My wife and I recently returned from a three week tour of India organized by Taj Tour.

The expression 'Incredible India' is true on so many levels. The palaces, forts and temples are incredible as are the markets and religious ceremonies. For a North American, the driving on the crowded roads filled with every manner of vehicle, people and animals is also incredible. While people immediately think of the Taj Mahal when they think of India, we can now say that the Taj Mahal is only one of the countless things to experience in India.

Our tour took us from Delhi, Varanasi, Khajuraho, Agra, Jaipur and Udaipur in the North to Mumbai then on to Chennai, Madurai, Cochin, Mysore and Bangalore in the south. We had 8 internal flights, one train trip and countless car trips. We saw things by boat, car, foot and elephant.

All of this was flawlessly organized by Taj Tour in Canada and there partners SITA in India. No matter where we went or when we arrived a representative, driver or knowledgeable tour guide was there to meet us. The hotels were mostly good to excellent as was the food. Considering all that we saw and experienced during a very hectic three weeks, the tour was remarkably stress free.

We highly recommend that anyone planning such a trip should let Taj Tour organize it.

Thank you Taj Tour for an outstanding tour of India & Nepal. Unparalled personal attention and well organized tours provided an exceptional holiday that I shall remember for the rest of my life. I was even provided with a personalized tour of Bhariperi (Benares) where my ancestors are from. When I return to India, it shall definitely be with Taj Tour.

Thank you so much for the organizing you did for our trip.Everything went very smoothly. TAJ is a great organization. They efficiently took us through all the check-ins. The guides they had for us were very knowledgeable and gave us great tours. You are right - it was a hectic tour. We could have used a free day in Delhi before starting the Golden Triangle tour, but obviously we didn't have the time. We are so glad we were able to get to Ranthambore. We saw a tiger on our very first safari. The agent in Ranthambore went out of his way to ensure that everything went well. He was able to get us the jeep safaris for 3 of the 4 times. The switch to the Tiger Den on the second day was not an issue for us. The hotel facilities were actually better than the Ranthambore Regency, although the food wasn't quite as good. The other hotels were all top notch as far as food and accommodation were concerned. We were very impressed with our driver. He was a good driver and was able to answer our questions as we were going from city to city. I certainly would have no hesitation in using and recommending Taj Tour.

Again, thanks so much.

Delhi, the capital of the nation, typifies the soul of India, where many layers of civilizations flourished for more than three thousand years. There are many Mughal architectures and monuments reflecting different periods of history.

Taj Mahal, near Agra, is not only magnificent, but also the arrangement of its whole complex of the related buildings and gardens is geometrically beautiful. Without being there, there is no way to appreciate its grandeur. No wonder Taj Mahal is one of the "new seven wonders of the world" chosen in a global poll.

Jaipur is often called the pink city because many of its prominent buildings were built with pink sandstone. It was the first planned city in India with networks of gridded streets. An elephant ride reaching up to the Amber Fort is enjoyable. Once on top, strolling through the sprawling complex of courtyards and halls was fascinating. Jaipur is now one of the most important heritage cities in India, and is a must-see for tourists coming to India.

The services for this tour were excellent. We were greeted warmly by the representative right on our arrival to Delhi's airport. Each link of the transportation, such as from airport to hotel, hotel to sightseeing, and from one city to other city, was well connected. The air-conditioned car used throughout the trip was comfortable. Our English speaking local guides and the driver are friendly and very knowledgeable. Not only they described thoroughly the places we visited, but also patiently answered our many questions. Consequently, we have learned more about the history and culture of India, and have better understanding of the daily life, religions, and customs of the Indian people. The accommodation in our tour was good, and particularly, the rooms in Holiday Inn in Agra and Jaipur were spacious, well equipped, and comfortable. The food suited us provided we chose the not too spicy one.

Thank you for arranging this trip for us!
