I had an amazing time on this tour. The history of Delhi was captivating, and Shimla had a lovely, old-world feel. Manali and its surrounding areas like Rohtang Pass were scenic and calming. The hotels were all very comfortable, with great service. Our guides were very knowledgeable, and the driver made the long distances feel manageable. I would highly recommend this tour to explore India north.

This was a most enjoyable experience at all levels, the company was excellent, food and hotels of a very high standard and the sights and history we encompassed well beyond my expectations. A special mention of our tour leader Bagghi who was unfailing in his attention and took almost as much pleasure as we did in the sights and sounds of this magical country. Altogether an experience to be recommended to anyone and everyone. Thanks to you all.
