Dreadful. DO NOT BOOK. Reasons far too long to relate here.
Dreadful DO NOT BOOK. They promoted tiger safari’s while all Nature Reserves advertised to visit were closed (by Karnatakka Government). The unacceptable fact is they failed to tell us although they knew many weeks in advance! We only discovered when there . . . shocked and disappointed is an understatement. Expect to be put in a cramped second class carriage on theUNESCO train, possibly like us, with no window! There were so, so, so many problems with this company. Many changes to original itineraries on which the trip was chosen. Awful communication in India. Tour car is basic, small, cramped, no A/C in rear etc etc. Not suitable or safe for a road trip of nearly 1,000 miles on Indian roads. Drivers wonderful except one who took a short cut against oncoming traffic. If you want to see the quiet Alleppy backwaters you need to negotiate a smaller boat and pay extra! Just one example of misleading description of experiences. Itineraries can't be achieved in a day. We finally did our own thing in Fort Kochin to avoid the stress. We returned from this 14-day Tour, 16 January 2026. So disappointed. We paid full price too. Not even a discounted trip.
