We had a great time with Paylesstoursindia team and we are grateful for making this Wonderful Tour.Show moreTrip date: November 2025- CBCarole· November 25th, 2025Our tour operator Neeraz was excellent. He promptly reacted to our demands and brought necessary adjustments when required. Would definately go back with Payless tour. However, would pay more to upgrade rooms to 4 starts, although the ones we had were good, but I prefer a bit more😊Show moreTrip date: November 2025

- VLVien· November 16th, 2025Payless tour is really awesome. Neeraj responds very quick to reply to our demand . I recommend heartily this company if you want to have a seamless trip . We took an original tour and added more days / destinations to have a private tour ( 2 persons ) with car and driver during the whole trip . It is really a nice way to explore India . Thank you Neeraj and all the very knowledgeable guides and driversShow moreTrip date: November 2025

David· August 18th, 2025We'd like to thank the travel agency for great arrangements and a driver Mithun who went with us on that fantastic tour. India turned out to be a beautiful country with amazing peope, tasty cousine and breathtaking architecture of temples, forts and palaces. We loved our personal driver who really did a fantastic job. He was so caring and accommodating that it was sheer pleasure to travel with him. Our memories regarding India are so nice and we know that without this tour operator, it wouldn't have been the same. We don't hesitate to recommend those guys to our friends.Show more

Nora· June 13th, 2025My customised tour to India according to the itinerary of Essence of India tour was simply brilliant. Despite being alone on this tour, I never felt lonely or bored. Both the driver Mr. Mithun and the company representative took great care of me. Mithun turned out to be not only a loyal and wonderful employee of the travel agency but also a great friend and a person.I had truly an amazing time in India and felt really safe and comfortable in the company of Paylesstoursindia driver and local guides.They always advised me well and gave me recommendations that were precious. Everything was perfect and I've already started planning another exciting journey to India.Show more

All the places from Delhi to Varanasi were extraordinary and it was extremely really exciting to explore them. Assistance of local guides was precious, we found out lots of facts about India.

Show moreTrip date: May 2025- RHRobert· April 28th, 2025Just coming to the end of our 17 day tour of India and Nepal with Payless Tours India, we couldn't be happier with the package. We chose to do the private car tour which made it very flexible for us - Neeraj was easy to work with in organising the itinerary and other administration. At each site visited, we had very competent local guides join us to explain the history of each location. The highlight for us was to see the Taj Mahal and Mt Everest but there were many other amazing things. Travelling by car, and avoiding internal flights meant some long days driving but we had the benefit of viewing some locations free of western tourists. A special thanks to Mithun, our driver and companion. He was exceptional in his awareness of our needs, offering helpful advice and suggestions and ensuring we got to see the maximum number of places in the time available. His good humour, infectious laugh and positive outlook were very much a bonus. We would have no hesitation in recommending this tour and Payless Tours India as a very good company with whom to work.Show more
