Highly recommend this excellent tour agency. - We traveled as a family of 4 from the US, taking our kids to India for the first time. We were fortunate enough to book our tour through Vardhman Tours. From the minute we booked the tour, continuing to when we were picked up at the airport, until we were dropped off for our return flight, the service was excellent.
Our SUV had a wonderful, safe, and kind driver. Every morning, he arrived at the hotel on-time and drove us around the busy streets of Delhi and Agra. Additionally, we had two guides - one in Delhi and one in Agra. Both spoke fluent English, kept our kids engaged, and were kind and courteous. Each morning, both the guide and driver came to our hotel to pick us up. There was no guess work for us - everything was taken care of. Our family highly recommends this fantastic tour group.
