I had a great time the places where amazing and CEO and assistant where great. done things iv never done before seen things iv never seen before I loved the lakes in Udaipur and the general vibe in Jaipur I loved surfing in Varkala and the boat ride in the backwaters If I was to have one complaint it would be that two nights in Pushkar was too many I would rather have an extra night somewhere else. one night in Pushkar would be perfect.Show more
