  • Classic North India - Golden Triangle with Orchha, Khajuraho & Varanasi !! reviewer 1
    · July 25th, 2025
    Hands down, one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had. I did a customized version of the Golden Triangle itinerary with MTA, and while the temples and palaces were stunning, the real highlight was Manish, our guide. He made the entire trip unforgettable. Not only does he speak perfect Italian (huge bonus for us!), but he’s also incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely fun to be around. You can tell how much he loves his country and how much joy he finds in sharing it with others. It never felt like a cookie-cutter tour—it felt like exploring India with a local friend who truly cares. From transport to accommodation, everything was smooth and well-organized. But it was Manish who brought every moment to life. He answered all our questions (even the weird ones!), helped us avoid tourist traps, and was always happy to tweak the plan to fit our pace and interests. If you’re thinking of booking with MTA on TourRadar—do it. You won’t regret it.

    The trip was very nice and impressive. I felt that I was in safe hands. The drivers and guides were friendly, competent and responded to me as a guest. Except for the guide in Delhi, who was probably not having a good day. The hotels tried to provide me with a gluten-free meal. It would be nice if the drivers, with whom you spend a lot of time, spoke better English.

    Have felt very well taken care of as a solo traveler and always welcome. Can only recommend this tour, there are the greatest highlights to see. The guides know what they are talking about through their years of experience. The two drivers, Mr. Mukesh and Mr. Khan, master the Indian driving style flawlessly. I could spend fantastic days in India, big praise and many thanks!!!

    This tour offers the chance to see many of the countries temples, landmarks, and learn the history of these. There is quite a bit of travel involved. Plenty of things to take pictures of. You will see the heart of what takes place daily in India. The guides have plenty of knowledge, and will show you the best photo spots.

    About the "Temple Tour to North India" I belive that a trip to India can be complete and satisfying with the help of someone who will accompany you in the knowlege of its history and complex indian reality. When i arrived in India, i immediately had the perception that i had relied on an excellent, very excellent tour operator. I chose MTA after a careful selections among many travel agencies. During the trip i relaxed, excited, intrigued by. the beauty of this temples and palaces. I have to thank Mr. Manish Jadon a perfect and prepared guide, who organized and managed a special and wonderful trip. He also introdced me to the pleasures of indian cuisine, an aspect of the fantastic harmony that only India can offer. In the near future i think that i will return to India to continue to explore this incredible country, obviolusly with the help of MTA. Thank you! Pietro Piccin - Udine - Italy

    TRIP TO ORISSA-INDIA We have just returned from a trip to India. Of this country we were already familiar with Rajastan, which we visited a few years ago, now our attention was drawn to Orissa, a region of India not too well known and little traveled by tourism. Certainly this was one of the reasons that led us to make this choice, the curiosity to visit an unspoiled area with still some tribal areas. We chose to rely on MTA My tour advisor, an agency found on the internet with great reviews, never was a better choice! Our escort/guide, Manish Jadon, was perfect, he speaks very good Italian, friendly and knowledgeable, he managed to introduce us to that reality really very far from ours. We ate in necessarily non-tourist places and after an initial wariness, the experience really proved to be an added value to the trip! Manish always made himself available to meet our needs even the most trivial ones. In addition, we cannot fail to mention our driver Vibuti, an exceptional driver, great at untangling himself in traffic and on roads that are not always easy. We recommend MTA for their competence and seriousness, valuable travel companions. Manila-Bologna (Italy)
