We arranged our trip through Payless Tours India and Nepal. We are thoroughly satisfied. Our original plan was to spend 8 days in India and 8 days in Nepal, but due to the unrest in Nepal, we remained in India for the entire tour. Mr. Neeraj Sharma, along with our driver Mithun, promptly created an excellent extended itinerary for us in India. We highly recommend our driver Mithun. What more can be said? He is truly exceptional courteous, extremely friendly, punctual, and reliable. He ensured we felt safe and joyful throughout our journey, making every moment enjoyable. Mithun also shared stories and valuable insights about Indian life and culture, enriching our experience. He deserves a thousand stars, and we will miss him dearly.

Not a relaxing tour but fantastic for those who love adventure, information, history and visiting the places you normally only see on tv. I travelled with my wife and two children aged 17 and 14 and we all got something from this trip and for those worried about conflicts in the Middle East we saw and heard nothing about them and felt very safe and secure on this whole trip. Very warm in July, we got up to about 43 degrees Celsius on the cruise but the advantages are less queues for the attractions. Our two guides, Sohaila in Cairo and Ahmed for the cruise, were extremely knowledgeable and enjoyable to listen to. Definitely would recommend this trip. Only side notes are the attractions aren’t covered in the price of the holiday and are settled when you arrive at the first hotel, tips are paid in advance for the whole trip but everyone still expects you to pay at the time too so you have to either be hard or give a bit more each time, and I would recommend upgrading to flights from Cairo to Aswan instead of the train as we were told the train can often be delayed and take up to 17 hours with no Wi-Fi or anything to entertain you and also upgrade to a flight at the end from Hurghada to Cairo. We had a miscommunication and thought the bus trip from Hurghada to Cairo was about 5 hours but it is actual more like 9-10 hours from hotel to airport. Otherwise try to fly out from Hurghada itself if that is the end of your trip. ?

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."
