    The trip with Vijayindiatours was impressive. I opted for the low-budget option, which you can book directly on Tourradar. If you want to book better hotels, you can simply tell Vijay. Even the tour can be customized at any time if you want to visit more/other sights. Vijay customizes the trip very well according to your wishes. Contacting us after booking was very easy via Whatsapp. The pick-up at the airport went smoothly. I was picked up by our driver Hansraj, who collected me directly at the terminal. Hansraj always made sure that we had enough water and, if necessary, fruit in the car. He made sure that the fruit was washed down with drinking water and not tap water. Vijay is a friendly man who is incredibly knowledgeable and can answer any question you may have. He also knows a lot of people, which is why you often get tea on the house or get to places where normal tourists don't go. In Jaipur, for example, we had tea on the balcony of a friend's store, which is right opposite the Palace of the Winds. You can hardly get better photos of the palace. During my time in India, I stayed in the following hotels/guest houses: Hotel Foxoso venue (Delhi) -> clean room, partly warm water, no card payment possible, unfriendly reception in my opinion Hotel The golden Taj (Agra) -> warm water, but cleanliness in the room could be better Hotel Oman Tiger Seven (Ranthambore) -> very good room with warm water and delicious food Guesthouse of Vijay (Jaipur) -> clean room, warm water in "India style", very nice family Desert overnight stay (near Jaisalmer) -> clean room with fan heater for the cold night Although I traveled alone, I always felt safe with Hansraj and Vijay. Vijay also has his own website, which might be worth a look. You might find the perfect itinerary for you there: www.vijayindiatours.com

    We had asked vijayindiatours.com to make a 10 days tour for us covering The Taj mahal, Tiger safari and city of Delhi and Jaipur. The tour went beyond our expectations. As Sid as Guide has taken so much care with at tentativeness that it felt like our homely caring. We can not forget the attention and personal care that was taken for us. No doublet the hotels were good but the driver and our guide Sid is beyond appreciations they had given us all opportunity to learn and understand India and its culture. The cities covered by them in this tour are the best cities and world's most famous and touristic city as Taj mahal was our dream and it covered so well. Than Tiger sighting was like a life lonf trophy for us. The Jaipur city was the best place for our shopping as. We would like to cover more places through vijayindiatours.com We are again indebted for the services that Sid and Vijay provided us. We wish them a great Luck.
