Jul 30 - Aug 16, 2023

This was the second time I booked my trip with KimKim and I got not disappointed at all after the expectations were super high because of my Vietnam, Cambodia trip earlier this year. So, thumbs up for the amazing concept and how KimKim manage to implement it worldwide!
First of all I want to thank Ravi Tickoo from Active India for planning our trip... Wow, that was not an easy task and he did an amazing job. After several weeks of fine tuning, we got it and where ready to go. During the... read more

Ravi made every effort to understand what we were looking for and did an amazing job planning out the itinerary in detail. I had a mix of phone/email interactions to finalize our plans.
We had a mix of city, culture and nature in Delhi, Agra, Jaipur and Udaipur. Our guide Ajay was with us through the whole trip. He was very knowledgeable and keen to ensure that we got the full experience. The drivers too were experienced and professional.
The Taj Mahal in all it’s views is... read more

Wow! Incredible North & South India! Thank you so much to Ravi and his team at Active India for their exceptional organisation and exciting itinerary!

Our trip to India was amazing. A once in a lifetime experience. We visited Agra, Jaipur, and Delhi over 8 days. Our driver, Prakash, was excellent. I don't know how he managed to dodge all the autorickshaws, motorcycles, pedestrians, and assorted animals without a scratch on the car! We loved the Taj Mahal, the stepwells, and the Amber Fort. Shopping in Jaipur was outstanding - we probably spent too much! The hotels were all excellent. Thank you Ravi and team for putting this... read more
Dear Marc,
Thank you so much for taking out time and leaving us a review. We are pleased to hear that you had a nice, enjoyable, and memorable time in India.
Thank you so much for your valuable feedback about the tipping. Since we missed sharing the tipping guidelines information sheet with you, hence we are happy to cover Agra guide tipping on your behalf.
Once again, thank you for allowing us an opportunity to travel with us.
We look forward to welcoming you or your friends again for the next India experience,
Best Regards,
Ravi & Team Active India

Ravi did an amazing job creating the ideal experience for our trip. We wanted: mountains, nature, tea, and history. And that is exactly what we got. Amritsar and staying at Ranjit’s Svaasa is a must do in order to learn and see the Golden Temple and Community Kitchen. I will also add visiting the India-Pakistan Border Ceremony as a truly unique experience. Next, McLeodganj is an oasis of peace and serenity. The mountains, monastic life, and connection to nature are unparalleled. Sonu, the... read more
Dear Dani,

I’m so glad to hear that we were able to make your experience with us a memorable one and that you enjoyed all of the amenities we offer. I will pass on your compliments about the Guide – he is very enthusiastic about what he does! We hope that in future visits you’ll have an opportunity to try more of what we offer.

AMAZING!!! We knew when our daughter said she wanted to take her senior trip to India that it was going to be a trip of a lifetime... but we never imagined it would be as amazing as it was! This was in HUGE part to Jay!!! Jay was incredible during the entire booking process. He listened to feedback, gave wonderful recommendations and everything he booked was perfect. During the trip he was equally as responsive when we added excursions. I would recommend Jay and Bespoke India Holidays... read more

Active India was assigned responsibility for our five day tour of India (from Delhi to Jaipur to Karauli and Agra) after I contacted Kim Kim ton help arrange our visit. The Active India team, led by Ravi Tickoo, jumped right on the assignment and with just a couple of emails, we had our itinerary all set. As promised, our driver and another Active India staff member met us at our hotel in Delhi and in no time, we were off to our first destination.... read more

The professionalism and hospitality of all the staff from Active India Holidays, including tour guides, driver and itinerary designers are top notch and exceeded my expectations.

