- Carolin· September 18th, 2025What a fantastic day out! Was a very early start, however it was well worth getting to the Taj for the magical colours at sunrise, not much of a crowd and easy enough to find your own space for those shots. Our guide was great fun and had all the information and history you could need. I highly recommend thisShow more
- Eesha· August 5th, 2025I recently booked a trip to Ladakh with Alkof Holidays, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. As a solo female traveler, safety and reliability were my top priorities — and Alkof delivered on both. The entire journey was handled with great efficiency and professionalism. Every detail was well-organized, and I felt completely at ease throughout the trip. A special shout-out to my driver, Feroz, who was incredibly kind, helpful, and trustworthy. He ensured I was comfortable and safe at all times, and his local knowledge really enhanced the experience. If you’re a solo female traveler considering a trip to Ladakh or anywhere else in India, I highly recommend Alkof Holidays. Their attention to detail, excellent support, and warm hospitality truly made my journey unforgettable.Show more
