What Is It?

Pune is often referred to as the ‘Cultural Capital of Maharashtra’ owing to its rich heritage and iconic sites of interest. Whether you’re a long-time resident, local, or just visiting – there’s always something new to discover in our city! One of the ways you can explore Pune’s history is by taking a guided bus tour – like the Pune Darshan Mini-Bus Tour by GeoDirect.

Why Should I Go?

Starting from the Darshan Museum {near Pune Railway Station}, the tour covers 15 points of interest in total, including Pataleshwar Temple and caves, Dr. Ambedkar Museum, Katraj Snake Park, Agakhan Palace, P.L. Deshpande Garden – to name a few. Only one tour operates per day in an air-conditioned mini-bus, from 9.00am to 6.00pm with running commentary by an English and Hindi speaking guide. The group size is kept small, which we think is ideal for sightseeing tours like this. Food and drinks are not provided – although the tour makes a pit-stop for breakfast and lunch {at your own cost}, we suggest carrying your own drinking water, snacks, sunglasses, and cap. If you don’t speak Hindi or aren’t fluent, we advise you to double-check with the company about an English speaking tour guide.

So, We're Saying...

You can book your tickets via the GeoDirect website and it should cost you around INR 499 per head. The pick-up and drop-off points are mentioned on the RedBus website itself. Remember to wear comfy shoes, and have fun!
