This was a great trip full of wonderful and varied experiences plus a number of highlights including: Bodh Gaya and important Buddhist sites, Varanasi, the Taj Mahal, Shimla and The Golden Temple at Amritsar. Travelling by train proved to be fascinating and a good way to meet people, even if it was not always totally comfortable. Pemba was an excellent tour guide, caring, well organised, knowledgeable and extremely likeable. I would certainly recommend the trip as a good way to explore this part of northern India.
This tour gave me a complete taste of India, from the bustling streets of Delhi to the serene backwaters of Kerala. Every destination was thoughtfully planned and the local experiences were exceptional.
"This tour company organized my 10-day trip in India, which included visits through Delhi, Agra with the Taj Mahal, Ranthambore for a safari, Jaipur, and Varanasi. Overall, this felt like a perfect introduction to India, with each city offering completely different experiences in a concise manner. In addition, the tour operator offered additional options in each city that further tailored the experience based on individual preferences. Just a great, organized set-up where it felt that you were able to enjoy the cultural experience - while at the same time having the appropriate amount of time to refresh/reset for a holiday. The value/cost of the tour - from service, experience, hotels, etc - was great.
The entire tour was very well set-up from start to finish, and could not have been more happy with the entire experience. In every instance, there are experienced individuals to assist you in every aspect of the visit to avoid any confusion or lost time - from pick-up at the airport to private drivers to reputable tour guides. The private driver throughout the tour was a great, kind individual and felt very safe throughout the trip. Further, the tour guides selected by the tour operator were great. You could tell that this company had developed a very good niche in the market over time with hiring/selecting these individuals, given their vast experience and knowledge; in addition to their desire to answer all questions and hold good dialogue and conversation throughout the tour (everyone spoke very good English for Westerners).
Finally, the main contact points organizing and managing the trip were exceptional. They always available for any further assistance (even calling my upon arrival) - which all added to the personal touch of the experience. Also, in my case, I actually forgot some personal items on my trip back to India and they assisted with shipping back to me. You can very much tell that these individuals made huge efforts throughout to make the most out of this unbelievable experience. To both Mr. Azhar and Ms. Anu - thanks again for all the assistance throughout the entirety of the trip! Very much appreciated!"
In sights, sounds, smells, it was exhilarating. Culturally, historically & religiously, my eyes were opened much wider. I immensely enjoyed the total experience. Kudos to CEO, Som and to Gadventures! Thank you
Join us on this 3-day guided tour of Varanasi, a city in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh that dates back to the 11th century B.C. Regarded as the spiritual capital of India, the city draws Hindu pilgrims from all over the world who come to take a dip in the Ganges and worship in its shrines.
Start your trip by visiting some of the major cultural landmarks of the city, including Manas and Vishwanath temples. Explore some of its famous ghats and see an evening aarti. Enjoy a morning boat ride on the river and travel to Sarnath, where the Buddha gave his first sermon. We will drop you off at the airport or the train station in Varanasi after the trip is over.
I feel like I've seen as much of India as possible in a month. There was a full range of activities that included "must-see" sites. There was a balance of occasional free time without sacrificing getting as much out of our day as possible! The high opinion I have of your CEOs has remained intact--I don't know how you are able to harvest such high quality individuals to lead the tours. I love G Adventures.
A wonderful taster of India, curated to take the hassle away from me so I could enjoy the experiences. As a solo traveller the smallish group gave a sense of security and also enabled us to make friendships. The CEO really tied it all together and I had a fabulous time.
We had an excellent tour of Golden Triangle and Varanasi thru Ghuam India Ghuam company. We highly recommend Praakash Chaubey as a great tour guide in Varanasi. He was very knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. He took us to many interesting places including Sacred Ganges River, many temples and world famous evening prayer ceremony. He told us many interesting facts and showed us real Varanasi. We highly recommend him if you visit Varanasi
I started the tour with some sight seeing in Delhi and continue with Agra and Jaipur tour. It was an amazing trip especially for solo trip and the first timer in India. Mr. Tarun Joshi and Rajesh from Agra both are very professional. They take care of me during my trip and make sure all run smoothly and I enjoy the trip. Mr. Saurav is a very great person, he take cares all of my requests especially visit to Varanasi very professional. If you plan a visit to India don't think twice just contact him and you will enjoy the trip and their service. I will come back again soon to visit another part of India.
I must say that we had a wonderful holiday. I would like to thank you and the whole team involved with this tour so much for everything you did to ensure we had the best vacation!!!
It was so nice to have contacts to pick us up and take us where we needed to go. The Guides and Driver were really very good. All the accommodations at Jaipur and Agra were perfect.
We will not hesitate to recommend your services to our friends and relatives.
Best regards.

"We loved our tours and the tour company was able to accommodate all our needs and show us a ton of India in a short amount of time. We jumped around to Varanasi, Delhi, Jaipur, Agra, and Bhopal (on our own for a wedding), and loved every minute of it. Was certainly packed but was our own doing and very fulfilling trip!
Anu and Debasish in particular were great to work with and were very on top of logistics and coordinating everything to meet our interests. Also shout out to Rakesh who was our driver in Delhi and then again from Jaipur to Agra to Delhi — great guy!
All in all, highly recommend!"
