    Shelley

    Asked on January 24th, 2026

    Is there a group tour departing on February 14? I´m alone and I don´t want a private tour. I prefer to travel with other people to socialize, otherwise I find it boring. Are the guides officially licensed by the Indian Government?

    Marlene

    Asked on May 2nd, 2024

    I am represent a group of people who want to visit India from the evening of June 4th. One of us needs to leave on June 9th, and the rest of us would like to depart on either June 10th or June 11th. We are Sabbath observers, so we will be unable to use electronics or travel significantly from around 8PM on June 7th to around 9:30PM on June 8th. If possible, we would love if you offered kosher food. We would love to do a hike or two if that is something you offer.

    Price / Availability
    • Alkof HolidaysOperatorWritten August 2022

      The current tour includes 3 star deluxe hotels, and to upgrade accommodation to 4 star hotels, you need to pay 35% additional charges on the current discounted price. Flights: Yes we can book the flight from Jaipur to Varanasi and Varanasi to New Delhi at an additional cost.

    • E

      Elena

      TravelerWritten August 2022

      Why we pay for the flight to Delhi again? Are you not understanding what is offered in the trip? The upgrade cost for the hotel from a 3 to 4 level is legitimate, even though 35% additional cost to $600 or additional $210 make it expensive.
