    Very well organized, with friendly, knowledgeable and engaging tour director, using humour to help learning experience. Safety was key, with excellent driving skills and hand sanitizer being used at the end of each visit, prior to re-entry into bus. Great selection of stunning experiences and accommodations, as well as amazing food selections, always offering an opportunity for further cultural emersion through gastronomic experiences.

    Great tour Director, hotels, food, and transportation between hotels and airports in India was the best we ever had and we have traveled a lot (65 countries). The hotels were a step above and we were well taken care of the whole time.
