The stores were beautiful offering all handicrafts and local goods but if you are not prepared to buy anything, just say NO right away or else you will waste your time. Anyway, overall, this was a good tour. Some of the itineraries were skipped and I did not discover it until after I got back to my hotel and reviewed the itinerary for that day per the brochure. When I asked the driver the next day, he said that the sites were closed on that certain day. My question is why the places were on the itinerary if they knew that the sites were closed on that day. I started my tour on a Sunday and there were 2 Unesco sites which were closed that day. The hotel rooms were good and comfortable. My stays at the castle inns were great. My driver for the entire tour was very polite and safe driver. His car was clean but the passenger door was not opening correctly. The guides were excellent. I have mobility issues with fast walking and stairs so they were very patient with me and assisted me with uneven surfaces. I love the culture of India. It is very "loud" in terms of colors, traffic, people, but it is a feast for all your senses. It was a hit and miss with the food for me because most of the time, I ordered from room service. But the roadside restaurants we stopped at were very good. There are long drives between cities/regions - longest was about 5 hrs. Special shout out to my guide at Taj Mahal - he was an excellent photographer and I had so many compliments for my photos there. I would like to go back and make other trips to other regions of India.
My driver was excellent.

However there are few things that stood out. For instance, at Safari Park our group did NOT see any Tigers, cheetahs, of wild cats. Tourist guy kept insisting there are 80 Tigers total. Well we in our car Did NOT see any at All.
I then went online in the hotel and Read Reviews and came across several couples Also mentioning in the review they Did NOT see any Tigers even though they went twice in 1 day to Tiger Safari morning and then again in the evening, NO TIGERS.
Tourist guy kept showing pictures of Tigers that were taken 15-20 years ago.
Not Sure What to Say??!!!

We were fully taken care by our driver Narendra and guides did amazing job with great knowledge in every city they are representing, the selections of hotels and restaurants were all very good specially the castle stays, if anything to improve maybe the hotel in Udaipur could have done with an upgrade, but all in all we are happy and appreciated the way Swatik India Tours provided an amazing journey.

You really need to list the prices of the entrance fees if they are not included. Some days were very expensive and as we don’t like to carry a lot of cash we need to know beforehand how much the day will cost us.
Amazing Trip and experience

Wow! Such an unforgettable time, such an amaizing five stars experience!
The trip was very well organised - every single day of it was different, special, cultural, emotional, ....everything was floating smoothly and on time. Just 11 days, but you get to see and do so much, certainly made a big bucket full of memories
The accommodation was fabulous in a different way at each stop , /especially the Castles!!! / All the places had a good selection for breakfast.
Even the weather during our trip in early February was lovely and warm, but you definitely need some adequate clothing for the Safari - another WOW! experience, as it's always colder on the teritory of the National Park.
During our trip we mainly ate local or at the hotels' restaurants /no a single health problem .
We definitely would like to say our HUGE thank you to our amazing and skilful driver Vishnu! Without his really outstanding service, his kind and selfless assistance and support when needed, without his bright and friendly smile during the entire trip, we wouldn't have had the same amazing time! He always was ready to go the extra mile for us just to be sure that we were feeling good and safe or just to enrich our knowledge and experience of his beautiful country. So, many thanks to you, if you read this, dear Vishnu .

My only issue was that when booking I was of the understanding that I was taking the last spot on this tour of 10. So I was very surprised that our group was just me and guide and driver.

The accommodation and transportation are all well planned even with horrible traffic conditions (probably the busiest and craziest) cows, feces, and trashes all over the roadways, we had a great time to experience different culture and beautiful castles and mahauls.
The driver and the tour guides were very good and knowledgeable. The tour sites were beautiful and very economical.
This tour was made very special by the driver Sandeep who catered for our time schedules and needs. His attentiveness and flexibility made the trip an enjoyable experience.

Hotels good and tour sights exactly as described. The hard sell on "hand made" rugs, crafts, jewellery etc, take up too much time, so if everyone agrees stand your ground and keep these visits to a minimum to allow more time for sights that you really want to see. Long drives can eat into your own time but this is a tour with long drives so be realistic and know you may not get free time. All in all this tour packs in a lot of stuff so it is good value if you're on a timetable and want to see a lot. Enjoy
