An excellent tour. We felt so taken care of and managed to see the "must sees". The local guides at each spot were amazing - many were also amateur cinematographers! I got sick in Jaipur and was so looked after by both the local guide and our driver - Ram. Two small downsides: 1. the local guides whip you through the sights - with loads of photos - but there isn't a lot of time to explore on your own. I guess that is because the itinerary is so packed. 2. having to visit the "souvenir shops". I know it is part of the deal with a package tour but we honestly weren't in a position to buy a carpet, or a table, as we are travelling for several years without returning home. It would have been better to have skipped all of this.Show more
