This is the best way to see the Golden Triangle! We had a wonderful experience on our 7-day tour. We were picked up in Delhi by our driver, Naman, who was professional, friendly, and kind throughout the entire journey. The car was extremely comfortable, spotlessly clean, and air-conditioned, which made travelling between the cities so easy and enjoyable. Our guides, was excellent and really enhanced our experience with his knowledge and helpfulness. Overall, this is a fantastic way to see the Golden Triangle. Having a dedicated driver, comfortable air-conditioned car, and knowledgeable local guides in each city made the whole experience incredibly easy and enjoyable. 10/10 tour — we would highly recommend it to everyone!Show more
