Training batches, conference guests and wedding visitors in the state capital often have a free evening. A tour service shows them Bhopal's lakes, old-city mosques and bazaars, and Bhopali food in a few well-planned hours.

This business runs short, fixed tours of Bhopal for groups: a sunset stop at the Upper Lake, the Taj-ul-Masajid mosque and old-city palaces, a walk through Chowk Bazaar where batuas and zardozi work are sold, and a meal of Bhopali food. You hire buses or tempo travellers from licensed operators for each trip, so you need no vehicles of your own.
Bhopal is known as the City of Lakes, and its lakes, historic mosques and museums already draw visitors. As the state capital it also has government offices, institutions and training academies, so trainees and conference guests arrive through the year with free evenings. The city is also the gateway to the stupas at Sanchi and the rock shelters at Bhimbetka, both in neighbouring Raisen district, and some of those visitors spend a night here.
You need two or three guides who can tell the story of the lakes and of the Begums, the women who ruled Bhopal, in Hindi and English. The hard part is filling tours in the hot summer and the monsoon, and charging more than an auto driver asks for a city ride. Respect prayer times and dress rules at mosques.
Sell through course coordinators at training academies, hotel front desks, wedding families with outside guests, online travel listings and the people who organise conferences.
