  • Indian Royal Retreat: 5-Star Tour w/visits to Varanasi and Khajuraho reviewer 1
    · March 15th, 2023
    My focus of this tour is to understand the Hindu philosophy and religion through the visiting some essential heritages such as Varanasi, Khajuraho, Jaipur and so on. I believe that without strong support of Mr Sshuhul Kaul, a local Indian trip manager who has tried his very best for organising of my trip travelling, a long distance from New Delhi, I would not reach my goal. Thank you so much Mr Kaul, I recommend to Indian travellers that they should book the Wanderful-Holiday Trips to India, having a manager like Mr Kaul, you will enjoy the rich cultures in India and would have so much fun with activities with kind assistance.
