TESTIMONIALS

Amazing company with a good cause

If you’re looking for a tour of Jaipur look no further than the Pink City Rickshaw Company. Not only are the Rickshaw’s an awesome shade of pink, your contribution helps to give ladies from poor income households and slums a living wage! I felt safe and had an excellent time with my beautiful driver Komal at the wheel.
They’re highly professional and really care about you having a great tour of Jaipur

Lovely customized shopping tour

I had a blast with the Pink City Rickshaw team! They customized my tour on my last day in Jaipur and we had a great chat about their work and organization. Highly recommend and wish I knew about this earlier. Looking forward to future collab possibilities with PCR and Access Dev.

An Excellent Way to See Jaipur!

I took the morning Wake up with Jaipur tour and had Renu as my guide. She was absolutely wonderful- friendly and all smiles. I loved that the tour, while visiting major attractions, still felt more authentic – giving an insider look to the every day life in Jaipur. I had a wonderful experience, had the opportunity to check out locations that I otherwise, perhaps, wouldn’t have and helped support a phenomenal mission of empowering women and minimizing poverty. Love what Pink City Rickshaw is doing with their initiative and wish them all the best. Would highly recommend their tours!

Don’t hesitate to book a tour with Pink City Rickshaws, Jaipur

Did a great morning tour with the very lovely and ever smiling Anita this morning – such a unique way to see the city. She was a fabulous host, her driving was immaculate (put the rest of Jaipur drivers to shame) and I really appreciated the care she took looking after us both – I would highly recommend taking a tour with Pink City Rickshaws, not just because of the amazing female empowerment project at the heart of it’s being, but also because the ladies also really give you a great tourist-friendly (no commission shopping being pushed) experience.

Women rickshaw drivers at the vanguard – go ladies go!

Spent an enjoyable two hours with this women owned and run social enterprise which trains disadvantaged women to be rickshaw drivers as a way of economically empowering them. Ranu our driver was great and took us on a tour, with stops at interesting places. Whilst it was a little more expensive, you know that profits are being ploughed back to support more women. Travel in style whilst making a difference.