Incredible, once in a lifetime trip for
start to finish! Loved being able to customize our itinerary to eliminate tourist traps and see a little bit of the real
India and Nepal. The best part of our trip was our guides and drivers.
We started with Raj and Ravi in New Dehli. Ravi was such a safe and courteous driver. Especially given how chaotic the roads can be, his skills were extremely impressive!
In Kathmandu, Mugtha was an incredible guide. He knew the country in and out. He... read more

Jan 27 - Feb 13, 2023

Our 16-day trip was planned around a visit to the Taj Mahal, which we saved for the end. And it was even better than we imagined! Most of our time was spent visiting forts, palaces, temples and other historic sights in Rajasthan. By our request, we mostly stayed in heritage-type hotels. A highlight (among many) was seeing a mating pair of tigers in Ranthembore National Park -- up close and personal! Our excellent travel planner, Ravi Tickoo, worked with us every step of the way to insure we... read more

Just back from a wonderful Golden Triangle Tour of India with Bespoke India Holidays. We have begun referring to this trip as "India for Beginners" because we have realized that we have barely scratched the surface of this vast nation, and that's with a very full 8 days of it under our belts! Jay, who organized our trip, placed us in terrific hotels with great breakfasts and wonderful service -- shoutout to Taj Palace in Delhi, and Trident Agra in Agra. (We self-booked at the Hyatt Regency... read more

Our family of five had the most incredible time in India. Jay crafted the perfect itinerary for us, and was always professional and highly responsive when we asked questions or made specific requests (particularly for our daughter's birthday). All three of our guides along the Golden Triangle (Raj in Delhi, Brijesh in Agra, and Hatesh in Jaipur) were so warm, engaging, and knowledgeable. And our driver for the week, Jasvinder, was always on time, waiting for us with a smile and cold bottles... read more

Working with Ravi was a pleasure from beginning to end. He was incredibly patient, helpful, and accommodating while we were planning the trip and making multiple changes to the itinerary. He and his team made for a super smooth experience once we got to India by providing excellent, timely service and making sure they were always available to help with our requests. All the guides, local representatives and drivers we worked with were very professional and always on time. I particularly... read more

Had an incredible trip to India! Jay was very attentive and listened to my needs to build an incredible itinerary for me. He was even able to include a celebration on Holi for me to attend (when people would normally not be working) which was much appreciated and a once in a lifetime experience! My trip overall was the perfect balance of activity highlights and downtime. As a solo traveler I felt safe at all times. Had great tour guides and drivers and attentive staff greeting me and making... read more

I cannot praise the KimKim team enough. From the very start when we were planning our trip, Ravi was not only hugely helpful, but exceptionally flexible and understanding, making multiple changes to the itinerary. Ravi was always super quick in responding to our queries.
Throughout the trip the local guides and our driver looked after us beautifully. Guides were not only knowledgeable but fun and flexible, responding to the needs of the group. Would particularly pick out Jay in Delhi... read more

Let's start from the beginning :)
I use KimKim for a while and had no doubt that I will use it again for India and Nepal trip.
Then I found Bespoke India Holidays and Jay :)
I can describe in a few words the service - fast , trustworthy, safe, exceeded my expectations as an agent.
The holiday was organised for may parents-in-low. They travel a lot and have high expectations.
Their opinion after the trip is:
- amazing planning
- exceptional guides. Especially in Nepal.
- great... read more

Ravi was extremely helpful in sorting out our 8 day trip between Mumbai and Delhi. He arranged for 4 different hotels, excellent guides and all transport. We never felt alone, although we also enjoyed the intrepid nature of moving from place to place. We saw fantastic temples in Khajuraho and Bhopal. The safaris were all good (although the lack of wildlife is a reality). Our drivers did their utmost to find a tiger- and we finally got lucky. Our train trips were fun, and the drivers taking... read more

From start to finish, Ravi and his team were totally professional and gave an excellent service. Six of us were on the tour that Ravi organised for us and the itinerary was varied and perfectly adapted to meet with our requests. A lovely combination of visiting famous sites with getting to know the cities and visiting local craftsmen. The minibus was comfortable and our driver was kind and considerate, always making sure the bus was spotlessly clean in the morning and that the cool box was... read more
