India expert: Ravi

“We had an amazing trip to Rajasthan with Active India which was recommended by Rough Guides. We told Rough Guides what sort of holiday we wanted and where we wanted to go and they suggested a few Companys to look at. We were so happy with our choice. We had a stress free trip, we had a wonderful, careful driver throughout the 14 days and very knowledgeable Guides when visiting each historic site. We would be happy to use Rough Guides in the future.”

“Rough Guides helped tailor a month-long trip to India wbetween ourselves and an Indian based tour company. All communication went through the Rough guides portal, a rough guides agent and the Indian tour company giving us confidence in the choice of tour company. As an added security blanket the payments to the tour company were managed by rough guides through their online secure payment system. I would definitely use Rough Guides again for future trips.”

“Our experience with Rough Guides for our trip to India was excellent. The logistics were seamless, and the staff—representatives, guides, and drivers—were professional and friendly throughout. The hotels mostly exceeded our expectations, the restaurant recommendations were spot on, and the itinerary was carried out smoothly, with no major issues. Overall, we were very satisfied with the service and would highly recommend them.”

“Ravi and the team at Active India have been great. True flexibility on our itinerary and a recognition that we don’t want to be cosseted by our guide 100% of the time!”

“Right from our initial booking enquiry with Ravi, through to our travels in Kerala, our experience with was smooth, practical and tailored so well to our individual needs. All our guides on the our trip were excellent, always on time as arranged, full of local knowledge, and passionate delivering their tours to us. Our trip included such a variety of experiences, from walking city tours, a street food tour, houseboat stay and hiking a mountain. Special mentions to tour guides Saji, our fabulous guide in Kochi, also Sunil in Kochi, and Muthu in Madurai. As well as our guide in Kumarakom whose knowledge was fabulous in explaining all about the Backwaters and the local area. We have to highlight our fabulous driver, Roy, who greeted us each morning with a wonderful smile and drove us safely through India’s mad and busy weaving traffic! He seamlessly coordinated with all our guides to meet on each day and made our trip a real pleasure. Thank you, we will recommend you on to friends and family, and hope to use you again.”

“Rough Guides planned and flawlessly executed my trip to India (Delhi, Agra, Jaipur). We were able to visit 7 world heritage sites in 3 days. We had a driver and private car for 3 days, and a different local guide for each of the 3 cities. Rough Guides arranged all transportation, guides, admissions, and 5-star ITC hotels in each city.”
