I loved every second of these two weeks. The itinerary was really nice, with beautiful cities! I don’t have one highlight, everyday brought so much history, culture and a really nice vibe. We tasted so much food, which I really liked. And aside from the itinerary H knew perfectly what activities or places would match our group. So only positive vibes really, and I am glad that I got to experience India in this way!!

Thay was an amazing tour in in incredible India & Nepal from.the beginning till the end. Our time passed very quickly and was filled with very exciting sightseeing and attractions, such as cooking classes, safari in Chitwan park and moderate trekking in Kathmandu. Everything was well arranged by the tour operator. Our personal driver Mr. Mithun did his very best to drive us safely to all the destinations. He told us interesting stories about India which made us feel very comfortable while traveling from one city to another. Paylesstoursindia showed their Atten to details and took really great care of us. We'll undoubtedly recommend them to our acquaintances and family members.

What our customers ask about Fully Guided Tours & Trips
What are fully guided accommodations like?
You'll stay in comfortable 3-5 star hotels chosen for their location and quality. In Japan, this means places like the Star Gate Hotel near Kansai Airport and Osaka Castle Hotel. If you're headed to Egypt, you'll split your time between nice hotels like the Tolip Golden Plaza in Cairo and boats for your Nile cruise. One happy traveler put it well: "The hotels throughout the tour were all clean and comfortable. Our accommodation was everywhere acceptable and in nice boutique hotels."
How do you get around on fully guided tours?
Your guide takes care of all the travel details, so you can relax. You'll ride in comfortable, air-conditioned vehicles - small vans for smaller groups or larger buses when needed. In India, for example, groups of 4-5 travel in Toyota Innovas. Some trips mix it up with special travel experiences, like taking an overnight train in Vietnam or cruising down the Nile in Egypt. Your guide handles everything, including making sure your bags get to your room.
How active are fully guided tours?
It really depends on the tour, but most keep things at an easy to moderate level. You might walk for 2-3 hours on city tours, climb some stairs at temples or museums, or take optional hikes. In Japan, for instance, the Mount Fuji visit includes some walking at 7,546 feet (2,300m). Your guide will make sure the pace works for everyone in the group, and you'll have plenty of downtime at your hotel to rest up between activities.
How much free time do you get on fully guided tours?
You typically get 2-4 hours of free time each day to explore on your own. In India, for example, many tours do sightseeing in the morning and leave afternoons open. Your guide (travelers often mention guides like Neeraj) will suggest great things to do during your free time. Some tours also offer optional activities - like visiting the Abu Simbel temples in Egypt - if you want to add more to your day.
When's the best time to take a fully guided tour?
It really depends where you're going. Vietnam is best from October to March when you'll miss the monsoon season. Morocco shines in spring (March-May) and fall (September-November) when the weather is warm but not too hot. As one traveler who went to Vietnam shared: "We went in April and had perfect weather - not too hot or rainy, making the outdoor activities much more enjoyable."
