Unforgettable and safe - Traveling with Sartaj gave us a lot of security, since we came with a preconceived concept that had nothing to do with the experience. He was attentive at all times for our well-being even when we decided to go on our own outside of the itinerary schedule, he wrote to us to see if everything was going well. The places he took us to were beautiful, he explained the history to us in great detail. On long car trips to change cities, we made stops to rest, have a drink and stretch our legs, which was very appreciated. Traveling to India has been a positive experience.

Pleasantly surprised!! Excellent! - At first I was reluctant to take this trip as a tour because I prefer to have freedom of movement, however, when I met my driver Ikrar I was amazed. He gave me the confidence I needed to know what a good decision was, he was very respectful and helpful, in addition to the fact that having the car always ready represented “salvation” against street vendors. I must thank Sartaj who was very kind when I contracted the service and the guides who gave me clear and precise instructions on how to proceed at each stop. Also the good predisposition to take photos in places they know as keys to remember, if they leave this profession they already have a plan B hahaha. I also value the free time they gave me in some places to explore as I wish 🫶🏻, it would be good to apply in others (obviously only for tourists who respect the time and meeting point). I leave you some travel tips: 1) I strongly recommend living this experience, it is amazing! But if it is possible to dedicate more days, obviously between not doing it and doing it in 3 days, go ahead. My point is that the journeys are very long and there are many beautiful places to see, which means that in 3 days you will end up exhausted and without the possibility of having free time. Ask your guide about your itinerary for the day and make adjustments if the proposed sites are not of interest to you. In my opinion the best of the best was Fort Amber, Taj Mahal, Akshardham, Fadepur Sokri (don't think that if you don't donate you can't enjoy the site and pray as you please) 2) before getting out of the car, ask your guide about the dress code, things not to bring to each place - or what to bring (for example, electronics, water, long-sleeved shirts, extra socks or shoe covers). 3) Be careful with street vendors and those who ask for money!!! They are really very insistent, I thank my Jaipur guide who, without asking, gave me tips to deal with them. Likewise, we later ended up arguing with the photographers since the “optional” photos are not like that, they print 10 photos and then want you to buy them because they already paid for the printing. It started at 2,000 R and ended at 200 R but the attitude bothered me a lot, when they were printed they stopped being optional. 4) the above leads me to the fact that you have to haggle! And a lot! Whether they are street vendors or in stores where their guides take them at the price that the seller tells them to offer between 50% and 80% less convinced, they will surely accept them. 5) Be careful with the food if you are not used to it, even international food is spicy 🌶️
