Would definitely recommend this tour... - <p>Would definitely recommend this tour - they were organized and professional from start to finish. Prior to arriving in India, Raj provided all the necessary information and made sure that any question I had was answered promptly. Once we arrived in India, everyone we met and worked with was extremely helpful as they guided us through the entire process. One thing that I really appreciated was that we were provided pictures and contact information for each person who was going to meet us at each point hotel pick up, train station transport pick up, tour guide, etc. and that provided a great deal of comfort.</p>
