    I purchased this as a group tour, only to find on arrival that I was a group of one. While I had a good time due to my private car and driver with guides at individual sites, I would have preferred not eating alone at most restaurants. Thankfully, Indian people are among the friendliest on the planet and I was very satisfied with the program and accommodations. One downside, I was never sure how much to tip guides and even though I asked for guidance from the tour manager, he refused to even give a broad range of what was typical.

    Very well planned and executed tour. The temples at Khajuraho are so amazing. So big cats during the safaris. The guides were knowledgeable. Enjoyed every moment. Highly recommended.
