2-weeks in India with an injury
India

Dec 20 - Jan 2, 2024
Ravi, Aditiya and his team made our 2-weeks in India fantastic. After my husband was injured a few weeks before our trip, Ravi helped to accommodate us with a wheelchair and reassured us the trip was still possible. Thanks to our great guides and expert drivers, we still did almost all of our original itinerary. Communication was great in planning and while in the country. We visited 6 different cities and every staff, guide, and driver were great. Particularly, our driver Sachen in Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur was fantastic and a joy to spend our vacation with. Everything felt very organized except for some hiccups in Mumbai at the end of our trip, which seemed to lack some communication and foresight. All the hotels were very nice. We especially loved Udaipur and the beautiful location of the hotel right on the lake.
Hotel Reviews
Gorgeous location and rooms. Was a dream eating meals at dawn and dusk outside. Walls in the room were a bit thin so could hear lots of outside noise.
Somewhat outdated and the rooms, hallways, etc were a bit roughed up with scratches and chips. Great breakfast.
Activity Reviews
Very memorable and wonderful to experience the spiritual nature of Varanasi. Our guide Mohan took us to chairs on a balcony overlooking the ceremony which was much more comfortable, especially to be away from the crowd.
So unique and a great way to experience the traditions
Went mid-morning as the guide Povin advised there would be a lot of fog during sunrise. So glad we went later just as the fog broke so we could marvel at the beauty of the Taj Mahal in all its grandeur. Lots of crowds, but our Povin did a great job of navigating around them and taking great pictures still.
Amber Fort and Palace were so beautiful. I wasn't sure what to expect but it was amazing to walk around and see the grandeur that still exists and imagine what was. Jantar Mantar (the astrology instruments) was very unique and fascinating. Our guide Ahjay did a nice job explaining all the instruments.
We really enjoyed our tour with Shilpa. She had great insights about the interesting architecture of Mumbai, and we learned a lot about Gandhi and Indian history. She also took us for a food tour which was a big highlight of our trip to try different dishes at the spots locals enjoy.
