The driver was extremely professional and drove smoothly and safely. He took pride in his work and immaculately cleaned his vehicle before each days trip.

- Mmonicagirelli· May 15th, 2019Second time in India, this time my friends and I did the south. India always surprises with its colors and smells but our journey has certainly been improved by our guide Manish, by the driver Mr. Kantha. Wonderful places and hotels, every night a different one, more and more beautiful; from Chennai to the Houseboat in Aleppey. We were on the streets of Madurai in rickshaw and with tuk tuks, we visited the fruit and vegetable markets, fish and the fantastic flower market. Not to mention the temples, so different from the north, colorful and evocative, from Kanchipuram, Mahabalipuram at Thanjavur. Every day there was a new and unique emotion. What to say that on the way we found ourselves attending a bull party. Only! Manish led us to discover Tamil Nadu and Kerala by bathing the elephants or taking us on the tea plantations. It was a unique and unforgettable experience. Thanks MTA Advisor, thank you Manish for making us love India once again.Show moreMTA Destination Management Company commented on this reviewMs Monica Greetings from MTA Destinations. we are really happy that you had an amazing experience in south India, we always Try our best to provide Best services to our clients. Looking forward for your next trip to India, Warm Regards. Manish
