The accomodation was very good and so was the food. We felt we could have had more to do and see in Chennai.

We had a very good tour that met all the expectations in the itinery. Our guides were all fabulous giving a lot of information as well as care. Our driver was very good but very quiet. In a previous trip to India our driver was much more talkative. The accomodation was very good and so was the food. We felt we could have had more to do and see in Chennai, as there was little to see in our spare time. An oversight in payment was immediately fixed and the tour company was available at all times for any concerns. As we had to pay an additional payment for being a couple our expectations were very high.Show more
