    The services throughout the India trip were excellent. Local guides made history come alive at every stop. Hotels were standard three-star properties. Wildlife safari arrangements were smooth, and the boat crew in Alleppey served delicious Kerala meals. The itinerary balanced sightseeing and relaxation perfectly. Everything was handled with genuine care.

    We booked this South India tour package with 4-star hotel stays, guides, and transport included. Everything ran smoothly. The driver was polite and punctual, and our guides in Mysore and Cochin were very knowledgeable. Safaris in Nagarhole and Bandipur were organized well, and we enjoyed the Alleppey houseboat overnight. Overall, a very professional setup with great attention to detail.

    Everything-city sights, heritage, nature, and relaxation. I loved exploring Bangalore gardens, the royal splendor of Mysore, and the tranquility of Kerala backwaters. Local guides were excellent storytellers, and the driver was reliable throughout. The safari at Bandipur was exciting even without spotting a tiger. The tea gardens in Munnar were stunning. Hotels provided warm hospitality, clean rooms, and local meals. Wonderful trip from start to finish.

    Traveling through Karnataka and Kerala was an absolute joy. The cultural contrasts and scenic landscapes kept everyday exciting. Local guides were professional, sharing interesting stories. Wildlife safaris were safe and fun. Alleppey houseboat experience was peaceful, with great food on board. Hotels were well-chosen and comfortable. Highly recommend this trip.
