Subject: Feedback on India tour- Elisenda

Hello Shweta & Durjay,
We are now back to the UK after a very nice time in India. We would like to thank you and your team for the organisation, and we also thought it would be a good idea to give you some feedback on guides, hotels, sightseeing.

Delhi
Fantastic monuments,...too short...! I would have liked to see more of old Delhi. The guide was informative and quite friendly, he took us to a carpet shop where we stayed for quite a while (finally we purchased one!). I think that we could have spent the time walking in the old town instead! The Imperial hotel is great we had a great time, and also enjoyed dinner.

Udaipur
The flight was good. The arrival was as good as in Delhi. The guide was the best we had. He explained in great detail all the monuments and places we visited, and also gave us lots of information about the Indian culture and history that we much appreciated. The sightseeing was great. We had dinner at the Lake palace hotel. The dinner was overpriced and not special at all, apart from the views!

Our hotel: udaivilas was also a fantastic experience. Staffs were very friendly and even gave us advice on the prices to pay for some textiles. Dinner at Udaivilas was great.

Jaipur
We were extremely lucky to have Mansing as a driver!! He is the best, always smiling and helpful. The journey was long and quite tedious, but we arrived safely, and had a relaxed evening instead of doing the visit to the temple. The day after we went to see the Amber fort, this was nice. The hotel was fine, food also enjoyable Agra The journey was again quite tedious, but we also managed pretty good with the help of Mansingh!. Our guide was very acknowledgeable. He explained all the history in great detail. We visited a very interesting marble shop, where we purchased a tray. The hotel was good, with beautiful views to the Taj. We had the best music entertainment!
Overall I think that if I had to do the trip again with you.

Hope it helps, and thank you very much, we had an incredible time!

Best regards,
Elisenda & Carles - UK
