Strongly suggest planning the trip

If you want to plan a trip to India, we strongly suggest planning the trip with this tour operator. We just came back from a three week trip to Rajasthan. The tour company helped us build the itinerary and time frame. We had one driver for the three weeks, and different guides in each city. Our driver, Om, was not just excellent, he was fabulous!! He was timely, careful, personable, and accommodating. Driving in India is a daunting task, but he made it look easy. Om knew the roads inside out and never got lost. He kept the car filled with snacks and bottled water. The guides from each city were knowledgeable, engaging and personable. They were all fluent in English, and some of them spoke French as well. Other languages are available. In addition, there was a greeter from the company at each hotel, to welcome us and make sure all was going smoothly. Every day someone from the main office called us to ask about the guide, the visit, the hotel , and wanted to know if there were any problems. There was flexibility in planning and the tour company representatives helped us make some changes in our plans as the trip progressed. It was reassuring to know that someone from the company was always available. They chose beautiful and luxurious hotels in or near the cities we visited. We felt like visiting royalty. Indian hospitality is incomparable. We received turbans, little ceramic elephants, complimentary drinks and special snacks, welcome music, and special attention. The most unusual experience for us was the Damodra Desert Camp in the Thar Desert. There are ten luxury tents complete with bathroom and shower. The stay includes a camel trip in the dunes, watching the sunset in the desert accompanied by musicians playing exquisite Indian music and dancing, dinner and a show. The matre d Mr. Nereyan saw to our every need and welcomed us as if we were entering his own home. He spoke to each guest individually and got to know them. When we left he gave us a souvenir of our stay: a beautifull little ceramic salt and pepper shaker in the form of a camel. Our itinerary included Delhi,Agra, Jaipur, Pushkar, Udaipur, Ranakpur, Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Bikaner, Mandawa and back to Delhi. We learned a lot about Rajasthan and India in general. My wife and I highly recommend this company to organize your visit.

Unforgettable trip to India

My boyfriend and I did a 3 week trip to India in September and travelled to Delhi, Varanasi, Khajuraho, all over Rajasthan, Goa and Mumbai. Our entire trip from the hotels to the transportation to the tour guides was booked through this agency. It made our trip easy and seamless and we had excellent English-speaking tour guides just for the two of us throughout. Definitely recommend the zip line in Jodhpur it has the best view of the blue city, as well as checking out some of the restuarants the agency suggests. They also offered us the best price after having consulted easily with 20 agencies. Thank you for making our trip unforgettable! Aleks from Canada. Aleksandra Jeremic

Big thanks to the team

Dear Nishant, Ragu and Ahmer, We have just returned from our trip to Rajasthan and have had a great holiday! I wanted to send an email to thank you and your team for making our holiday very memorable, from Ahmer for dealing with the initial enquiry and booking, Ragu for finalising the trip and Nishant for the daily phone calls to check everything was ok. Drivers Our biggest thanks goes to our driver, Mangiram, who was a real pleasure to have had with us on our trip. He was very knowledgeable and we always felt very safe with him during the long distances we were travelling. He is an asset to your company and we would be grateful if you would pass on our thanks to him personally. We were lucky to be given his nephew, Vikash, as a driver on the final part of our trip in Delhi and was also very good in making sure we made the best of the limited time we had in Delhi. Company reps We also thank the reps who visited us at the hotels and ensured a smooth check in and arranged activities for us. A special mention must be made of your rep Ahmed who met us at the airport in Delhi on the first day, again when we arrived from Udaipur and who also dropped us at the airport on our final day. Our flight was slightly delayed and he waited some time to welcome us. As we also had a limited time in Delhi, he went above and beyond his duty to help us find some places where we wanted to shop and stayed with us until we had finished. Tour guides We booked some tour guides in Agra, Jodhpur and Udaipur through your company. All of the guides, Jugnoo, Surendra and Umad, were very passionate and knowledgeable, and we thoroughly enjoyed the time they spent with us explaining the rich history of the places we visited.

Smooth, Scenic, and Superbly Organized I joined a 6-Day Marangu Route hike with Kilisa Tours, and the whole experience was seamless. The accommodations in the mountain huts were cozy, and the support staff made sure we were always comfortable. Our guide shared fascinating stories about the mountain s history and wildlife. Everything ran perfectly on schedule, and the company s attention to detail was impressive. I ve done many treks before, but Kilisa Tours stands out for their genuine care and world-class service. Couldn t have asked for more!
