What people love about India Tours from Kolkata (Calcutta)
- 12 Days Adventurous Royal Bengal Tiger Tour With Taj Mahal(ALL INCLUSIVE)
After long so much fun with this tour 12 Days Adventurous Royal Bengal Tiger Tour with Taj Mahal and I cannot recommend it enough. This all-inclusive tour was truly an experience of a lifetime and exceeded all of my expectations. First of all, the tour was well-planned and organized. From the moment I arrived in Delhi, I was greeted by friendly and knowledgeable guides Mr.Hemender Singh who took care of all the logistics and made sure everything ran smoothly. The itinerary was well-balanced, giving us enough time to explore each destination without feeling rushed. The highlight of the tour was, of course, the visit to the Taj Mahal. Words cannot describe the beauty and grandeur of this iconic monument. Our guide provided us with interesting historical and cultural insights, making the experience even more meaningful. The sunrise view of the Taj Mahal was simply breathtaking and something I will never forget. But what made this tour truly unique was the opportunity to see the majestic Royal Bengal Tigers in their natural habitat. We visited three national parks - Ranthambore, Bandhavgarh, and Kanha - and had multiple safaris in each one. Our guides were experts in tracking the tigers and we were lucky enough to see them up close. It was a thrilling and unforgettable experience. Apart from the tigers, we also saw a wide variety of other wildlife, including elephants, deer, and numerous bird species. We even had the chance to go on a nature walk and interact with the local tribal community, which was a fascinating cultural experience. The accommodations throughout the tour were top-notch. We stayed in luxurious hotels and resorts that were in close proximity to the national parks, providing a comfortable and convenient base for our adventures. The food was also exceptional, with a mix of local and international cuisine that satisfied all tastes. Adventurous Royal Bengal Tiger Tour with Taj Mahal was an incredible journey that I will never forget. The combination of cultural immersion, wildlife encounters, and luxurious accommodations made for a perfect vacation. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure in India.

We had a 4 wildlife experience on this trip and I enjoyed this aspect immensely - thank you. However, a 4 50% of the trip is NOT wildlife orientated and I believe this should be reflected in the title of the trip
- 11 Days Exotic North East India Tour Package
Overall in India we find that and have opportunity to go on an 11-day tour of North East India and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The tour package was well-organized and covered all the major destinations in the region, giving us a comprehensive overview of the culture, history, and natural beauty of this lesser-explored part of India. The tour started in Guwahati, the gateway to North East India, where we were greeted by our friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. From there, we traveled to Shillong, the capital of Meghalaya, known as the 'Scotland of the East' for its stunning landscapes and pleasant climate. We visited the famous Umiam Lake, also known as Barapani Lake, and were mesmerized by its crystal clear water and surrounding hills. Next, we headed to Cherrapunjee, one of the wettest places on earth, where we got to witness the spectacular Seven Sisters Waterfall and the living root bridges, a unique and fascinating man-made wonder. The tour also took us to Mawlynnong, known as the cleanest village in Asia, and we were amazed by its pristine surroundings and the warm hospitality of the locals. We then continued our journey to Kaziranga National Park, home to the famous one-horned rhinoceros. We were lucky enough to spot these magnificent creatures during our safari in the park. The tour also included a visit to Majuli Island, the world's largest river island, where we got to experience the unique Assamese culture and enjoy a traditional dance performance. The highlight of the tour was our visit to Tawang, located in the state of Arunachal Pradesh, which is home to the second-largest Buddhist monastery in the world. The monastery was a sight to behold, and we were fortunate to witness the daily rituals and prayers of the monks. The tour also took us to the picturesque Sela Pass, which offered breathtaking views of the Himalayan mountains. Throughout the tour, we were impressed by the beauty and diversity of North East India. The accommodations provided were comfortable and the food was delicious, giving us a taste of the local cuisine. Our tour guide was highly knowledgeable and shared interesting insights about the places we visited. Overall, I would highly recommend this 11-day tour package to anyone looking to explore the exotic North East region of India. It was a perfect blend of nature, culture, and adventure, and I returned home with a deeper appreciation for this lesser-known part of our country.
