Best tour companies for India tours
Based on client feedback, two operators really stand out for Golden Triangle tours in India - Fragrance of Taj and Joyful Holidays. They've built solid reputations for reliable service, skilled guides and carefully designed routes. Sanjeev Paul at Fragrance of Taj gets lots of mentions from our travelers for how he handles the little details - whether it's finding that perfect restaurant or adjusting plans on the fly. Over at Joyful Holidays, Sonia has a knack for quick responses and making things work, even with last-minute changes or special needs. What's nice about both companies is how they blend the usual sites with local experiences. Our customers often tell us they appreciate having guides who really know their history and culture, plus drivers who navigate India's busy roads safely and professionally. They'll take you through Delhi, Agra and Jaipur while making sure you get more than just tourist snapshots. I see lots of positive notes about how both teams handle the practical stuff - good hotels, smooth transfers and timing that lets you actually enjoy each stop instead of rushing through. Plus they're both really good at working around any hiccups that pop up along the way, which is pretty important when traveling in India.
Best places to start your India tour
Delhi works perfectly as your first stop in India, with 88 of our customers choosing to start their trip from the capital city. While some folks begin down south in Kochi or Thiruvananthapuram, Delhi's connections make everything simpler. Book about 3 months ahead - this gives you time for visa paperwork and helps secure spots in those special heritage hotels that tend to fill up fast in peak season. Our guests particularly love staying in family-run heritage properties where you can join cooking classes, watch cultural shows and also get to know the local hosts. Women traveling with our groups tell us they really value how we balance safety with real cultural experiences, like guided market walks and visits to women's craft collectives where they can connect with local artisans.
