Exceptional Wildlife Safari Experience with Alkof Holidays Our recent wildlife adventure in India organised by Alkof Holidays was absolutely fantastic, and we couldn’t be happier with how smoothly everything was arranged. A very special mention goes to Sanjeev, who coordinated our entire trip from start to finish. He organised all of our domestic flights, transfers, and safari logistics, making the experience completely stress-free. We visited two incredible wildlife destinations — Gujarat and Nagpur — with the goal of seeing both lions and tigers in their natural habitats, and the trip was planned perfectly. The accommodation Sanjeev arranged was always lovely, clean, and comfortable, with meals included. Each place fit within our budget while still offering wonderful Indian hospitality and beautiful natural surroundings. Importantly, the lodges were conveniently located close to the safari entry gates, which made early morning safaris very easy. Sanjeev was also extremely attentive to our dietary needs, ensuring that gluten-free and dairy-free meals were available throughout our stay. He remained in constant communication and kept us updated on any schedule changes, which made us feel very well looked after during the entire journey. We truly appreciate the effort and care that went into planning this trip. We highly recommend Alkof Holidays to our friends and family, and we are already looking forward to returning to India in 2028 — and we will definitely be booking with them again. An unforgettable experience from start to finish!Show more
