I went we Ali Mansoor to several walks. He is knowledgeable, updated on ancient history and current status, and equipped with relevant articles or book on any relevant matter. I learned a lot and kept coming to the different tours. The breakfast location he chooses always turn good and he is making sure to educate the participants about the local foods.
Must & Should!!

Mr Mansoor & team from Bangalore by Foot is very friedly, prompt & knowledgeable. They organized Basavangudi walking tour for a group of 40,each and every member of the group enjoyed the tour very much. It was great to know history of Bangalore and he explains it very well with reference to the historical pictures.

He also had arranged a snack time in Vidyarthi Bhavan, it was like icing on the cake. Best part of the tour.

I would totally recommend Bangalore by Foot for walking tours.

Pensioners' Paradise, State capital, IT hub, Start-up leader, Bengaluru is all that,but is just not that. While the collective myopia towards her past is buttressed by the fact that the city bears only a fraction of monuments vis-a-vis Delhi ( 50 versus 3500), Bengaluru is no apologist when it comes to her eventful history and glorious heritage. She has had her fair share of rulers and raiders, martyrs and traitors, builders and destroyers, and able and not so able administrators. They speak to us through their legacy strewn all around , and then there is Mansoor , a qualified architect, and a passionate narrator of the days gone by.
He led me in the footsteps of Tipu Sultan, introducing Kempegowda, the Wodeyars and Hyder Ali along the way, importing and seamlessly weaving in the "French Connection" and Napoleon and George Washington into the narrative. Join him on this trail when you are in the city. As for myself, I have just taken the first footsteps. Thank you, Mansoor!
Interesting Bull Temple Area Walk

Mr. Mansoor Ali from Bangalore by Foot is a very knowledgeable and interesting guide who loves his city and knows a lot about Bangalore. Highly recommended tour during which you get to see really interesting places you could not find on your own.
