India's Golden Triangle

Our recent trip to India exceeded our expectations and this was primarily due to the great service and organisation by Active India. When we started to plan the holiday, Ravi was very professional, responsive, and attentive to our many questions and put in place an itinerary that worked for us in the time period we had an enabled to see a diverse range of places and sites.

Upon arrival, the entire Active India team on the ground proved to be both professional and very knowledgeable. Each destination brought us in contact with high quality local guides who added depth, culture, and warmth to our experience. A special mention to Ardish in Delhi for his fabulous insights, Sanjay in Dharamshala for his welcoming spirit, and Davindra in Varanasi, who helped us connect deeply with the spiritual essence of the city. Our guide in Agra was equally impressive, providing a rich history of the iconic Taj Mahal and beyond.

One of the true stars of our trip was our driver, Sukhjinder. Navigating through India’s famously hectic traffic with ease and skill, he kept us safe and comfortable and got us to our airports on time!

This journey was an enriching, seamless experience, and we owe it to the wonderful team at Active India. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an expertly curated and heartfelt Indian adventure.

My wife and I had an unforgettable 8-day stay in India, and we’d like to thank everyone who helped make it so special.
First, a big thank you to Ravi, who did a fantastic job organizing everything from start to finish.

Our journey began on a high note when we arrived at our hotel in New Delhi and were surprised to find traditional outfits waiting for us—ones we would later wear during the Holi festival in Jaipur. Celebrating Holi was an absolute highlight—throwing colored powder, dancing to traditional music, and being surrounded by so much joy and energy was an experience we’ll never forget.

We felt safe and well taken care of the entire time, thanks to our driver Arvind.
We were also fortunate to have knowledgeable and passionate guides in each city—Varun in Delhi, Manish in Agra, and Vinod in Jaipur. Each of them brought the history and culture of these incredible places to life in their own unique way.

Of course, seeing the Taj Mahal was a dream come true, but another deeply memorable moment was visiting Gurudwara Sis Ganj Sahib, where we had the opportunity to help serve free meals to visitors. It was a humbling and rewarding experience that left a lasting impact on both of us.
India welcomed us with warmth, color, and kindness. We return home with full hearts and unforgettable memories.

We’ve just returned home from our trip to India under the care of Active India Tours (booked via Kim Kim,) and have nothing but positive things to report. My husband and I are usually backpackers who arrange all our own travel, but because we had no idea what to expect of our 1st trip to India, we opted for a more guided experience. Ravi and his team at Active India DELIVERED. From the moment we landed at Delhi airport, we were constantly given guidance and clear expectations of what was to come. Each city guide was kind, capable, and communicative. Misters Singh in Delhi (Ardesh and Dharmendra), Mr. Ronit in Agra, Mr. Sanjay in Jaipur, and our faithful driver Mr. Ajay all took incredible care in hosting us in their cities. The hotels selected for our stays were all spectacular, and were the mix of historical, cultural, and luxury value that I asked of Ravi and kimkim. I wouldn’t hesitate to book a tour to India with Ravi and his team again, and highly recommend it to others, as well.
