    Bout India is a young dynamic travel company that specializes in personal planned trips to India. We recently used them based on recommendations from friends for our three week trip in north west India and we were not disappointed. The pre- trip planning through emails was convenient and they were very prompt in their responses. They were able to adapt and change plans as we continued to shape our trip. They made recommendations so our trip would be smooth and hassle free. All the domestic flights we flew were booked ahead of time and they took care of any changes in the flight schedules due to changes by the airlines. We were confident that when we arrived in India, our trip including hotels, guides, drivers and flights would be set up for us. While in India, we were in constant touch with the company and felt that they were making sure that our trip went according to plan. Everything was excellent and we had a fantastic trip!
