A Different Side of Rajasthan Traveller Reviews

I was traveling to India for the first time with a friend who’d been there 35 years ago. As two women in their late 60’s we wanted some help and guidance without too much hand holding, this was perfectly arranged into our itinerary. We had a driver throughout the trip who was kind and helpful, we went from Delhi to Jaipur by train then drove to Pushka and onto Udaipur via Fort Kumbhalgarth. We wanted the trip to be about immersing ourselves in Rajastani India, we achieved that in bucket loads! From strolling through New Delhi to early morning markets, rickshaw rides, street food tasting, taking part in a local festival, visiting a block printing factory in Jaipur, shopping for beautiful cashmere, driving through beautiful countryside up to the incredible views from Fort Kumbhalgarth. Then our arrival, as it was getting dark, at our stunning hotel in Udaipur, roaming the streets the next day, more wonderful shopping, a Palace visit, our early morning bike ride into the countryside, a boat trip around the lake and a visit to a treasure store of Indian art and antiques. Sadly we had to come home!

Our trip was put together by Sara, it offered us a great balance of activity and peaceful time, full of a variety of experiences to give us a great taste of India

Integrating the tipping in to basic pay about sums it up.

Travelling to various locations in india with excursions booked around them

Great personal service and very knowledgeable

Our holiday was a varied mixture personalised to our interests in historic towns and sites, architecture, textiles, rural life, wildlife and even the rather niche subject of railways

We are confident that ETG listens to what our interests and preferences might be before constructing an itinerary. They have done a pretty impressive amount of background work to deliver many fascinating and enriching options and not just the standard grand venues offered by other companies. The fact that this was our eighth holiday with ETG basically says it all.

We had a wonderful holiday in Rajasthan which will remain long in the memory. India is a breathtakingly beautiful country full of splendid temples and palaces, noise and colour, peaceful rural scenes and most of all friendly welcoming people. We stayed in some amazing hotels and had brilliant guides who made us feel like friends. Even the noise and bustle is an experience in itself and we enjoyed the contrast between the busy streets, quiet hotels and rural experiences.

Experience Travel is a tailor made holiday company. We have now had two amazing holidays organised by them. Their consultants are friendly and knowledgeable and their itineraries are a wonderful mix of the ‘must see sites’ and unexpected experiences. Most important perhaps for travellers booking this kind of holiday is the high level of support available before and during the holiday. Experience Travel’s assistance and assurance was especially appreciated on this trip when the hotel we were due to travel to on the next day had a suspected case of corona virus. We were contacted by Experience Travel in London immediately and they arranged a smooth relocation to a new and equally amazing hotel. The company is there to support and advise when you need it but treads softly in the background when you don’t.

We started with a few days in Mumbai & ended in Delhi, from where we visited the Taj Mahal. In between we visited Bhopal and Satpura and Kanha National Parks. It was a good mixture given the contrast between the busy cities & quiet beautiful national parks. We particularly liked the peacefulness & variety of wildlife in the countryside. The accommodation & guides were excellent throughout our stay.

Excellent communication in planning the holiday, taking into account our requirements. When we were in India the local agent kept in touch throughout. Excellent service throughout.

Starting in New Delhi we visited, Agra, Jaipur, Jodhpur, Udaipur, Mumbai and finally Goa. In country support was excellent, from travel agent to guides.

Experience Travel Group had arranged three holidays for us. From start to finish the experience has been superb.

booked with Experience and we were very pleased with our schedule and all our activities. almost everything went to plan and the one mishap was not there fault. it was sorted very quickly.

Exrerience Travel

A mult-location trip to Rajasthan and Goa, with a welcome whistle-stop tour of Muscat, Oman, which was stunning. Rajasthan, as ever, is amazing and so interesting. We really enjoyed visits to the iconic sites such as Jodhpur Fort and Musuem and the City Palace, Udaipur. In contrast the wildlife experiences and visit to the Bishnoi peoples was very special.

Overall excellent although we did experience a few glitches this trip
