“I did the Chandragiri Cable Car & Monkey Temple Tour as a solo traveler and had a really great time. Everything was well-organized from pickup to drop-off. It was a Saturday, so Chandragiri was a bit busy, but the view from the top was still totally worth it. My guide, Sajina, was excellent—friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everything went smoothly. The cable car ride was fun, and the Monkey Temple was peaceful and full of history. Lunch was also delicious—fresh and satisfying. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to explore beyond the city!”
