    Hi Anthony, Thank you so much for sharing your detailed feedback and kind words about your Golden Triangle with Varanasi Tour! We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed the itinerary, sights, and our guides and drivers — we truly appreciate your recognition of their efforts. Your suggestions about hotel standards, train class, and clearer information on tour type and daily expenses are very helpful — we’ll make sure to communicate these details more clearly with future guests. We’re delighted you had a memorable experience overall and hope to welcome you again in India for another journey — perhaps with that 5-star upgrade next time! ????

    Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We truly appreciate you choosing us for your India tour, and we’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the food, appreciated the assistance of our Varanasi guide on the last day, and were able to visit most of the destinations outlined in your itinerary — including the major highlights across Delhi, Jaipur, Agra, and Varanasi. That said, we’re sorry to learn that parts of your experience fell short of your expectations. We always strive to provide smooth, well-coordinated travel experiences, and we regret that you felt the need to intervene during the tour regarding logistics and guide communication. We did our best to respond to each of your queries in real-time and made sure your itinerary was being followed as planned, even in challenging situations. Regarding your concerns with the local guides, we work with a variety of government-licensed professionals in each city. While we brief them with your itinerary beforehand, at times, communication gaps can occur — and we acknowledge that this should have been handled more seamlessly. We will take your feedback seriously to ensure better coordination and behavior expectations from all partners. Concerning the vehicle, we had arranged a Toyota Innova Crysta, which is the best option available in this category for a group of 5 with luggage. Prior to the tour, we also gave you the option of upgrading to a larger 8-seater vehicle to ensure extra comfort for your family, especially considering the long drives, but we understand you declined the offer due to a tight budget. Even so, we did our best to make the Innova setup work for your group size. We would also like to clarify that our driver was instructed to follow a professional code of conduct, and any deviations from that are not representative of our service standards. We have already addressed this matter internally with the driver in question. As for the sunset cruise in Varanasi — we regret any disappointment caused. You were taken to witness the world-renowned Ganga Aarti ceremony from the boat, which is the highlight of the evening cruise. While the boat remained stationary to allow you to view the full ceremony from a prime location, we understand that expectations may have varied, and we apologize for any miscommunication. We genuinely tried to make this journey memorable for you and your family — including elderly parents and your child — by ensuring your hotel stays, intercity transfers, sightseeing, and meals were all managed as per the package inclusions. We take every guest experience seriously and are committed to improving continuously. Thank you again for your review. We wish you and your family all the best in your future travels.

    Asked on January 7th, 2026

    What is considered luxury on the train please. Pictures if possible.

    Transport
    • Volunteering With IndiaOperatorWritten January 2026

      By luxury train travel, we mean First Class / Premium category train tickets, which offer a much higher level of comfort compared to standard classes.

      LUXURY (FIRST CLASS) TRAIN TRAVEL INCLUDES:

      Private or semi-private cabins (subject to availability)
      Comfortable sleeping berths with clean bedding
      Air-conditioned coaches
      Attendant service on board
      More spacious and quieter coaches compared to general classes

      For your travel date (14 September 2026) and as a solo traveler, we will reserve the best available First Class / luxury category on the selected train route.

      Please feel free to write to me if you have any questions or concerns. Kindly note that First Class seats are limited and trains get fully booked well in advance.

    Sara

    Asked on October 3rd, 2025

    Would it be possible to arrange pick up on that day and stay on the same hotel in Delhi for that night? We can book in our side the same hotel if needed and pay separate to the tour. Also, this tour used to be in offer for around 450€, however I can see prices have increased recently. Any plans to make a discount?

    • Volunteering With IndiaOperatorWritten October 2025

      Yes, we can arrange pick-up on 30 October and an extra night stay in Delhi before the tour begins. This way, you can rest after your flight and start the journey fresh the next day. About the pricing – rates have increased due to high demand and hotel peak season across the Golden Triangle. Unfortunately, this is industry-wide, and while we understand other providers may quote lower prices, we always ensure reliable service and confirmed arrangements exactly as promised.

      Sara

      TravelerWritten October 2025

      Would it be possible to get an early train from Agra to Varanasi next day rather than the overnight train which is sold out instead of changing the whole itinerary? I know what would add an extra night in Agra but wondering if it is possible.
