What a way to explore the little French Riviera! I am not new either to walking tours or to Pondicherry and yet I was surprised by both. I had taken the Moscow Free Tour when I was in Russia last year. For a long time, I considered it one of the best tours I’ve done. But French Connections has blown me away with it’s the attention to detail and depth of research. The stories of generals and generals, wine and women came alive and took us back in time.

Beautiful landscapes, visit of a very interesting temple in a small village, and then we went to a farm, where we have been warmly welcomed.

I had recently enrolled in the Exploring India 101 workshop. It was such a wonderful experience. The narrators Akila, Lakshmi, and Nayantara were knowledgeable and so charming. You can see they were  passionate about their stories and had childlike enthusiasm the whole session. The stories were well told and they kept the audience engaged throughout the session. They also kept the audience alert by asking crucial rapid fire questions at the end. I can’t wait for the next set of workshops!

We did the Storytrails British Blueprints tour with Akila. It was absolutely fantastic! Our tour guide was an inspired storyteller and extremely knowledgeable. Fascinating architecture visits, tour of Fort area, all the major sights in North Chennai.

Thank you. Anwitha now enjoys history like she has never done before and is looking for information online as well

10 star experience!
