    Excellent tour. We travelled to so many different places in South India and visited various temples, palaces, gardens and nature reserves. Our daily guides were very informative and showed us the places of interest. Our wonderful driver Mr Shaker calmly and safely navigated us through the chaotic streets and roads. We felt so safe with him. We were well looked after from beginning to end. A big thank you for such a wonderful and well organised trip.
