The tour guides(Mahesh, Ashok, and Bishnu) and drivers(Bittu & Manoj) were excellent. I will highly recommend them. The review of four starts of the possible five is NOT a reflection of the tour guides or drivers(who were excellent) but the hotel accommodations. The guides and drivers were five stars. But The hotel accommodations were not. Of the 5 hotels we stay, only two were fine the hotel(Jaipur&Delhi), and the other three hotels were not as expected even though we paid extra for the accommodations. Overall I will recommend this tour.

The logistics were flawless - our tour starting the day after we arrived, but we were able to ask to be met at the airport and transported to the hotel they arranged for us as an extra. From the beginning, everything was very smooth and our guides were terrific - especially Ravi and Ashok. Their conversational knowledge kept things interesting and they were very flexible with how long we wanted to spend at each site, and knew some interesting additional places. We are already making plans to return and look forward to working with this company, and these guides again. We feel as though we have good friends in India now!

Fantastic. A lot of distance to cover, but our driver KK Sharma was wonderful. Gave us space but guided when needed. Tour guides were great. Would do the trip again if we had KK looking after us!
