery of the local flora and fauna, which were all exceedingly diverse and novel. We also attended a local temple and had a very delicious local breakfast, shoulder to shoulder with locals; always the sign of a great restaurant. Bangalore is chock full of fascinating new sights and smells. Having Praveen to curate the discovery of these, while trotting among a bustling morning in Bangalore, is an experience I doubt I will ever forget. His flawless communication and keen listening made him the perfect guide to enable me to rapidly immerse into and grasp the beautiful complexity of this exceptional location. As a bonus, my local work colleagues were both impressed and appreciative of my exploration of their city. This deepened our mutual respect enabling me to increase my effectiveness at work. Win / win.
It was brilliant. I had a great time running with Praveen. He took me to some of the hidden nooks in the city. But the best was the breakfast after the run :-D
After a wonderful experience together in February 2023, I booked another running tour with Praveen and his business. Mr Praveen Singh kindly tailored an amazing tour for me around the beautiful city of Bangalore. Picking me up at my hotel at 6am, he first showed me the incredible flower markets, followed by a great run around the city of Bangalore, visiting most of the key attractions. We ran through Cubbon Park, nice government buildings / places, some churches and temples. We were even very blessed to take part in the Bangalore Marathon (unofficially by running a few KM’s), with Praveen’s expert knowledge of the roads. We went to a local restaurant for breakfast - and had nice coffee, Dosa’s, Vada. Beautiful food! For me personally, this is one of the best ways to see all of Bangalore. But even if you aren’t a runner and prefer to walk, they will be very flexible with your requirements, and have many other tours that they can offer. Praveen is a true gentleman, humble, trustworthy, friendly and honourable man. He has expert English and so very knowledgable with the history of India and the Bangalore city. I look forward to man more explorations and experiences with my friend!
For the second time i booked a running tour in Bangalore with local guide Praveen Singh. For me as a runner this is the best way to explore a city. We went to Cubbon Park. Praveen showed me again the daily life of the people of Bangalore. His knowledge of the history of Bangalore,amazing facts about the fauna and flora combined with 10 km running made it again a wonderful experience. Breakfast with locals also a very nice experience.
