    It was a wonderful full-day experience with Ammol and Aman. From a serene sunrise boat ride on the Ganges to exploring many temples with insightful explanations, every moment was memorable. The visit to Sarnath was especially fascinating, thanks to an excellent guide. Highly recommended!

    Shivam was an exceptional tour guide. From the moment we met, he went out of his way to make us feel at ease. We thoroughly enjoyed every part of the tour, and he even assisted us the following day. I would absolutely do it all over again—100% recommend!

    Мохан Сингх прекрасно снимал фотографии! Машина была классной и осматривать было легко. Я много спрашивал гида, и он ответил на все вопросы. Спасибо за весёлые воспоминания о Индии!
