    We have spent an amazing time with Pay less India tour! Mithun, our driver speaks perfectly English and has been very helpful and flexible in every situations. The tour was also very reactive when we needed to call them. The hotels were all very luxurious and top quality. Overall this tour saved us a lot of a time in transportation and allowed us to feel safe as we were 2 women travelling. We chose the tour in Rajasthan that included the Ranthambore safari (tigers) and we haven’t been disappointed at all. We highly recommend it!

    Review for Our Amazing Driver, Rohit We recently completed an incredible journey across India, covering cities like Delhi, Agra, Ranthambore, Jaipur, Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Kumbhalgarh, Udaipur, Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Pune, Mahabaleshwar, Goa, Mangalore, and Kochi. This unforgettable adventure wouldn’t have been the same without our amazing driver, Rohit. Rohit’s driving skills are truly exceptional. Whether navigating the bustling streets of Delhi, the winding roads of the Western Ghats, or the narrow lanes of old cities like Jaisalmer and Udaipur, we always felt safe and secure. His calm demeanor behind the wheel gave us complete peace of mind, even during long journeys like our 11-hour trip from Mahabaleshwar, 9 hours from Goa to Mangalore, and 13.5 hours from Mangalore to Kochi. What set Rohit apart was not just his driving but also his extensive knowledge of each region. He shared fascinating insights about the history, culture, and hidden gems of every city we visited. His fluent English made communication effortless, and he was always ready to answer our questions or suggest local spots that enhanced our experience. Thanks to Rohit, we had a seamless, enjoyable, and enriching journey across nine states. His professionalism, friendly nature, and dedication to making our trip memorable were truly commendable. We couldn’t have asked for a better driver and guide. Thank you, Rohit, for making our adventure one we’ll cherish forever!. My son, husband and I can’t thank you enough!

    I recently completed a 14-day tour of Rajasthan with Payless Tours, and it was an extraordinary experience. While I initially expected to join a group, I found myself traveling solo. Despite this unexpected twist, the tour was wonderfully executed, showcasing the professionalism and commitment of Payless Tours. From the start, their communication was exceptional. They responded to my queries swiftly and efficiently, both before and during the tour. This level of responsiveness reassured me and set the tone for what turned out to be an incredibly well-organized journey. Everything went smoothly, thanks in no small part to my driver, Prakash, whose tireless energy and genuine desire to please were remarkable. His dedication made all the difference, ensuring I felt comfortable and cared for throughout the trip. The tour itself was a sensory delight. Rajasthan is a land of stunning contrasts, vibrant colors, and warm hospitality. The local people were welcoming and often eager to be photographed, adding a personal and memorable touch to the experience. Shopping opportunities were plentiful, offering unique items I never knew I wanted, and the entire journey felt like a vibrant celebration of culture and tradition. Ranthambhore National Park, a highlight of the itinerary, delivered a serene and authentic wildlife experience, even though I didn’t manage to spot a tiger. It was a reminder that nature is unpredictable, and the park’s unspoiled beauty more than made up for the absence of tiger sightings. The local guides were mostly excellent, providing valuable insights and enriching the experience at every stop. However, in a couple of instances, language barriers made communication a bit challenging. While this was a minor drawback, it didn’t detract significantly from the overall quality of the tour. Accommodation throughout was excellent, with comfortable and well-maintained hotels that added a touch of luxury to the journey. The balance of sightseeing, cultural immersion, and relaxation was thoughtfully planned, ensuring that every day brought something new and exciting. In summary, this was a fabulous, well-planned, and beautifully executed tour. Payless Tours deserves commendation for their attention to detail, excellent organization, and the warmth and professionalism of their team. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone considering a journey through Rajasthan.

    A very well thought out and cultural tour. We believe it gives you a good taste of the best parts of Rajasthan. Neeraj the organiser was very reponsive and Prakash our driver was 1st class, nothing was too much trouble.

    Planned a trip to India from Singapore. Came across Paylesstoursindia and saw that it had plenty of excellent reviews so got in touch with them. I really can't speak highly enough of them, they have really been excellent with their recommendations and advice. Extremely thorough with their planning. We already had an idea of what we wanted to see/do, the classics: Taj Mahal, Jaipur , Jodhpur and beach rest before travelling home. We had already self booked international flights. We dealt with Neeraj he spoke very good English and was fast and efficient with his responses. Communication was mainly by whatsapp and facetime calls. We had 14 days at our disposal and he advised us on how long we should stay in each place. They organised the internal flights ,accomodation which we decided to upgrade to 5 star hotels based on our needs and private car transport from/to hotels and airport with always a reliable and friendly driver. Honestly apart from booking international flights they took care of everything else! They were constantly available through whatsapp for any query we might have, really excellent service for a pretty much stress-free holiday. Considering this was our first holiday in India asia and not having had any experience in the region this really was great. We had a really fantastic time in India and there are places we would certainly love to revisit, this wonderful experience was certainly due to the efficient organisation and support offered by Paylesstoursindia.

    We just completed our tour with Paylesstoursindia and Sammu who was our driver for 2 weeks! We had an amazing time because he was so protective of us the entire time. The transport provided was spacious and plenty of AC! Sammu was extremely professional and patient. Eva the lady from the travel agency accommodated what we needed and we were so grateful for being in touch with us no matter if it was evening or Sunday. Definitely work with Payless - they are great!
