Trip of a lifetime!

Nov 17 - Nov 22, 2025
Overall we give this trip 5 stars. The arrangement with private chauffeur and guides was superior to any group tours we encountered during the 5 days. We will recommend KimKim, Active India, and others for travel in India. We found this tour to be perfect for us, but could be physically challenging for the average tourist.
Arrival in Deli was relatively stress free. Our guide was welcoming and patient. LaLit hotel excellent accommodations and an excellent restaurant for both breakfast and supper. Our soft-spoken driver for that first free day was helpful with New Deli sights.
Mr. Sing our driver for the entire week was awesome, keeping us safe and secure. 5 stars for him too.
Day 1 Guide was very very good with superb english and encyclopedic knowledge. Highlights were Rickshaw ride, the Six temple, and th Gahndi Memorial, Humans Tomb. We did not see Red Fort or Lotus Temple.
Day 2 & 3 The new guide was equally awesome. Highlights were the Agrta Fort and, of course, the Taj Mahal both after noon from across the river and sunrise in the Taj Mahal. We enjoyed the bazaar and the roads surrounding Agra which had an incredible number of wedding venues with human drawn carriages and camel drawn carriages.
Chand Baori step well was the #2 most amazing site that we visited (#1 was Taj Mahal). The guide at Chand
Baori was mediocre (not bad) probably frustrated that we did not speak his native language. We make out OK.
Day 4 & 5 Guide was marvelous. Highlights were Amer Fort and Sheesh Mahal.
We appreciated the shopping opportunities and the lunching restaurants. All of the hotels were great.
Complaints: None.
