    This tour offered a deep dive into India culture and history. Delhi and Lucknow were vibrant and rich in heritage. Ayodhya and Varanasi provided peaceful, reflective experiences. Jaipur, Udaipur, and Pushkar showcased royal architecture and colorful local life. Ranthambore safaris were the thrill of the trip. Hotels varied, with some older properties, but overall comfortable. Guides were knowledgeable and accommodating, sharing stories and insights at every stop. Truly great experience in India.

    Sightseeing tour was fascinating, especially the contrast between great historical context, while the rickshaw ride through Chandni Chowk was chaotic but fun. Lucknow Imambaras and Ayodhya temples were culturally enriching. Varanasi Ganges boat ride was serene and spiritually moving. The Rajasthan segment-Jaipur, Udaipur, Pushkar-was visually stunning. Ranthambore safaris added adventure, though the early mornings were challenging. Guides were excellent, hotels mostly comfortable. Overall, it was a well-rounded trip experiences.

    Our 20-day tour of India was truly unforgettable. Historical monuments to Varanasi spiritual vibes, every day brought something new. Local guides were knowledgeable and friendly, explaining the history of each site. Ranthambore safaris were thrilling, especially spotting tigers. Hotels were comfortable, though a few were slightly dated. Travel between cities was smooth, and flights were on time. Overall, a well-organized tour and sightseeing.
