Come join us for a Pune Street Food tour trying Vada Pav (aka Indian Burger) for the first time. Indian Street Food in Pune is legendary and with unlimited choices. Fortunately, our guide Dharmesh took us to a few of his favorite local spots where we had the opportunity to try sugarcane juice, Chai masala tea, Vada Pav and Mastani for dessert. Along the way we also did some sightseeing in Pune, Maharashtra including visiting Shaniwar Wada Fortress, Shreemant Dagdusheth Halwai Ganapati Temple and having our palms read on the street. In terms of attractions Pune definitely has some to offer but we felt like it is more of a foodie city and we'd recommend a Pune food tour over anything else trying Vada Pav burgers and other things.
