							We just returned from a well-organized custom tour of North and South India with deluxe accommodation some of which we paid extra for upgrades. The tour of the north included New Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. Then on to Bangalore for a few days and to Kerala, touring Munnar, Periyar Back Waters on a houseboat and finally Cochin. The places we visited were awesome and memorable. The highlight was of course “Taj Mahal”. What a breathtaking experience. We even had a pleasant surprise for the “evening with a local family” in Jaipur! It was an excellent evening with a very nice family. The drivers were excellent. They were very helpful and friendly, always mindful of our comfort and safety. We upgraded to an SUV which was a good comfortable choice as we travelled long distances by road. The hotels and resorts we stayed at were of high quality, some unique. One was a delightful, restored heritage Haveli and the other a high-rise resort on a mountain with fabulous views. The private houseboat was an awesome experience. The captain/ pilot and chef/steward were very helpful and took great care of us. The cook was a young guy who took us to the markets to buy our seafood and cooked the most delicious dishes. It was all made to order! Thank you to the team at Vibrant India Tours for a well-organized custom itinerary. Nothing was too much trouble for any of you. Our queries were always attended to promptly and followed up efficiently. We would recommend the team for your Indian touring requirements. They will customize it for you too!

							We booked a private tour with Karam and Belinda, the Melbourne based arm of Vibrant India Tours. From our first contact things were tailored to our dates and requirements. The advice re our trip being late in the season and the fact that the weather would be hot was duly communicated but we traveled anyway and were very glad we did. We selected the Golden Triangle with Varanassi as our tour.  We were met at Delhi Airport by Nand, who was to be our driver and helper for almost all the trip. His professional ability, courtesy and ability to manage the cahotic traffic was greatly appreciated. We had very good access to all the guides and daily information via a dedicated Whatsapp group. We regularly communiacted with our local tour operator, Gaurav, who is an owner of the company. This method of communication worked very well and even included our boarding passes for the internal flights.  In each city we had a local guide who gave us the information on the sights and answered any questions we had. They all spoke good English and were happy to repeat information if asked and also asked if there was anything extra we wanted to know or see.  We were lucky enough in Jaipur to have a cooking class and dinner with one of the hosts, Gaurav and his wife. This was a special experience. The food was complex to prepare and long experience had enabled Varsha to blend more spices than in the market, into a very  delicious meal. We sat a chatted with them for some time, A real highlight.  Varanassi was also a highlight and well worth the extra flight to get there. The Hindu rituals and religion, the numbers of pilgrims and the ceremonies on the Ganges with around 50,000 people were amazing to witness. Despite all the crowds we felt quite safe and were guided with expertise. It felt more like a festival with parents, children and pilgrims all intermingling.  Our first trip to India was a revelation. The people were friendly and despite the crowds we were very well looked after. We would highly recommend this company to arrange tours to India. With their local and Australian arms it was easy to communicate and they they were very responsive to any concerns and requests.  Marg & Mike
