Customer Reviews
- EDELWINA· March 23rd, 2024The tour was organized , hotels are great but wifi is an issue ( in the rooms), food is great. The tour guide is excellent ( Karun ) and Vijay was helpful esp when we had the optional tour , backstreet tours . But there’s one problem with picture taking , we had several pictures taken in Agra but I didn’t know that we had to pay for all the pictures . Some shots were horrible !Show more
- Myounghee· March 7th, 2024Overall good. Hotel was not nice as the photos in the brochure. There were three or four stops for shopping, which took very long time. The shopping should be included in the brochure. After 7 days (Delhi, Agra and Jaipur), three people including myself went to Shimla, which was also fun. The travelling times between cities were long, which was very tiring yet inevitable because of the size of Inida. Again, it was a good experience although I mentioned some negative sides.Show more
