    · February 23rd, 2025
    A good introduction to some of the highlights of this area and many of the highlights of India. Our guide, Vikram, was very knowledgeable abs went out of his way to give us more than a basic tour. All the hotels were clean with good sized rooms but often they were pretty remote from the main places of interest or had little to do around them. The tour itinerary we were given didn't match that provided to our guide, who didn't know what we had been given. so there was some confusion on both sides.

    My wife and I took this tour with friends, and we did not expect how great it would be. Our original plan was to traverse the country alone and figure things out as we went, but we would not have seen or experienced all the places Travel Talk took us to. Our guide, Sonny Cormack, was great too, as he took us to every destination and left us to explore on our own. We felt safe and empowered to try new things. His understanding of the culture and language made the experience one to remember. We're already making plans to return.
